It was super to meet and chat with such a loyal legend as Stix #MOT Also a great boost for my wife after what she is going through x. Pity about the result but maybe a blessing in disguise 😉 8/2/25

It’s impossible to put into words the impact Stix has made and to how many people. I first met him a few years ago, and his deep passion for Leeds United Football Club, the players, the fans, and the countless individuals touched by his kindness and generosity, was immediately apparent. That same generosity has now extended to the March for Nations team and to one of our supported charities, Combat Stress. Combat Stress provides critical services to veterans facing mental health challenges, an issue that affects more veterans each year.

As a Captain in the Royal Marines, I want to express my deepest thanks to Stix for arranging a shirt for us to auction at our charity fundraising event at the Royal Armouries Leeds on March 6, 2025. It’s the perfect item to bring to the Armouries, and I’m hopeful it will help us raise enough to make a real difference for veterans struggling with mental health issues.

Thank you, Stix. They say you are what you eat, and I’d say you must have eaten a legend.

United We Conquer.

Stix has been a friend of mine for years and I’m extremely proud to say that.
I first spoke to him on a late night phone call inviting me to bring my daughters to meet their heroes. I sent a random letter to LUFC asking if my daughters, Alanya and Sienna, could meet Adam Clayton and Luciano Becchio, their favourite players at the time, and I got a phone call late one night from Stix. “Hi Sam, it’s Stix from Leeds United, are you free to bring your daughters to the game on Saturday?” .
We met Stix, waited in the tunnel and my daughters met heroes, ALL OF THEM, the whole squad! A day they, and me, will remember that day forever.
Years later, after we beat Derby in the playoffs away, Myself and Sienna waited to hopefully get a picture with her then “love of her life” Kalvin Phillips. Whilst waiting at the railings I saw Stix and we got chatting and he remembered me and Sienna!!! Sienna told him about her love for Kalvin Phillips and we chatted about our love of the Island of Malta where his brilliant daughter Shauna got married.
Since that day we have kept in touch and every game I go to I meet up with this legend to ensure that Sienna and now my youngest daughter Mellieha’s “Grandad Leeds” is ok.

He is, he is Leeds, he is an integral part of OUR football club.

No matter what!

MOT Stix! We are Leeds x

Wanted to thank you Stix. Last night you took time out to talk to me about all things Leeds United while I was back home in the UK from Tampa Bay Florida. Great to see you back at the club, you’re a great asset to them, which hopefully they realize. Here’s hoping the team come over to the US and they bring you and other likeminded people with them as what you do will go down well with the American supporters. All the best John #MOT

Have met Stix many years ago via his amazing charity work

Today, had the absolute pleasure of bumping into Stix and his lovely wife in a Leeds supermarket

If there were more Stix around, the World would be a better place !

I first met Stix (the man) in early 2019 on a Leeds United Stadium Tour. From the word go (and there were 50+) of us on the tour, he was fantastic. He had time for everyone individually, as if you were on the tour on your own. No rush, plenty of time for pictures (which he offered to take for anyone who asked) he could not have been more accommodating. His love for the club and us, the supporters, genuinely shone through. His knowledge about everything, his humour and his stories going back years had us all, (including the kiddies) entranced. What a great servant of OUR CLUB. Nothing was too much trouble.
For the money, 2hrs of bliss and topped off with a 2-0 home win.
Good luck and good health in everything you do, Sir.
MOT and ALAW, Jack

Stix. I’m not sure where to start with what you did for my family but in particularly me. I was in a bad place when unbeknown to me, my wife first made contact with you. You subsequently invited us, but more importantly my children, who I had been unintentionally ignoring recently, to a Leeds home game. The day started with your friendly greeting and fantastic stadium tour full of stories from the past and present. Two hours of humour and history. Although it was a very large group of people, you didn’t rush us round at all and there was plenty of time for pictures, etc (memories). I’d been sailing along dark waters recently but as we walked out of the tunnel and into the bright sun light, I looked down at my children and wife’s, smiling faces, and things started to change in my life. The day was topped off with a great 2-0 win.
I, we as a family cannot thank you enough for bringing us all back together again.
You sir, and I mean sir, are so special.
Not only to our great football club but to the Leeds Community in general.
You must have assisted 1000s and 1000s over the years without looking for any praises or rewards.
So, I am going to call you Sir Stix because that is exactly what you deserve.
Merry Christmas
Ray and Family

I contacted him directly about the relatively recent debacle about the club badge being redesigned, a very quick positive reply from Stix.
I can also see how supportive his daughter and family are to him, which no doubt helps him to carry on the work he does.
Wishing the whole Lockwood family a very happy Christmas and my thanks for their support of my club for many years.

One of the nicest and selfless human beings I”ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. In 2013 my Dad was in hospital with what turned out to be terminal leukaemia. He was due to attend a game with me but couldn’t due to being in hospital. I contacted the club and asked if it would be possible to have something signed for him in lieu of being at the game. Having been told nothing could be done I was put in contact with Stix. He told my brother and I to meet him before the game. We handed him a shirt and within ten minutes he returned with a fully signed shirt by the entire side. We all had tears in our eyes on presenting it to Dad. I contacted Stix later in the year when Dad had unfortunately passed to thank him and let him know how much it meant to us as a family and that my Dad has passed away. On the same day I got a completely unexpected reply from Stix passing on his condolences. Such a small gesture and part of his day but something that meant so much and has always stayed with me and I think has made be a better man that Stix took time from his day to message a stranger and offer a few words of comfort. Thank you Stix
