Few clubs have gone through as much as Leeds United have in the past 30 years. From the extreme highs of winning the title and becoming a European force to the devastating lows of financial ruin and multiple relegations; it's been quite the ride for their supporters, one of whom is award-winning audio producer Ed Morrish.

Ed speaks with great wit and warmth about what it's been like to follow Leeds since the early 90s, making clear his admiration for the team of champions Howard Wilkinson built as well as making no bones about how sad it was to see that same team reach the end of the road in the 1996 League Cup final.

There's also focus on a few individuals from that era - among them an enigmatic Frenchman and a thrilling Ghanaian - before the conversation moves onto the brilliant side David O'Leary guided to the brink of Champions League glory at the turn of the millennium. Just how good were they? And why did it eventually go wrong? Not surprisingly, Peter Ridsdale crops up and Ed is unsparing in his criticism of the man who 'lived the dream'.

He's far more effusive, however, about the man who led Leeds back to the Premier League - Marcelo Bielsa, explaining just what makes the Argentinian a much-loved and revered figure among the fans.

Finally, Ed talks through his all-time Leeds XI before going back in time and changing a couple of moments from his Leeds-supporting past.

So download, listen and love. And after you have, please Rate and Review. It would mean a lot.

Cheers!
