On 26th April 2017 it will be 25 year since Sgt Wilkos troops went out at Bramall Lane to play Sheffield United in the most bizarre of games. That game ended 3-2 and (barring the little matter of Liverpool beating Man U later that afternoon – which they did) meant that Leeds United were Champions of England. The Last Champions is one tag given to that side, the following year football changed for ever and money became absolute king.
In recent years, those pretenders from over the hill have been masquerading their young players of that era as The Class of ’92. Well that class in dismissed, the real Class of ’92 is that team of players that against the odds delivered the title to Leeds
To commemorate and celebrate that fantastic achievement, MJK Sports Event will be hosting a special evening with that class.
Manager and chief architect of that team Howard “Sgt Wilko” Wilkinson will be there to relieve his memories of a fantastic season. He will be joined by midfield maestro Gary McAllister. The four man defence that frustrated so many that season will also be there, marauding right back and rocket like free kick taker Mel “Zico” Sterland, cultured left back Tony Dorigo and the centre backs, Jon Newsome and Chris Whyte. Midfield general and contributor of crucial goals, Steve Hodge joins the initial group of players announced.
The audience with.. style event will see all of the players interviewed before being joined by Sgt Wilko of an extended insight into that monumental season. An audience Q and A will follow and during the evening there will be extended videos of that season unfolding.
VIP seats, of which they are just 96 will also get the opportunity for a personal meet and greet / photo opportunity with the players and boss
The Real Class of 1992: Leeds United, Champions will be held in Keighley on 26th April 2017
