The local Europe MP for Yorkshire is putting together a online petition to present to the European Football Association in an attempt to overturn the result of the 1973 European Cup Winners Cup Final.
This was the match where my team Leeds United lost 1-0 to AC Milan in Salonika Greece but left a sour taste in the mouth due to some very dodgy referee decisions. Afterwards the Greek fans applauded Leeds lap of honour but stopped the winning Italians from doing one.
Later it was found the Ref had been bribed by the Italians and he was banned from the sport, however the result was never overturned.
Even if you are not a Leeds fan or Footie Fan but believe in fair play in sport please sign the petition, you can find more information here & a link to the petition.
