Legend spotlight

Billy Bremner

Midfielder · Captain

Captain of the greatest Leeds side ever assembled. A 5·7" terrier who would not be moved. Won two First Division titles, the FA Cup, the League Cup and two Fairs Cups under Don Revie. His statue stands outside Elland Road — fists clenched, looking up.
