The O'Leary Years: Football's Greatest Boom and Bust *SIGNED EDITION*
In 'The O'Leary Years,' I take you on a thrilling journey through the rise and fall of Leeds United at the dawn of the 21st century. The moment David O'Leary took over from the stern George Graham, he unleashed a talented horde of youngsters into the first team, transforming a smoothly running operation into a dazzling spectacle. Our oft-dismissed club basked in a popularity like never before, but life at Elland Road is rarely ever plain sailing. From criminal charges against our star players, the heart-wrenching murders of fans, a relentless injury curse to a rampant 'spend, spend, spend' mindset, our beloved club was brought to its knees. Yet, it wasn't all doom and gloom. We came just one match away from our holy grail - a European Cup final rematch with Bayern Munich. This rollercoaster lasted four seasons, and I've penned down the story through my own memories and match reports, evolving from a 14-year-old lad journeying across the country with my dad to an 18-year-old bloke on the bus with my mates, peppered with nostalgic tales of the good old days.
