Leeds are a horrible club-i met some bradford fans on holiday just after the fire. Nice lot. Bloody tragic-typical Leeds though taking the piss.

There is another lesser known theory that it dates from our game against Sunderland in 1980. The second rate Gordie's brought 10000 fans to Ninian for a huge promotion game and were stunned by how much they had to pay to cross the severn bridge.
Many complained in that weird accent of their's that they had paid a 'higher tollha' and started banging their heads with their hands.
Cardiff fans thought it hillarious and the rest as they say is history
