The Championship - Leeds Utd


Over the years, Leeds have changed the on-field architecture about as often as they've changed managers.

Under Don Revie, from the 60's -

through to the early 70's, when they installed Continental D's (and from 3.00, extracted the urine) -



Revie went and Cloughie came and went - and the Continental D's went with him;


Leeds were relegated with Alan Clarke, came back with Howard Wilkinson, and won the first Division, all with Continental D's -



They continued with George Graham through the mid-90's, with only a slight alteration to the D;



Then came Dr Faustus dressed as David O'Leary, to whom the Devil offered a deal. You can live the dream -




But you'll need to install box goalnets...

Bolton Wanderers



You wouldn't go to Bolton to find innovation in on-field architecture.

As much as the clean blue and white lines at the Reebok this season look like geometrically correct prototypes for boxnets in Season 10/11 -



 So the same or similar, stanchions of yesteryear could be found at Old Trafford or Elland Road.



But NOWHERE ELSE would you see a goal like Frank Worthington's!
