Duncan McKenzie was an absolute genius. If he was Brazilian they would have built their international team around him. Born in the wrong country. Anyone who saw him will never forget him.

I've damaged my Achilles several times so I know how Gordon must have felt. I'm 43 and did it again a couple of years ago playing 5 aside after work. I don't think I'm going to make it to the premier league at this rate :)

Duncan McKenzie was class. Another of the great mavericks of the 70s (osgood, Marsh, Currie, Worthington, Bowles, Hudson..etc...)

That pass by Bremner at 8:30 is near-perfection. MOTD would have a whole feature on it if De Bruyne or Fabregas did it these days. You barely hear anything about that side of Bremner's game.

The four lads Tony Currie, Duncan McKenzie, Gordon McQueen and Joe Jordan should have been the core of a new Leeds side, and not sold. Bremner, Giles, Madeley, Hunter, Clarke, Lorimer etc..... these were the greats who we knew had to be replaced, but it was the loss of those top younger players that eventually cost Leeds.

@billymorton4506 7 жыл бұрын

couldn't agree more, as a LFC fan, I couldn't believe Jordan and McQueen going to a major rival at the time.

@seltaeb3302 2 жыл бұрын

Agree but great players have too move on to build another side, Liverpool were masters at this & selling good players to refit the side if it suited Shanks & Paisley. Leeds got hampered by the old guard who still played great but it all fell over a cliff edge. Cantona was again another stupid sell.

The mid 70s...Leeds still a very powerful team, Stylo Matchmaker boots, Keith Macklin commentating....good memories. Interesting to see MacKenzie, who was a Clough signing (I think), receiving no less adulation from Bremner et al than Clarke when scoring. I was under the misapprehension that MacKenzie, O'Hare and MacGovern weren't liked by the old guard when Clough bought them. Would like to hear what Leeds fans of the time remember about this ?

@seltaeb3302 2 жыл бұрын

O'Hare & McGovern were just pawns on Clough's chessboard. He needed them to feel at home plus top pros. The old guard didn't hold any bad feeling at all towards them & knew them well on the pitch but it must of felt odd for them & they lasted more than 44 days!

I think it was when McKenzie played for Everton that Granada's Kick Off programme asked him why he smoked. His answer was 'so that he could keep his fitness levels down to that of all the other players'.

Duncan was a genius and he gave me so much pleasure as a Leeds fan. A lot of rubbish is spoken , that he was a fancy dan etc and did not fit the fit the team ethic.

@seltaeb3302 2 жыл бұрын

Well Don Revie's Leeds was about the Team, that came first & selecting players who would fit. Don would never have bought Duncan or even George Best because they play their brilliant way alone. All Revie's players had their top skills within the Team. To understand Revie you must understand the Team ethic he fostered & nurtured. Clough was ironically the exact same. Stan Bowles, Hugh Curran were a one man team & Bowles was never staying there long. He didn't. When Don left for England then Leeds slowly changed & then imploded. At England he tried to foster his Team Way but some liked it, most didn't. Clough would have been the same in the England job.

@@seltaeb3302 I fully understand what Revie was about in all things. From 1971 he let the team of the leash , they became more expressive , perhaps Duncan could have fitted into that? Best was a hard worker and a genius , i think Revie would bought him , given half the chance!

Interesting to see that even though 'segregation' was kicking in by now (no pun intended) there were still Reds in with the Leeds fans. I remember those days, you'd always get about 50 or so, normally the part closest to the Scoreboard Paddock and if was going to kick off, that would be where. Great vids these by the way, great throw back. Might hate Leeds 'we all hate Leeds' - but great shared experience!

That's real football. The pitch played an important part in the game. The Baseball Ground had a terrible pitch come the 3rd week of Aug! But you got great skill & matches there. When was the last time you saw mud on a player's strip. Now it's just kicking a ball about on a big snooker table. Boring.
