http://www.leedsunited.com/news/20130716/sullivan-returns-to-elland-road_2247585_3239352

Neil Sullivan has returned to Leeds United in a coaching capacity.
The club's former goalkeeper - Neil made 95 appearances between 2004 and 2007 - has been appointed he club's new Academy Goalkeeping Coach.
Neil will oversee the Academy goalkeeping programme, and the goalkeeping coaches for the specific age groups.
The former Wimbledon and Tottenham keeper will also work predominantly with the 16-21 year old goalkeepers at club and oversee their development.
Neil said: "I'm delighted to be back here and I'm looking forward to the opportunity of working with the Academy goalkeepers, and hopefully playing a part in their development."
A former Scotland international, Neil started his career with Wimbledon and had spells with Tottenham and Chelsea before joining United in the summer of 2004.
Neil was a member of the side which reached the Play-Off final in 2006, but moved on to Doncaster on a permanent basis the following summer, where he spent the past six years.
He is a veteran of over 550 career appearances.

Proved Leeds wrong for getting rid, by playing out of his skin in THAT playoff final.
-15 season would have been perfect ending with a lesser keeper playing for Donny

Good appointment 👍

Agreed Casper was superb that day

Yeah that was by far the bestgame he had for Leeds!

I went expecting Leeds to get beat by a better Donny side and because of Angerken we managed to keep it close.

I think Donny were the best team in the league that season and knew as soon as they missed out on auto they would be really hard to beat in the play-offs

We'd have been four down at H/T had it not been for Ankergren.
Should have kept Sullivan in all fairness.
Old Wobbly eyes thought he was overweight & wanted rid of him, he also was responsible for bringing in Graham Stack on loan to help support Warner.

Deary me!

Glad Sullivan is back with us.

What a horrible day that was. Wrecked from the night before, horrible train journey, then one down after seven minutes!
