Start crying, Frank Lampard?
Believe it or not, Tuesday night will be Frank Lampard’s first visit to Elland Road since he was on the pitch and mimicking binoculars on the night Derby County ended Leeds United’s promotion dream in 2019. That was the night, full of narrative and drama after Spygate and the like, the former England midfielder really confirmed his lot among the United fanbase.
There are all kinds of stories and rumours about what went on in the Derby dressing room that night, but it’s universally agreed the Rams filled their boots when it came to rubbing in United’s demise. This is the first opportunity the Whites faithful will have to welcome Lampard back to Elland Road in their own inimitable way.
