Loved the early Wilko era, can't see that been beaten in my eyes. 89/90 would be my favourite season. It had everything.

I'll go with you Lord Springlikedick except I'd have Kevin Blackwell in at 5 on a purely selfish basis. I used to get free tickets and drunk in the manager's office before and after games. What an experience that was with players popping in and out with full kit on etc!!
I also loved the Bremner era as that was when I started seeing Leeds play round the country....Shez, Baird, Snodin, Aspin etc. Thanks mum.... I think ! 👍🙈🤔
Special mentions to McCallister and Eddie Gray purely because they are legends.... 👏
@TC10 yeh I thought about Gary mc and gray. Gary did try to get us playing some decent football.
Wilko Bielsa
O’Leary
Grayson
Early spell with Christiansen
I am old enough to have seen the Revie team but didn’t see them that much so I didn’t count the Don in my list.
The promotion year with Wilko was intense. Missed one home game all season due to an appendix op. I think my season ticket was £70 ! The atmosphere was electric, boosted by Vinnie of course. When Strachan scored the winner against Leicester I’ve never seen ER bounce like it did then.
I thought Christiansen had it early on. Fabulous football but then the wheels fell off almost overnight.
@andyl the Leicester game and the Strachan goal will live with me until I die. I was 15 Yr old and stood in the south stand, it was mental !!.
Bielsa
Wilko
O'Leary
Bremner
Grayson
Bielsa the most influential and memorable, Wilko the most successful, but he sold C***ona and the latter years were poor.
O'Leary team was exciting for a brief period, Bremner was the boss when I first started following and went to ER - and I still remember the playoff final and the FA Cup semi in 1987.
Grayson's record was excellent in that dark era, McAllister honourable 6th....
I just had to give it to Wilko with him winning the old 1st division. Tbf to Bielsa no team nowadays will go up and then win the prem in 2 years.
I only put Graham in at 5 as he steadied the ship and laid the foundation for o'leary.
Am I the only one old enough to have been at a don revie game !!!!
