Stix has assisted an immeasurable number of Leeds United fans over the years, and in various situations – from Match Days and ‘Leeds on the Road’ events, to celebrations, bereavements and ill health; assisting fans at the best and sometimes most-difficult times of their lives.
“The fans are the heartbeat of Our Club” he says, and Marcelo Bielsa himself called him ‘The Bridge’ between the Club and the supporters.

I first had the pleasure of meeting Stix for the first time almost 20 years ago now. He’s the father of one of my oldest and closest friends. I’ve always had the upmost respect for his love and commitment given to both his career and his family. As a military wife and daughter, its always a great feeling to see gratitude shown to our serving men and women, Stix has shown his in abundance over the years. I’m proud to know him and hope he is proud of his achievements. He’s made a lot of people very happy.

Firstly, what this man has done for our club for so many years is unbelievable and genuinely done with love and care for Leeds United and everyone involved in the club from staff players fans etc. I first got to know Stix through his daughter Shauna that came across me on Facebook when I was live streaming singing raising money for the NHS through lockdown which the final total was £16,245 in the end an amazing achievement by me and everyone involved and we became friends and her daughter Quinn became my biggest fan (I love her) so we got chatting and she knew how big of a fan of Leeds United I am and told me her dad was the LEGEND STIX I was blown away not only by her having a legend of our club as her father but for his kind words passed on through her for what I was doing for NHS through what was a really difficult time for everyone and also his contribution into getting signed merchandise for people.
I was doing tributes for example young lad called Kaden who was going through leukemia at the time, now all clear thank god, Stix made that lad very happy and that’s what Stix is all about always doing great things for people without hesitation.
I was so excited to be told from Shauna he wanted to come on my live one night and have a chat about Leeds United and about what he does for the club on a day-to-day basis, and it was a great interview/ chat that I will never forget and is still on my YouTube channel if anyone wants to have a watch RJCMUSIC.
He even came to support me, at my 100 years celebration of Leeds United at The Irish Centre in Leeds and I gave a little speech in recognition of him, on stage which I felt he deserved.
I remember one day at ER Leeds vs Leicester NOV 7th 2021 was our turn to do our bit in remembrance for the fallen soldiers and Stix was at the front of me dressed smart as always doing what he truly loves next to a soldier getting ready for the minute silence before that started I wanted to say hello so walked down stairs and tapped him on shoulder and he turned round massive smile and massive hug and even though he was there to do his job still had time to say hi when I turned round and walked back upstairs I saw everyone looking at me and one man asked me do you know Stix I said yes “he’s a legend isn’t he” and he said “certainly is he’s a great bloke massive heart” and that just sums Stix up for me
all the best for the future Stix
Leeds United are missing a legend and a true gent I want to say on behalf of every Leeds fan thank you for everything you’ve done for our club
Keep smiling
and thanks for everything you’ve done for me
YOUR FRIEND

I came over to Leeds from Australia in April 2016 to watch a live Leeds United match. Originally, I wrote to Peter Lorimer regarding attending a game with a friend, next thing I know Stix Lockwood has e-mailed me asking if I need tickets and advising of car parking arrangements.
Then he said meet me at the entrance and I’ll take you through the players area etc and get photos with any of the players if you like before the game.
His motto was fans come 1st, 2nd, 3rd.
We had the best time, front row seats, and Leeds beat Reading 2-1.
I can’t wait to come back and see a Premier League match.
Every successful club needs a Stix Lockwood, the heart and soul of the club, there through thick and thin.
Thanks Stix.

I want to add my few words having read the wonderful testimonies about Stix. We met a few years ago on a stadium tour – since then Peter has been a contact for me and has made my little special grandson the happiest boy around. He has had signed birthday cards -certificates – personal photographs of his favourite players and much much more. 
Peter has been our contact as I stated -never was anything too much trouble for him and I even sent hm a video of my grandson opening one of the cards as the photo shows…  
He has been such an asset to Leeds all these years – the players and the fans – in fact he is called “Mr Leeds” by a lot of people.  
I saw the  video when he won the Bobby Collins award around 4 year ago The players all spoke so highly of him – it was great to see him get the appreciation then  after all the years at Leeds. 
 
When someone like Peter takes  a personal interest in helping the fans -who are in my mind what makes Leeds United a great team – in the charity work- signing shirts for great causes etc –  and who is a bridge  between the players the club and the fans – it means so much.
Can’t thank him enough.
A true gentleman and friend.

Stix arranged a signed Bielsa certificate for Lew’s 21st last year and today we had the great pleasure of meeting Stix.
Thank you so much for taking time out to come and meet Lew at home…..it made his day!!
It is heart warming to meet somebody so committted to bringing pleasure to others through a mutual love of LUFC. There are too few people left that want to bring smiles and expect nothing in return, thank you Stix

Well, what can I say about Stix or where do I even start. What this bloke did for me when I lost my best mate to cancer was amazing and he did loads more for my charity football team called The Kews Burrow Charity FC from Wakefield. Whenever I needed anything from the club, Stix was there to get it for us no matter what !!!
He’s a legend and a massive part of my heart and a big icon at Elland Road, he always will be.
He will do anything at the drop of a hat.
If anyone ever asked me who was the man to contact at Elland Road, it was Stix straight away.
Us fans and players love the lad and from the bottom of my heart Stix, I can’t thank you enough for what you have done for Leeds United and me and the rest of the fans, you’re a true legend.
Take a bow fella.

The main memories I want to share about Stix’s work with the supporters is that he always had time to speak to people like myself and didn’t look down at us. It always fascinated me and made it a good shift when he spoke to me about the Leeds lads so casually on first name basis.
I can’t forget the fact that he also got me and my friends a signed letter from Bielsa himself just for being ‘good supporters’.
I know there’ll be lots more kind words from a lot of people to go on the website – he deserves it.
 All the best,

Where do I start, Stix literally made my dreams come true.  On December 15th 2009, we were staying at Martin House for some respite with my poorly son Ben. It had always been my dream to take my son to a game at Elland Road but from 10 months old, Ben was diagnosed with a brain tumour, so he was never well enough to go and sit in the stands. On this particular evening, I was just starting to get ready to set off and my wife said I needed to get Ben ready.  At first, I thought she meant for bed but then I was told that Martin House had organised our own box for the game with Stix.
The evening was fantastic. Stix couldn’t have done any more for us. We went pitch side pre-match and in the box for the match. It was a cold night v Accrington Stanley but towards the end of the match I even managed to get Ben in the seats so he could sample ‘Marching on Together’ sung from The Kop.
This meant so much to me and I could not thank him enough.
Thank you, Stix.
