The Trust are thrilled to be able to announce Dominic Matteo as our latest honorary member. Dominic spent 4 years at Leeds United from 2000 – 2004 making over 140 appearances for the Whites. He was an integral part of the O’Leary side that finished 3rd in the Premier League and went on to reach the semi-finals of the Champions league. He remains an incredibly popular figure among Leeds fans as the no-nonsense heart of the defence, forming formidable partnerships with the likes of Lucas Radebe and Rio Ferdinand and of course, for that goal in the San Siro.

More recently Leeds fans joined football fans across the country in wishing Dom well as he overcame treatment for a brain tumour. Everyone within the football family was delighted with the news that he’s now been given the all clear.

We caught up with Dom (digitally, from at least 2 meters away) to present him with his Honorary award and to hear his take on days that seem like yesterday.
