About this deal

Of course, you might even want to noise up those who give it the Murderball slogans about the Dirty Leeds era. Show them how little you care with a proverbial middle finger in the form of these Dirty Leeds t-shirts ! In 1964, Leeds headed to Merseyside to face off against Everton. By the fourth minute, the first red card came out. Later in the game, two players clashed heads. Fans were warned for gobbing at players. A ten minute break in play even s aw the game threatened with abandonment, such was the madness on the pitch and in the stands. The Don Revie era is obviously a huge part of the club’s history, but it was also the era that spawned the ‘Dirty Leeds’ name, which for many Leeds fans is a badge of honour. Wear this stylish fashion T-shirt at the match, the gym or out on the town and be prepared to turn some heads!

Good old Filthy Leeds. League titles. Domestic cups. A European Cup final that went down as one of the most scandalous in European history. For all of the patter about ‘dirty Leeds’, the greatest cheating that took place in this era happened to Leeds. And how can you find the best Leeds inspired clothing to remind the rest of Yorkshire, and the world, that Leeds fans simply do not care about this history? Don Revie’s Leeds Team This Ringspun pre-shrunk cotton T-Shirt is knit exclusively of deluxe 30s Softstyle™ yarns, resulting in a lightweight, highly uniform fabric that shows off your fresh new Leeds inspired design in all its glory. This T-Shirt is a modern-day essential with Euro fit shoulders and arms for that fitted look. Are you a similar Leeds fan with a similar passion for this era of football? Then why not noise up fans of other teams with some Dirty Leeds merch? For example, this Dirty Leeds hoodie should be the perfect way to get colleagues like at you like you are crazy. It’s always a great way to remind people just how much Leeds fans adore the era; why be ashamed of something so fantastic?While fans today might coo as they watch Bielsaball, older fans will see a similarity to the days of Dirty Leeds. Were the Don Revie teams a bit abrasive? Absolutely. Were they also capable of scintillating football that could, at times, match the aesthetics of other contemporaries of the time such as the Lisbon Lions? Without a doubt. Now, if you know anything about us, you’ll know that we adore the moniker. Leeds fans wear this with pride. Yorkshire is treated quite differently to many of the more compliant parts of the English football scene. We are often seen as rabble-rousers and maniacs. The reality is that Leeds were promoted under Revie with a steely style that also culminated in football so good that it saw them reach European finals and semi-finals with regularity in the era. Of course, this game stands out for one reason among others – Leeds won. 1-0. For the more pious in the footballing community, this is proof that they scrapped, battered, and bludgeoned their way to success.

Specification Dirty Leeds, though, was born in the era when the Don Revie Leeds team simply took nothing for granted. They fought, scrapped, and battled with gusto. The Battle of Goodison Park The president of the Football League at the time, Joe Richards, even tried to blame the sums of money involved for the madness! The press on the day couldn’t wait to get started, though. It was described by John Arlott in the Observer as an ‘unhappy day for English football’. Others, like Guardian reporter Brian Crowther, claimed the referee was ‘not firm enough’. Throughout the famous Leeds United history, there have been various accusations against the club. The Don Revie era is obviously a huge part of the club’s history, but it was also the era that spawned the Dirty Leeds name. Why, though? What made Dirty Leeds a thing? How did it come to pass?

No, this was two competitive teams – arguably two of the most abrasive of the era – going at it hammer and tongs.
