LEEDS RUGBY LEAGUE AND FOOTBALL TEAMS

Early day motion 615, tabled 5 May 1999 by Colin Burgon (Labour). Signed by 7 members.

That this House acknowledges the success achieved by the teams representing the great city of Leeds at both rugby league and football; notes that the Leeds Rhinos' emphatic Wembley triumph was by a record winning margin and recognises that Leeds United, under their new manager David O'Leary, have secured entry into European competition by playing attractive, fluent football; and takes the view that the city can confidently look forward to experiencing even more sporting success in the years ahead.
