* The Leeds United v Ferencvaros 1967/68 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup final was played at the start of the 1968/69 season - 1967/68 results


** On August 24th 1968 Leeds United's First Division match at Nottingham Forest was halted when a fire broke out in the Main Stand at the City Ground. Although the wooden stand was destroyed in similar circumstances to the Valley Parade tragedy of 1985 thankfully none of the 31,126 fans present at the ground that day suffered injury. The match was abandoned shortly before half time with the score at 1-1 - match void.



*** In their Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Second Round tie Leeds defeated Napoli on the toss of a disc (red one side, white the other) after the sides had finished 2-2 on aggregate.
