As Wilf has already alluded to, Lee Crooks had to be forcibly removed from The Boulevard, kicking and screaming but don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story.
Oh and by the way, it was Lee who got hold of Casey when he had Pearce up against the changing room walls at half time, and probably led to Lee’s demise!!!!
I remember Crooksy was very upset to leave Hull, he literally lived for the club and never settled or produced his best at Leeds.
I'd heard similar about him and Casey but as always, it was never officially announced that it had happened and I thought it was probably just a story that had been added to over time, although I hated Casey as coach, despite him being a previous player for us, my memories of him were as a Rovers hardman, who was in reality, a cheap shot merchant and never squared up to the real hardmen of the game at that time, Fred Ah Kuoi actually gave him a good one when Casey was sent off and pushed the touch judge, ruining his chance of captaining GB down under if memory serves me well.
