Leeds United Fan Club Open Day Banner 1979

This original Leeds United Fan Club Open Day banner from 1979 is a rare and highly collectable piece of Elland Road history. Produced for a special supporters’ event hosted by the Leeds United Fan Club, the banner captures the style, colour, and energy of late‑1970s Leeds fandom.

Items from fan‑organised events of this era were typically produced in small numbers and rarely survive, making this an appealing display piece for collectors of Leeds United memorabilia or anyone with an interest in the club’s supporter culture.
Sold exactly as shown, this is a striking and unusual item that brings a genuine touch of 1970s football atmosphere.

Leeds United Fan Club Open Day Banner – 1979 Original

The late 1970s were a transitional period for Leeds United, with the club moving beyond the Don Revie era while still maintaining a passionate and loyal fan base.
Supporters’ clubs played a major role in keeping the community connected, organising events, open days, and social gatherings that strengthened the bond between fans and players.

A banner from a 1979 Fan Club Open Day is a rare survivor from this grassroots side of football culture — a reminder of how important supporter‑led events were before the modern era of commercial fan engagement.
