Dirty Leeds
is a struggling industrialised city in the North of England,
1961. It has seen better days.
Dirty Leeds
is the city’s club, laughably called a
football team, their home ground Elland-road, laughably called a
stadium. Both have seen better days.
Dirty Leeds
is where young Jimmy O’Rourke was born and
bred, brought up by his grandma close to Elland-road. A rare
breed, he is one of the few Leeds United followers of the early
60’s. Even more unusual is his ambition to play professionally
for the team. He is hoping to see better days.
Dirty Leeds
is the label thrown at the Leeds
United team in 1964 by the Football Association. Managed by Don
Revie and containing players such as Billy Bremner, Jack
Charlton, Bobby Collins, John Giles and Norman Hunter, the team
had just won promotion to Division One with a record number of
points, while certain other first teams had much worse
disciplinary records. But mud sticks.
Dirty Leeds
is a hidden history of Don Revie and
his Leeds United men, as they vie to be the best team in not
only England but Great Britain and Europe too. And Dirty
Leeds is the story of Jimmy O’Rourke’s dramatic life from
1961 to 1974.
