Leeds United in the 1960s

The story of Leeds United in the 1960s, how under the managership of Don Revie it became the team that everyone loved to hate as well as champions of England.

Rarely has any club courted as much controversy, ill feeling and bad press as Leeds United in the 1960s. Manager Don Revie transformed them from a struggling Second Division outfit to being arguably the best team in Europe, but they were dogged by the ‘Dirty Leeds’ tag for years. This book covers the period from Leeds United suffering relegation to the Second Division in 1960 under the management of Jack Taylor through to winning their first league championship in 1969, featuring the appointment of Don Revie to replace Taylor, the beginning of the revival under Bobby Collins, the return of John Charles, promotion in 1964 and the emergence of the Dirty Leeds tag, years of nearly things and finally United becoming a trophy-winning European powerhouse.

This period was characterised by some ferocious and bitter rivalries with other clubs and the advent of the professional management team as Revie built both an on-field team and an off-field team that was unrivalled at the time.
