Leeds' All Time Greats: No 30 Paul Madeley

Last updated : 21 March 2010 By Rick Broadbent

Paul Madeley (1962-80) 724 apps, 34 goals

For those poor, ill-fated Leeds fans who only really got into things when things had got bad, it is hard to pinpoint what Madeley did. Endless videos will instruct you in the brilliant ways of Gray and Giles and Bremner, but Mr Versatile? However, despite a lack of video evidence, Madeley was clearly the ultimate deputy. Famously, he played in every outfield position, was never knowingly miffed about his lack of a regular slot and was another to top the 700 games tally. The stand-out stand-in.
