Yes, I remember that game well. Their games immediately before and after that one were won 3-0 and 5-1 if I remember correctly. The 5-1 game may have been against ManU.That passing sequence you mention was upwards of 30 passes (I defo remember the fans counting up to 27 ole's) with Bremner and Giles pinging the ball from one side of the pitch to the other time after time. They were truly sublime for a few weeks that season.A mention above for the " mighty" Leeds when they actually were mighty.
Does any of our older members remember the Leeds vs Southampton game where Leeds won 7-0 and was one of the most perfect game ever played by a football team and a total demolition of what was a pretty decent team at the time.
There is a section of the game, I think it is on YouTube, where Giles, bremner, lori met etc al absolutely took the piss out of saints and were sublimely flicking the ball to eachother and the Southampton players couldn't get anywhere near the ball.
Probably the best 90 minutes of football I ever have ever attended ( my dad took me )
