Remember when players always used to be pictured swigging from a bottle of milk in the days before energy drinks? I like Bill’s matching sheepskin coat and gloves on this 1966 shot.

Boot trouble for Billy…Bremner and Les Cocker inspect his studs on a muddy, icy pitch with a cinder track that looks like a ploughed field. Not Elland Road I don’t think?

There were a lot of #LUFC team shots taken from Fullerton Park steps in the 60s and 70s. This one is interesting as it shows the old ticket office with a typical midweek queue of flask-carrying elderly men in hats and overcoats buying west stand tickets!

Battle of Goodison 1964- Giles’ tackle is slightly high on Sandy Brown,leaving stud marks on his chest. Brown chins him and gets a red. Willie Bell knocks Derek Temple out in a 50/50.Ref takes the teams off and they re-emerge to ‘Dirty Leeds’ from the whole ground!

‘Billy’s usual mix of dark gritty menace, the underworld and football, now set against the backdrop of swinging 60s Leeds.’ #LS65

Happy 78th birthday Eddie Gray….pictured here deciding whether it’s worth spoiling that perfect Beatle-cut to head the ball for a photo shoot on Fullerton Park.

When footballers had style - a classic #60sLeeds photo from Andrew Varley. Giles’ full length leather, Sprake’s pocket square, Madeley’s suit and polo shirt combo, and Bill’s Stylo bag and cig…all that’s missing is his usual trilby! 👏🏻

Big Jack outside ‘His’ menswear shop and basement coffee bar in Harehills c.1969. The shop burnt down in 1971, possibly due to a discarded cig from Jack or Billy!

Always good to have a few options in goal but rare to see 4 on one team photo. Can anyone name them all?

Peacock, Madeley and Norman looking cool in their golfing gear. JG looks like his wife made him wear something her mother had knitted him for Christmas!

Need an Xmas gift idea for someone who’s into swinging sixties Leeds, Mods, scooters, dance halls and pills, and Revie’s Leeds chasing the double? Look no further… #LS65

A familiar sight at Elland Road in the 60s and 70s- a big queue for cup tickets. Can anyone guess the match? Clue- it’s not for a final!
#LUFC #60sLeeds #LS65 #Leeds #ALAW
Someone posted this on Facebook about Elland Road in the late 60s. Anyone remember Sammy, King of the Kop and these chants? Can’t see these being resurrected somehow…

Some more of Tony Levison’s previously unseen Albert Johanneson photos- his dad invested in a high tech colour camera so the photos now become better quality. Willie Bell was another regular visitor to their house.AJ was living in Moortown at the time.

My pal the footballer…Some more of Tony Levison’s Albert Johannesson photos. Tony is the little lad in the photos taken in the early 60s. His dad owned Project records on the same Harehills parade as Big Jack’s shop so got to know a lot of the players.
#LUFC #LS65 #ALAW #60sLeeds #Leeds
Another previously unseen photo from Tony Levison’s collection - Billy and a team mate on straw-shifting duty in front of the Scratching Shed probably around 62/63. I’ll be very impressed if anyone gets the other lad- I had to ask Tony!
#LUFC #60sLeeds #LS65 #MOT #Leeds
Tricky one this! The answer was that next to Don are best man Grenville Hair,Noel Peyton, Willie Bell and Freddie Goodwin. Must admit I had to ask Tony who Peyton and Goodwin were…

Another of Tony Levison’s fantastic Albert Johannesson photos. Can anyone name the 4 team mates pictured here with Don and the happy couple? I had to ask Tony who a couple of them are…

Another of Tony’s photos which may never have been seen outside the family before- Don Revie with the newly wed Johannesons and best man Grenville Hair. Looks like Willie Bell on the right, anyone know who the bloke in between them is?
#LUFC #60sLeeds #LS65 #ALAW #MOT
2/2 I’ve been in contact with a bloke called Tony whose dad was a great friend of Albert’s in the 60s. He was also a keen photographer and had a high quality camera. Tony is digging out some more photos like this, and I’ll share them when I get them.

Albert Johanneson’s 1963 wedding to Jamaican pharmacist Norma Comrie. Looks like Grenville Hair there too, wonder if he was best man?When you watch this footage it’s so sad to think how the story ended. 1/2

Ronnie Hilton and the Leeds team promoting ‘Leeds United Calypso’ in 1964. I can see big Jack, Reaney, Willie Bell, Brian Williamson but no Billy, Bobby Collins, Giles, Hunter or Johannesson. Wonder if AJ wasn’t too keen on his mention in the song…

After the battle, before the bath. Lash, Billy and Jack. What a great photo, never seen this before!

Leeds 4 Everton 1, March 1965. Bremner, Peacock and 2 from Johanneson in front of a 29,000 crowd. The camera gantry was right at the back of the open kop providing a good ‘fan’s eye’ view of the pitch which looks like a ploughed field!

Gary Sprake and Brian Williamson listening to the FA cup 4th round draw on a high-tech hi-fi in 1966. They look happy enough with Chelsea away but we lost 1-0 in front of a 58,000 crowd. Sprake looks like he’s going straight to the old Mecca after…
