Former Leeds United captain Liam Cooper made a heartwarming visit to a popular fan pub, surprising supporters with a generous £1,000 donation.
Leeds United legend Liam Cooper surprised fans at a popular Whites pub and made a wonderful gesture. Former captain Cooper, 33, a part of the 2020 Premier League promotion side, left the club in the summer to move to CSKA Sofia in Bulgaria. On New Year’s Day, he made a return to Elland Road as guest of honour and received much adulation from fans. He also paid a visit to popular supporter pub The Old Peacock based across the road from the club’s stadium. There he put some money behind the bar.
Posting on Facebook, the team at The Old Peacock wrote: “We would like to send a massive thank you to Liam Cooper for coming into the pub today and putting £1,000 over which we handed fans a free can of ALAW Lager on his behalf.” Many Whites supporters praised the former skipper. David Daggett said: “What a top man. Great pro and loyal servant.” Neil Profeit said: “Simply sums this man up. What a gesture.” Jamie Lyon said: “Classy from Liam Cooper. A great servant to the club.” Paul Greenough added: “Cheers Coops. You're always welcome in Leeds.” You can find all the latest Leeds United news here.
