I think the main commentary says it all really.
“What a time, what a place, to get your first senior goal!”
I don’t think you can really sum up that moment better than that. Before there was ‘Basham’s arriving’, there was another late winner at Elland Road that needs to be talked about.
I’m talking of course about David Brooks and his first ever goal for the Blades, coming in the 81st minute of our 2 – 1 victory over Leeds United back in 2017/18, the first of three that he scored for the club but none were more important than this one.
So when the clip was put out on social media for fans to react to, what was their overriding emotion? Well, it was pretty much one of sorrow, as many fans used it as an opportunity to talk about how much they missed him, which led others to talk about how the club need to bring him back some day.
I miss DB 😔

Would like to sign David back. He's wasted at Bournemouth.

What about you? What are your favourite memories of Brooks in a Blades shirt?
