20 years ago today............
RAISE a glass to 'The Don' – that's the appeal to Leeds United fans today on the 20th anniversary of the death of the club's greatest ever manager.
Don Revie, the man who turned Leeds from Second Division strugglers into Europe's most feared footballing force, lost his fight against motor neurone disease on May 26, 1989.
And, fittingly, the calls for United supporters to take a moment this evening to toast Revie's achievements were led by one of his favourite playing sons, Peter Lorimer.
He told the local press: "He transformed the whole club and gave people in the city a lot of happy memories."
