I saw one of those unusual events - a Leeds win under the management of Brian Clough. The winner scored on the back if a deflection from the referee setting up Clarke''s opportunity. Elland Road was an impressive ground - my first proper big stadium. Less impressive was the crowd trouble leaving the ground - the hooliganism of the 70''s is something I don''t miss.
