Season 1982-83 part three. Falling attendances, financial constraints and a gradual changing of the guard.
All four episodes of the 1982/83 season released during the World Cup break.

I've probably said this on an earlier episode but the mix of contemporary music, local news footage, subtle social commentary and at times ultra-rare match footage continues to make this the best series on youtube. As is obligatory after such praise, I have to point out that I support one of Leeds' trad enemies (CFC), if only to emphasise that this really is one for the whole family, even Auntie 'Millwall' Doreen.
I'm a Leeds fan. but I would love to see other videos of this type, and quality about other clubs in the same era.
This series is easily in favourite all time KZhead watches! Brilliant I don’t even support Leeds. This is excellent
Totally agree. Up there with the best stuff on KZhead
I don't even support Leeds either! It's class
Brilliant! And that clip of Lukic with no change...
He later joined Arsenal at the end of the season
Paul Hart and Arthur Graham later left ....but surprise surprise ... An old favourite would be coming back .
Brilliant again,was In that train crush at Barnsley remember seeing that now Royal Family lickspickle Witchell there with the TV cameras
I remember Nick Witchell, on a TV quiz, referring to Maradona as that “Argentine Foot Baller” the split spelling is apt. There may have been several more T’s in there. He may have been that “Argentine Footttttt Baller”. Anyone who can pronounce it like that is not a person with natural affinity for the game. I imagine Witchell was straight into the Producers office on Monday morning and telling them “l do not do Footttt Ball and I do not do Barnssss Ley”. The hooliganism was probably a good grounding for covering the Royals though.
Not a Leeds fan but love this series and the high sense of irony in the narrative. I played against John Sheridan at school when we were 12. Nicholas Witchell went from football reporter to Royal correspondent (easy life).
Stopping Lukic in the high street for money reminds me of that BBC clip from a few years back when an interviewer was asking people on the street in Liverpool if they remembered a particular FA Cup match between Liverpool and Everton in the 60's and one of the people they asked was an old feller who turned out to be Tommy Lawrence, the Liverpool GK who played in the game!
No videos for 10 months, and then 4 in 3 weeks ! Excellent !
Like the World Cup
My first ever Leeds match was the Barnsley away game. I was a 12 year old boy and my dad took me as a birthday surprise. What I remember apart from the game was been penned in at the end of the game while rocks and cellotape balls with nails in rained down on the Leeds fans and police on horse back smashing man and boy with truncheons..Needless to say It put me off going anywhere near a football match till 1990, that's when I started going again cos I was older. I still carry the mental scars of that Oakwell game...brilliant vid yet again.
Outstanding work, really is the most evocative work of the 70s and 80s out there.
Another masterpiece again about the club I love and hate sometimes lol watching these takes me right back to my early days of supporting Leeds thanks for bringing them back MOT
Brilliant again. How low we had sunk just 9 years after winning the league. A constant throughout the series has been the calamities of Kevin Hird. Back passing was an art form he never really mastered.
A overrated buy actually. Never fulfilled the potential.
Hird was shocking.
@@AlexMcDougallPhotography Wasn't he an Adamson buy, from Blackburn?
@@CB-xr1eg I think so.
The Specials Ghost Town timeless classic
Big THANKS again, really enjoying these 👍
Well done guys - these videos and the soundtracks are absolutely brilliant - peels back the years !
Great stuff, as always.
What an assist by Lukic
65k for McNab more than we could afford, Now players earn more than that a week, What a difference 40 years make.
Anyone miss the old numbers 1 to 11
At least things were going well for Lukic off the park
excellent as always..... that QPR game was the worst leeds game I've ever seen, and that's against some considerable competition. Couldn't stand venables then and he did sod all for us as a manager, overrated. Proud to say i was one of the mugs, sorry, die hards at the Shrewsbury game, shame i can't remember any of it. Can remember mcnab though even if he did only make 4 appearances, aint memories funny
Every fan of all club Dream to get a série like that. Lucky i am Lazio and Leeds fan
I had no idea Leeds were in that much financial difficulty. Astonishing how it was allowed to get to that point. Wasn't Ghost Town from the season before? Summer 81?
The elland road pitch during that rugby game reminds me of Derby county pitch in the seventys💩😊
Not a Leeds fan but fair play their away fans still turned up in numbers in the 80s when attendances were at an all time low
The newsreader looks like Keeley Hawes 3:50
No , it’s Jan Leeming , very nice too!
Terry Hall 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Didn't dwell on the Milk Cup defeat to the Terriers then... played Leeds off the park that night.
If the film existed, it would have been in there. The intention is to show the defeats as much as the victories.
@@Lufcfilms Fair enough.
Lukic can kick a long way.
Some o the leeds fans monkey chanting Winstone Campbell at Barnsley just before the penalty was awarded and Terry Connor was playing in a Leeds shirt that day ☹
Who was the subject of monkey chants in the previous episode of this documentary, the league Cup game at Newcastle. Terry Connor that is.
