More Western Terrace history:
1996: Derek Fatchett, the Labour MP for Leeds Central, was in the crowd and had no doubt that the trouble was racially motivated.
"I think there are members of the far right here who have come over from Elland Road," he said. "The only answer is the closure of the Western Terrace - it is a slum.

2012, Nasser Hussain: "I sense an atmosphere that is not very nice and I certainly wouldn’t want to sit with my family in the Western Terrace.
We get a lot of emails in the studio from people whose day at Leeds has been ruined by yobs and there really does seem to be more of an alcohol-inspired environment
at Headingley than anywhere else."
