Quote ="Puig-Aubert"Bearing in mind I know very little of the players from more than 40 years ago, a Leeds born 13 could look like:
1. Mick Shoebottom
2. Alan Smith
3. Syd Hynes
4. Garry Schofield
5. John Atkinson
6. John Holmes
7. Jeff Stevenson
8. Jamie Peacock
9. David Ward
10. Steve Pitchford
11. Bill Ramsey
12. Paul Medley
13. Ellery Hanley
Replacements from: Jason Robinson, James Lowes, Gareth Carvell, Kevin Dick, Danny McGuire, JJB, Ryan Bailey, Barry Seabourne, Chev walker, Dave Creasser, Dave Heron, Neil Hague, Roy Dickinson, Graham Eccles.
Whats maybe interesting is that players from the 60s and 70s are seen as legends by Leeds fans and those of other clubs but current players (who might already have achieved more domestically and won more international caps) aren't seen as worthy enough yet. Maybe that's because there's many more years to come from them or maybe its that opposition fans find it easier to give credit to players from another era than the current crop.'"
you are very knowlegable,but i'm certain alan smith was born in the wakefield area
