What Became Of The Likely Lads?
Story by Kevin Markey 5 March 2005
MICHAEL DUBERRY left Leeds earlier this week, leaving only Gary Kelly, Eirik Bakke and Lucas Radebe from David O'Leary's 'dream' team.
NIGEL MARTYN: Champions League beckons at Everton, where he is enjoying a revival after a free transfer two years ago.
DANNY MILLS: Continuing to champion the aggressive side of the game at Manchester City.
GARY KELLY: So far resisted Leeds’s attempts to remove the club’s top earner.
LUCAS RADEBE: Part of the tsunami game, but soon on his way out of Leeds.
MICHAEL DUBERRY: Departed for Stoke City amid bizarre claims that the previous board was prepared to spike his drinks with drugs.
JONATHAN WOODGATE: Enjoying a season-long siesta at Real Madrid.
RIO FERDINAND: Most expensive English defender, when he moved to Manchester United for £30 million.
DOMINIC MATTEO: Sold to Blackburn Rovers during club’s boot sale last summer.
IAN HARTE: Dubbed “The Irish Bull” by Spanish fans taken with his attacking style at Levante — let’s forget about his defending.
LEE BOWYER: Has never quite recaptured his goalscoring form. Now at Newcastle United.
EIRIK BAKKE: Who? Played one game for Leeds this season after number of injury problems.
OLIVIER DACOURT: Driven out by Terry Venables to AS Roma.
JASON WILCOX: At Leicester City.
HARRY KEWELL: The regret might lay with Liverpool, who signed the now anonymous Australian.
MICHAEL BRIDGES: At Sunderland via Bolton Wanderers.
ALAN SMITH: Reduced to tears by relegation, so jumped ship to Manchester United.
MARK VIDUKA: Escaped to Middlesbrough.
DARREN HUCKERBY: Trying to keep Norwich City in the top flight.
STEPHEN McPHAIL: At Barnsley.
DAVID O’LEARY: Three years after he soared to the Premiership summit, his Aston Villa team scrape into the top half of the table.
PETER RIDSDALE: Stepped down as Barnsley chairman in December. - www.leedsutd-mad.co.uk
Kelly has had his battle to hold his own at right back. Ever since Mills left, he had nonetheless affirmed his position in the team. I heard he even reduced his wages. Though no longer as gd as his younger days, but always a white. Amassing over 400 games, more than a decade... Simply loyal and true.
