There has been some memorable matches I’ve written on for Leeds United, Man United and Featherstone Rovers in 2021, but I’m going to select one of each and give you a teaser for each:
Leeds United v Brentford- If you want goals, a Leeds United match is where you want to be as there’s always goals when Leeds play. This was an entertaining game where there were goals, but how many?
