Description:
The season of 1977-78 saw Leeds Utd better their previous season in the league by one place finishing in 9th position. Armfield again dipped into the transfer market that season bringing in Arthur Graham, Brian Flynn and Paul Hart. In the FA Cup and Leeds went out at the first stage to Manchester City but in the Football League Cup United went all the way to the Semi Final only to be beaten in a two legged affair by eventual League Champions Nottingham Forest. It seemed with the success of the Revie side still entrenched in the board at Elland Road and the minds of the United public that it would seem nothing short of a miracle for Armfield to impress. Jimmy Armfield did steady the ship at Elland Road and produce a little success but with expectations still high, the board decided to end his time at Elland Road.
