Frank Worthington features at number 99 in our 100 Greatest Leeds players ever.
Born Halifax 1948, Frank was an extremely colourful character and LUFC were just one of 11 clubs he played for. Bought from Birmingham City in exchange for Byron Stevenson to provide goals , he was not able to help stave off relegation even though he managed 15 in his 35 appearances. Won 8 England caps while with Leicester and another 2 at Bolton. Scorer of over 200 league goals, he is now a very entertaining after dinner speaker.
