One year ago today THAT match against Macclesfield in the Carabao Cup was called off due to a torrential downpour.

Who remembers that night, and which stroke did you use to swim home?

That was some night, never seen rain like it at BP.

We get the bus home just outside the ground so didn't get too wet waiting for it in the bus shelter and it's just a walk across the road where we get off.

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Makes me laugh seeing the groundsman Mike Phillips, with his rolling sponge, trying to clear the standing water. Rumour has it that it took 3 days for them to clear the water off the pitch, as it was that waterlogged and the water table so high that there was nowhere for it to drain away.
