All things Leeds.
Football, history, general twaddle.

We’re living the dream. 60+ of us here to roar home our superstar in a Group 1 Classic here at Chantilly whether she’s first or last were having the day of our lives.

Come back safe and sound girl. Priceless ❤️

Any jockey exceeding 9 strikes would receive instant disqualification.

Zarigana was struck 2 times with the whip and 12 times by hand…. 14 strikes 🤷🏼‍♂️

@BasherWatts @Paul49576972154 @Coral Nobody on ante bets @SkyBet even tweeted paying as winners. I get Ts and Cs say no to Ante, but don’t tweet as if you’re a hero then bottle it

Had the weirdest dream last night that we won the French 1000 Guineas in a photo and then lost it in the stewards..

[Basher Watts @BasherWatts]

Just a King Shoey appreciation post. The days and places him, Charlie and Sue have taken us are just incredible.

Couldn’t have handled himself any more professionally during a tough week. He’ll always have our support

Long live the King 👑 👟

[Basher Watts @BasherWatts]

This is so bittersweet to watch. They can’t take away that feeling we all experienced. The best feeling in the world. I could not be prouder of our horse, the people I have brought together and the journey we are all on together.

She’s our guineas winner, we couldn’t love her anymore

@SkyBet You haven’t on ante bets and your chat online staff are unaware of this tweet

Today marks 100 years since the passing of 'The Queen of the Music Hall' Marie Lloyd.

A star around the world, Lloyd was known for her innuendo-filled songs like 'Don't Dilly Dally on the Way' and 'A Little Of What You Fancy Does You Good' 🎶

[City Varieties Music Hall @CityVarieties]

Marie Lloyd visited Leeds a number of times over her career, with performances at The Varieties, @GrandTheatreLS1, The Empire, Tivoli and more. Delving into our archive, we discovered a playbill from 1898 at The Grand - Marie's first appearance in Leeds. (2/3) #MarieLloyd100
