 Hot Shot Tie |
|
Description:
Peter Lorimer the Leeds United legend here straightens his tie before heading over to Brunton Park to see his former club in action against Carlisle United. Lorimer would be joining thousands of other United fans who sold out their allocation for this match. 16,668 fans watched the game, Brunton Park's biggest attendance since 1976.
Don Revie signed Peter Lorimer in May 1962 for a fee of 25,000 pounds. Lorimer aged just 15 came from the schoolboy side Stobswell and made his debut for United when he was just 15 years old. Lorimer had two spells with United the first under manager Don Revie. Under Revie Lorimer made 616 appearances for the Whites in all competitions between 1963 to 1979 and scored 219 goals. In his second spell manager Eddie Gray brought him from UCD (University College Dublin AFC), he made another 76 appearances in all competitions for United between 1984 to 1985 and scored 19 goals. Peter 'Hot Shot' Lorimer is Leeds United's all time goal scoring record holder with 238 goals. Thanks to Colin Callow for this great pic.
