Leedsista Libre

1998/99 | Golden: West Ham 1-5 Leeds United


Listen Later

From May of 1998/99 — a couple of weeks before we ruined Arsenal's title hopes, Leeds went to Upton Park and gave West Ham a really bad time:


West Ham fans, whose opinion of Harte was low enough after the first half, did not enjoy his somersault, or that he was spinning in front of a stand full of ecstatic Leeds fans, a cheerful pile of white and yellow replica shirts in the early summer sunshine.

  

Leedsista Libre is a free podcast by Daniel Chapman, aka Moxco/Moscowhite for stupid internet reasons. I'm a writer, of the book 100 Years of Leeds United, the film Do You Want to Win?, and of loads of things at The Square Ball, where I was also editing the magazine for yonks and talking on the TSB Podcast for years.  

  

Since 2017 I've been reading my writing out loud for people to hear on the internet, and on Leedsista Libre I'm sharing highlights — or lowlights, this is Leeds United after all — from those years of writing.

One of the kindest things you can do is tell your friends about Leedsista, sending them articles and podcast episodes and getting them to sign up. We still can't beat the good old word of mouth.

Thanks! MOT — Daniel/Moxco
