One could easily argue that he probably belongs in the "fallen" pile rather than the "cult", given his career choices post-Leeds, but nevertheless Harry Kewell has to be considered as a cult hero for what he brought to the pitch during his time at the club. Nothing feels better as a fan than watching a homegrown star light the place up, and while Harry obviously wasn't from Leeds per se - the fact that he graduated with honours from the Leeds FA Youth cup winning team meant it didn't really matter. He joined the club as a youngster and quickly became a firm favourite due to his sheer pace, dynamism and penchant for spectacular goals. His enormous talent was recognised by his fellow professionals when he was voted young player of the year and third overall in 1999-2000, when his worth was rated at £20m (or nearer £50m in today's money). He was also the darling of the newly formed Premier league and one of the most feared attacking players in the English game. Unfortunately his Leeds career petered out around the same time that the club's fortunes dipped so he can perhaps be forgiven for his switch to Merseyside; with the only potential positive that can be taken (albeit cynically) is that he never recaptured the form and fame that he enjoyed at Elland Road. His later switch to the controversial Turkish club Galatasaray, sworn enemies of Leeds United, was too much for the vast majority of Leeds fans and the player was outcast forever, however, in purely nostalgic terms he has earned his place as a modern day cult hero.
