Younger of the two Greenhoff brothers, Brian followed the
opposite path to Jimmy, playing for both Leeds and Manchester
United, but starting out on the "wrong" side of the Pennines and
winning an FA Cup Winners medal in 1977. He could play at full back
or in midfield, and he had become a regular with England before his
move to Leeds. Injuries disrupted his time at Elland Road, and he
was to gain just one more cap after his move, and he managed just
78 games and 1 goal in the 4 years he was at Leeds. Subsequently
played for brother Jimmy at Rochdale before retiring in 1984.
Simon Wood says: Acquired by Jimmy Adamson- scored a beauty
against Notts Forest (and Peter Shilton)- played in defence and
midfield
