Brett: Our family originated in Leeds and has been in Australia for 140 years. We were a successful football-playing family with four members playing for Australia, but Leeds winning the 1972 FA Cup on our black-and-white TV was my biggest early memory.

The goalscorer in 1972, Allan Clarke, made a guest appearance at Townsville in 1981 giving the 18 year old winger I was back then some great confidence-building advice.

We've been to Elland Road four times and watched Leeds play in Sydney on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. Through the ups and downs we go and continue Marching on Together.

Sarah: I was at primary school with Billy Bremner's daughter in Crossgates. Billy used to take us horse riding on a Sunday morning and I often went to his house after. Always remember him as a lovely man and a lovely family. Loved Leeds United ever since , even though I find supporting them quite stressful!
