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.
Just wanted to pass on to Stix my enormous thanks for taking my son (and myself) on a guided tour of the Thorpe Arch training facility some years back.
My son had been in St James Hospital recovering from a kidney transplant. I had written to the club, hoping for a signed greetings card, but they weren”t yet updated or ready for print. Stix took it upon himself to organise a full day at Thorpe Park, tour of facilities, watching training, meet & greet with all the players, and lunch. My sons highlight was sitting at a table with his hero Gary Kelly.
Stix was an utmost gentleman and no doubt helped my sons recovery. Big respect to him from me.

I had a spanish exchange who was also a massive football fan, I wanted to do something special and show her the club that means everything to me i emailed leeds and he got in contact with me. I spoke to him on the phone and he organised for me my exchange and my dad to come to the game early and we had to opportunity to go pitch side met Jansson as he came out to the pitch and as we went to leave he went and got Pablo. These are memories i still treasure to this day and speak about it. Thankyou Stix
What a guy. This man sorted out a day to remember for 2 kids that had recently lost their dad to suicide. The game was a day after the funeral and we won which helped. We got to do a lot of things you can”t on the tour and even though the day was for them, I was the biggest kid going. Thank you so much and I will be making a donation to 1 of your chosen charities.

On our long awaited promotion back to the promised land we put up a banner which thanked Marcelo Bielsa, a Leeds fan tweeted that only in Leeds would someone thank Bielsa above the NHS in a pandemic. This went viral and Stix brought this to Marcelo”s attention to which we then received a personal thanks by voice note from Marcelo himself. This was all thanks to Stix.
True supporters of which our family are and others will be like Stix, until the world stops going round. 🤍💛💙 Your friends at Around The Clock.
The players, managers and owners come and go, but the supporters are constant and the glue that hold it all forever together, probably another reason he is known as Stix. ALAW your friends Michael and Hannah Barry 💙🤍💛
I had the pleasure of meeting Stix when i visited Elland Road and the TG to discuss terms to work for the club. Stix looked after me and we shared reminiscences of the Revie era when we were young lads. His warmth and kindness that day as things did not work out for me was the abiding memory. It says much about the man that to this day we keep in touch.
