	Don Revie
		Don Revie benefited as a player from studying role models and learned at the feet of willing mentors after developing skills and techniques in the back streets of his native North East with a ball made from rags, as the romantics would have you believe.
		Revie lost his way as a footballer after that triumph, winning his sixth and final England cap in October 1956 and shuffling sideways offstage with Sunderland and then humble Leeds United before finally retiring from playing in 1963.
		Opinion is divided about Don Revie the player, with many commenting on a surprising inflexibility, and a need for the rest of the team to play his way.

	Don Revie
		Don Revie introduced a ruthless streak into his Leeds side and they came in for some hefty criticism from areas of the media, especially those outside the fair county of Yorkshire.
		But Revie was adamant that he was building a side to be feared and the first sign of this came with Second Division Championship in 1963-64 and a cup final appearance and defeat against the mighty Liverpool in May 1965.
		In 1986, Don Revie fell victim to the crippling motor-neurone disease.

	leedsfans.org.uk: Leeds United Manager Profile: Don Revie
		Don Revie remains the yardstick against which other Leeds managers find themselves measured.
		Revie tried to recreate the "family" atmosphere that had been so successful for the club at national level, but it never really worked out.
		When the old Kop was demolished at Elland Road, it was natural that the replacement stand should be named "The Revie Stand" in honour of the man who achieved miracles at a club that would probably be languishing in Division 1 or 2 today but for his supreme contribution.

		However the FA were shocked when they later learned that Revie had in fact secretly found himself another job as manager of the United Arab Emirates and had negotiated a £340,000 tax free four year contract with them whilst he was still manager of England.
		Revie refused to attend the subsequent FA hearing and was promptly suspended from any involvement with football under the FA's jurisdiction.
		Revie was then given a ten year ban for bringing the game into disrepute, but in 1979 he had the decision to ban him successfully overturned in the High Court.

		Team manager Don Revie had introduced several teenage players into the side and this injection of youth had triggered off a great improvement, which saw them finish in fifth place in Division Two, as well as lay the 10 year bogey of never winning an F.A. Cup-tie before going out in round five.
		Don Weston, Ian Lawson and Jim Storrie were fairly experienced forwards who had been signed for moderate fees, during the preceding couple of years, while young, coloured, left-winger Albert Johanneson was gaining in reputation as a speedy, skilful goalscorer.
		Don Revie had gone to Old Trafford to pay £35,000 for a young Irishman named Johnny Giles, who was in some dispute with Manchester United after being left out of their team following a heavy defeat.

		Revie’s stewardship started in some difficulty; the club was in some financial difficulty and in the 1961-1962 season only a win in the final game of the season saved the club from relegation to Division 3.
		However, under Revie Leeds won promotion to Division 1 in the 1963-64 season; two league championships: 1968-69, 1973-1974, League Cup in 1968, Fairs Cup 1968 and 1971, FA Cup in 1972 and FA Charity Shield in 1972.
		Don Revie had recommended Johnny Giles as his replacement, and the thoughtful Giles went on to become a successful manager elsewhere.

	ESPN.com Soccernet Column by Bob Driscoll: Kev must be fearing the backlash
		Revie, the man who really established Keegan's international playing career, was, of course, the last manager to desert England at a time of need back in 1977 when he dashed secretly to sign a contract with the United Arab Emirates.
		Revie was the England manager in the mid-Seventies when Keegan stormed out of the squad and made for home when told he may not be in the starting line-up.
		In 1977, when Revie was to demonstrate that he, too, was afflicted by a brittle temperament by bolting from the consequences of England's fading World Cup prospects, his excuse for leaving the squad's tour of South America was to spy on their next qualifying opponents - Finland.

	The Definitive History of Leeds United - Don Revie - Player (1958-62) - Manager (1961-74)
		Don Revie excited passionate emotions in football people, and in many corners of the country his name is reviled.
		Revie himself was one of the most pragmatic of the new breed of manager, but he still chose to build his later Leeds sides around the genius of diminutive playmakers Billy Bremner and Johnny Giles after losing the aggressive bite of Bobby Collins.
		Don always said that he was going to retire in his early fifties and enjoy life, and this of course required the amassing of money.

		Revie had thought it was merely a bad sprain, but started to fear the worst when no-one would tell him the exact nature of the injury.
		Revie, in contrast, was even more impressed by playing alongside Carter than he had been watching him from a distance, saying "There was the occasion when we were playing at Doncaster, and for a moment I was wondering what to do with the ball because there was no apparent opening.

	The Definitive History of Leeds United - Don Revie - Player (1958-62) - Manager (1961-74)
		Don Revie enjoyed a long and colourful career as manager of Leeds United Football Club, reigning supreme at Elland Road from March 1961 until the summer of 1974.
		Revie, though, time and time again exercised his option to remain as the Godfather of the Leeds United Family, using the rewards on offer from others to help wring improved terms from the tight-fisted directors who ran the club.
		The result masked the plain reality that Revie's team had been every bit as lacklustre and short on invention as Ramsey's men, and a drab goalless draw at home to Portugal three weeks later confirmed the suspicions of the cynics that this would not be the cakewalk which the new manager had hoped for.

		In the 1960s, Don Revie was the epitome of Leeds United.
		Leeds were striving to retain their status in Division Two when Revie took charge, but an improvement in performance in 1962-63, saw Revie guiding the unfashionable Yorkshire side to the Second Division Championship the following season, which earned them promotion back to the First Division.
		However, these achievements have been acknowledged and the Don Revie Stand was named in his honour as a tribute to his phenomenal leadership.

		Superstitious Revie was convinced that the bad luck his team seemed to suffer stemmed from a curse laid on the ground long before football had been played there, so in 1971 he called in a gypsy to lift that curse.
		This was officially opened in October by the President of the club, Lord Harewood and Mrs E Revie the late Don Revie's widow.
