Nicely written. So sorry for your loss.

Ok, but they were competitive before Revie arrived. They were promoted to the First Division in 1924 and finished as high as 5th in 1930. Revie was with Leeds between 1961-74. Without him they won the league in 92, finished 3rd in 2000, and were runners up in the European Cup 1975, & the EFL Cup in 96. My point being they had 40 years before Don Revie, and 50 years since, and haven't won much or played in many finals. I'm not taking away from them being a huge club though.

My mistake. 1996 League Cup final

Well if you take away Don Revie they've only won one other trophy, the 1992 title. I don't think Leeds have even played in a domestic cup final without Revie? I've heard Leeds fans argue most of Wednesday's trophies came years ago, but Revie left Leeds more than 50 years ago. They didn't win anything before the 60s, and 1 title since the 70s. They've had time to catch up

Two legged final. Rotherham won the first leg 2-0 at home. Lost 3-0 at Villa.

I know what you mean. I'd love to see Wednesday in the Premier League, and win a trophy. The honours come so few and far between. The last time we finished top of any league was the second division in 1959. 66 years ago! Before the EFL Cup in 91 it was FA Cup in 35. We just have to enjoy it as it comes and hope for the best pal. I was thinking of doing this for Lancashire, and one for the London clubs. They've both been miles ahead of Yorkshire for decades.
