Spurs fan here and Don was one of the true greats a champion among managers rest in peace
MCFC fan here - Don Revie is still a great figure in our history, respect to him from the Blues.
Mutual and reciprocal respect for the heirs of summerbee, Lee bell,booth etc
Aye, the bed of heaven to the man.
I've had the same respect for your team over the years. You have had some great manager's and players. Don was a great manager it was a big shame that he didn't carry the same into the England set up but it's history now and we can't change that.
Don Revie is just a Leeds UTD out & out legend ! RIP Sir !!
There's only one Don Revie - it sickens me that he doesn't get the credit he deserves outside of Leeds. RIP the Don!
Its because of producing the famous dirty leeds team and the several bribery cases.
7000 he deserved better than that great team and bloke respect from a Man Utd fan
Don was a great manager it was sad that his life was struck down with this horrible disease. You will always be remembered for being one of Leeds United greatest managers of all time.
RIP The great Don Revie 💪👍.
I’m from London, Arsenal fan and I absolutely love Don Revie. Seems like a lovely man and a great manager.
You are absolutely right. A Yorkshire man. A family man. A private man. Not a loud mouth like BC. Never said bad thing about anyone. LOTS OF DIGNITY AND CLASS. RIP.
@@hossainshaikhani1297 he was from Middlesbrough
@@daveratcliffe1016 Middlesborough was in north yorkshire when he was born before boundary changes
Very sad - RIP to all victims of MND😢
Lovely man .. Legend at peace now 😊,❤
I know it was City,i was there,along with the 7000 for Don and the 13000 for John Charles-Our average gate in 88-89 was upto around 19000 due to the feelgood factor from the year before when we almost got to wembley & promoted.The least we could of expected for was a double figure crowd bearing in mind even back then five quid in was peanuts.The feeling at the time amongst many of us was that this was a wasted chance for the people of leeds to show what he did and what he meant to our city.

LUFC were my life as a kid in the late 60's & early 70's, Don WAS leeds, it's great to see him and some of the players i watched every week after so long, but still very sad. there's nothing worse than to see people with deteriorating diseases fade away slowly, and i include cancer, & dementia alongside MND. RIP.
On lockdown in 2020 and watching all these fine managers from the past for the first time.
Don seems highly underated nowadays compared to Shankly, Paisley, Ferguson etc, because of his time with England, but I have been extremely impressed with what he did for Leeds.
He's right up there in the top 5 for me
You are entirely right .. football did their best to tarnish his achievements and airbrush him from history.. aĺl those managerial greats deserve their place at the top table and Dons seat
amongst shouldn't be in doubt..
Check out Howard Kendall
I miss him, poor old don, 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Great manager, great players, great team. They were dominant and they really were that good. The problem was that they were dirty, and they didn't need to be. I think that's why people didn't like them. You then had the thing with Revie walking away fron the England team which further tarnished their legacy.
Leeds were great under Don. We kept coming 2nd a lot too. Runners up this runners up that. But hey great man molded what English clubs should do in Europe. Heck we invented the bloody game after all. Thank goodness I was born to see such a great man do his trade brilliant at club level. RIP uncle Don.
legend...
RIP the Don! MOT
by far the greatest manager ever to grace the english game
his discipline and training programmes are used to this day by your fergusons and your wengers,but the king takes little credit
ALL HAIL THE DON!!!!MOT
I don’t think Revie will ever get the credit he deserves for his achievements, either as a player or manager. I think there was a lot of what you would call ‘professional jealousy’, within the managerial ‘fraternity’, particularly towards other English managers.
7000 !! For what Don did for Leeds ? The stadium should have been sold out
Im not a leeds fan but its hard not to like don revie, rip
I did wonder why such a low attendance? Man United fan here, but absolute respect for Revie, the teams he produced and tge football they played. Was it just a sign of the times? I know in the late 80s attendances were low
best ever for leeds
Nice said m8!
The club should organise another tribute match for the Don, I'm sure it'd sell out as the Chief's did a few years back. All money again to Motor Neurone research =)
MOT
@babyshambler great idea mate
RIP Don. Motor neurone disease is a wicked disease. You dies 2 years before I was born so I never saw you as a manager. One of the best managers ever and RIP
May 1988... disgraceful more people didn't turn out for it...
Why was that the case? I'm not sure I understand - I thought Leeds United loved Revie. Why did the fans stay away? I could understand if Clough had come back to Elland Road, which of course never happened, but Revie was revered during his time on the sidelines, no?
@@RoadCone411 Loads of people attended Don Revie's funeral. All of his old Leeds team did along with other footballing figures like Kevin Keegan, Terry Venables and even Alex Ferguson. I think they were talking about how the FA didnt send a representative
@KitCurranRadioShow
Fair comment R&R - steakaandsid
Motor neurone disease is still incurable!! My sister has it & is bed ridden,can’t move a muscle except for her mouth & eyes
No offence but when he walks on at the beginning its against Man City who he also played for and got an ovation from both sets this was also unanounced and im sure they were around 26,000, as for his charity game it reflects the era before the football boom time and im sure John Charles also didn't sell many but Radebe got a sell out crowd in recent times, 7000 turned up for a charity match which should be applauded and not scourned
Terrible end for a true football man. Cant stand leeds, nffc fan. Just want to say RIP MR REVIE. One last word when england manager hampered by not very good players, just ask keegan.
Alaw
I'm surprised only 7k turned up
SEVEN THOUSAND!!? Only 7000 fans show up to pay tribute! That's humiliating for the great man. Imagine if alex Ferguson had a tribute night at OT and only 7000 showed up there would be outrage. Very poor respect by the fans here
England were far from great when Revie was in charge due to injuries to Gerry Francis, Kevin Beattie & Colin Bell. Had these men been fit it may had been different, though there was no shame in losing out to a powerful Italian side containing Zoff, Bettega, Causio & Gentile.
yes point accepted and you are right, if the motor neurone charity did it again under the Revie name and in todays more accessable publicity and even at the 80's price of a fiver im sure it would be a sell out - one for the charity to think on !
Shame how it ended.walking out on his country for 30 pieces of silver..awful England boss .great for dirty Leeds though
I didn't like the man, but it was as sad end to his life.
ask the arabs
