2018/19 | Cleaning up

From May of 2018/19 — about the origins of Dirty Leeds, and how Marcelo Bielsa was learning what he had inherited that must be defended:

After his exasperated explanation of the implications of the FA's ruling, I expected Marcelo Bielsa to pull up tape of Leeds against Bayern Munich in 1975 and get stuck into UEFA too, and I fully suspect Bielsa is now too far gone with Leeds United for this to be his only season at Elland Road.

Leedsista Libre is a free podcast by Daniel Chapman, aka Moxco/Moscowhite for stupid internet reasons. I'm a writer, of the book 100 Years of Leeds United, the film Do You Want to Win?, and of loads of things at The Square Ball, where I was also editing the magazine for yonks and talking on the TSB Podcast for years.

Since 2017 I've been reading my writing out loud for people to hear on the internet, and on Leedsista Libre I'm sharing highlights — or lowlights, this is Leeds United after all — from those years of writing.

New writing about our consistently daft Super Leeds football club can be found by visiting Leedsista.com.
