Hot shot Lorimer. One of my heroes when I was a kid. Too many of my heroes gone in the past year, RIP Peter.
RIP Peter. Fortunate to meet him when my mate who sponsored a Leeds game invited me and a couple of mates along. Remember it was Leeds v Arsenal. The " onstage" personalities were Allan Clarke and Eddie Gray and Lorimer was at the bar with them during the interval. When Sniffer did his segment, he said there's a bloke playing for Arsenal today Thierry Henry who everybody is raving about. He then said " tell you what, he would never have got in the Leeds side managed by Don Revie." At that point Peter laughed threw his head back and hollered " you what Clarkey." Come 3 pm Henry and his mates absolutely ran amok and by half time had rattled four goals in without reply. Remember that Henry abetted by Bergkamp, Petit, Viera and Co had an absolute blinder. Leeds couldn't get near him. At half time the Leeds compère said " you were saying Sniffer".
Went in that a couple of times when I worked for Leeds Council on Sweet Street. Over 20 years ago now though...
Thats the place i think im going back about 15 years when i went in quite regular over about 2 year period when Peter Lorimer owned it and worked there.
