Howard breathed life back into Leeds because as he said it was in steep decline. He rebuilt the club along with fotherby and silver with the east stand development and building Thorp arch which produced some incredibly talented players. He deserves a statue.
For me Wilko is second only to the Don and then El loco. Dunno if I’ll ever see us win the league anymore in my lifetime ,but wilko made it happen. I don’t think he gets enough respect and credit for what he did!
Sir Howard introduced the first ever wing backs to the Premier League namely Garry Kelly and Tony Dorigo. He was also one of the first managers to insist that every club should focus on its own academy. A true Leeds Legend, we love you sir ❤.
Howard Wilkinson the forgotten Leeds United legend 🙏🙌 he needs to be honoured. Sir Bobby Robson what a humble honest man a legendary manager i never knew Sir Bobby recommended Howard Wilkinson 🤝🫶. Fantastic loved this marching on together we all love Leeds keep fighting 🦚🇮🇨🤍💛💙
I knew that one I think Elton John phoned up The DON asking him who do you recommend he told him Graham Taylor the DON and Graham Taylor had worked together on the FAs coarse for manager's M.O.T 🦚🇮🇨
I really wish Bill Fotherby was still with us. What a charismatic man, he’d be absolutely sensational as a podcast guest and can imagine his stories. Beautiful film this, very happy memories. Thank you
He would have won the 1st division with wednesday, if wasn't for our crap board, he Was great for wednesday, I always give him a hug, when I see him out and about around his home in Whirlow in sheffield
Totally agree defo needs a statue. Sergeant Wilko a Leeds United Legend. Marcelo is also a legend but don’t forget Wilko did everything Marcelo did and more. Love you HW. Always Leeds Howard! ❤
That was a great watch, nostalgia and memories of the 90’s came flowing back to some great times, Wilko made a big difference and we need his mindset currently MOT ALAW
@@Southie. Hello 👋 Southie hope your well brother 🙏 just found this channel yesterday it's fantastic marching on together we all love Leeds keep fighting 🦚🇮🇨🤍💛💙 stay safe brother 🙏
Should have gone to Arsenal in 95/96 when he had the chance the way he was fucked over. Playing a number 10 and building a Barca style academy what a waste from short sighted TV men😢
I takes years to build up trust, Howard had that ability to do that, over the years, I've wanted Leeds council to do that, The reason why Wilkinson hasn't had the recognition that he deserves is, Without rhyme or reason and without any interest from Manchester Utd. He sold his best asset to struggling Ferguson. He destroyed the respect that he had there and then. That's why there's no mention of him around Elland Road
I hope once we get a brand new West Stand I hope the club honour Howard Wilkinson with a Statue just outside of main entrance to the West Stand would be fantastic M.O.T 🦚🇮🇨🤍💛💙🫶🤝
Statue of Wilko yes... and Strachan . What an inspiration he was, incredible player and leader.
Beautiful episode. Howard definitely changed the entire mentality of the club at the time. One of the most important figures in LUFC history 🙏
LEGEND

@@SJ-dm3eb couldn’t agree more
The right man at the right time - a United Legend
@@NotBjustD Hear, hear
Tears. Miracles happen at Leeds. Imagine a statue of a smiling Howard with his arm around a smiling Marcelo. Legacy makers those two. Loved.

Don Revie advised then Watford Chairman Elton John on hiring an unknown manager called Graham Taylor.
I knew that one I think Elton John phoned up The DON asking him who do you recommend he told him Graham Taylor the DON and Graham Taylor had worked together on the FAs coarse for manager's M.O.T 🦚🇮🇨
Brilliant manager at that time. Brilliant team and beautiful kit

@@petervickers6301 our pleasure, and completely agree - Bill was one of a kind.
Fantastic video and fantastic memories. 89/90 will always be my favourite season.
Howard Wilkinson knew exactly how to get the job done.....Sgt Wilco was incredible at Leeds United....10/10....
@@rickyraw5457 👊🏻
Absolutely the best manager since Don Revie, and up to press we have not had a manager that comes anywhere close to him.
He would have won the 1st division with wednesday, if wasn't for our crap board, he Was great for wednesday, I always give him a hug, when I see him out and about around his home in Whirlow in sheffield

Best times of supporting Leeds for me ,the man is awesome an Englishman and title winner,he 100% deserves a statue.,MOT
Brilliant this

"You take ten corners you'll score one goal."
Not this current Leeds team. Hundreds of corners with nothing to show.
😂
I’d forgotten how much Fotherby liked the sound of his own voice 😂 Superb documentary really enjoyed it 👍🏼👍🏼
Fotherby could sell ice to Eskimos.
the 1991/92 season 😊
A good man
@@WeAreRobotsUK Indeed
This man needs a statue!

Get that statue up. Tell the owners. Wilko has turned 80, let him live to see that. 🤍
