The last 15 seasons of Leeds United's 100-year history have been spent outside the Premier League.
A Mark Viduka red card and a 4-1 defeat away to Bolton effectively relegated Leeds back in 2004, but their fate wasn't officially confirmed until they played out a 3-3 draw with Charlton the following week.
It remains the last Premier League game played at Elland Road. Goals from Matt Kilgallon, Jermaine Pennant and Alan Smith gave Leeds a 3-1 lead on the day, before succumbing to a second-half comeback from Alan Curbishley's Addicks. A dead rubber defeat at Chelsea followed on the final weekend of that season.
Here's what the squad that featured that day are doing now, with just three still playing professionally.
Paul Robinson
The goalkeeper departed Leeds for Tottenham that summer, and would go on to make more than 250 more Premier League appearances for Spurs and Blackburn Rovers, earning 41 international caps as England’s number one between 2003 and 2007.
He suffered a second relegation with Blackburn in 2013, before eventually retiring from football in 2017. He’s recently dipped his toes into punditry and can be seen on Sky Sports.
Frazer Richardson
The defender spent five more years with Leeds, playing in the Championship and League One, before making the switch to Charlton in 2009. After subsequent stints with Southampton, Middlesbrough and Rotherham, he retired in 2016 at League Two Doncaster Rovers.
Michael Duberry
One of the main culprits for United’s defensive horrorshow that day, he was sent out on loan to Championship rivals Stoke City the following season before joining them permanently a year later.
He returned to the Premier League when he signed for Reading in 2007, before eventually winding down his career at Oxford United. He’s since done motivational speaking work.
Matthew Kilgallon
Kilgallon left Elland Road in 2007, going on to make over 100 appearances for Sheffield United and becoming something of a Football League journeyman with stints at Middlesbrough, Doncaster, Blackburn and Bradford.
Still going at the age of 35, he signed a deal with Indian Super League side Hyderabad FC last year.
Ian Harte
The former left-back had an eclectic playing career after leaving Leeds for La Liga side Levante in 2004.
He spent three years there before returning to England, turning out for Sunderland, Blackpool and Carlisle before enjoying an Indian summer at Reading, helping them get promoted, playing Premier League football at the age of 35.
Retiring at Bournemouth in 2015, he’s since become an agent, notably representing Leeds academy graduate Jack Clarke.
Gary Kelly
Kelly finished his career as a one-club man, drawing time on his playing career after 15 years with Leeds in 2007. A recurring shin splints problem hampered the latter years of his career.
Regularly back in Leeds, the club stalwart was back once again for the club’s centenary celebrations last year.
Stephen McPhail
Part of the Home Farm contingent that came through in the 90s, a little later than Kelly and Harte, former Republic Of Ireland international Stephen McPhail was part of the exodus that summer, going to Barnsley.
He retired from playing football in 2016 at Shamrock Rovers and was subsequently appointed their sporting director - a role he continues to fulfil today.
Dominic Matteo
The Liverpudlian, who became a Leeds cult hero for his unforgettable goal at the San Siro, left the club that summer and retired five years later.
He’s now a regular media presence, reporting on games for Soccer Saturday on Sky Sports among others. The Scotland international fell ill last year and underwent surgery on a brain tumour, but recently shared the welcome news that his latest scan was all-clear.
Jermaine Pennant
A colourful character, Pennant returned to his parent club Arsenal that summer before joining Liverpool a couple of years later. He started in the Champions League final against Milan in 2007, but his career tailed off from there.
More associated with his presence in the tabloids and Celebrity Big Brother, the former winger spent the final years of his career turning out for Indian side Pune City and Singaporean side Tampines Rovers before featuring alongside Jamie O’Hara and Paul Konchesky at Billericay Town.
Most recently seen turning out for Liverpool’s legends - stretching the definition a bit there, surely? - in a charity friendly against Rangers.
James Milner
United fans still dream of Horsforth-born Milner returning to the club. At the age of 33, he’s won it all, lifting two Premier League titles with Manchester City before adding the Champions League with Liverpool last season.
Still at Anfield, he signed an extension to his current deal which now tuns until 2022.
Alan Smith
Made the infamous switch to Manchester United that summer, where he suffered serious injuries. He retired from playing at Notts County in 2018, where he briefly had a stint as caretaker manager.

Scott Carson
The former England international moved to Liverpool in 2005 but made fewer than 10 appearances for the club. He’s since spent time at West Brom, Bursaspor and Wigan before making over 150 Championship appearances for Derby County.
He’s now filling the Richard Wright role at Manchester City.
Lucas Radebe
The United legend retired in 2005 after suffering with injuries. ‘The Chief’ was given a memorable testimonial that summer and is set to return for the club’s centenary celebrations.
Now living back in South Africa, the 50-year-old does ambassadorial and charity work with FIFA.
Jason Wilcox
Wilcox retired in 2006 after short stints with Leicester and Blackpool. He’s now Manchester City’s academy director.
Nick Barmby
Hull-born Barmby returned there in 2004, going on to spend eight years at Hull City as player, and also managing them between 2011-2012. He’s not worked professionally in the game since, and the last reports suggested he was coaching non-league Barton Town’s Under 19s.
Jamie Winter
An 18-year-old then, Jamie Winter never went on to make any appearances for Leeds before being sold to Aberdeen in 2005. A nomadic career around the lower leagues has led him to Scottish junior side Carnoustie Panmure F.C, where he currently plies his trade.
