Chickens named after Leeds United's team during Uganda charity visit

Whether it was turning out in their thousands for the victory parade, designing murals or paying their own special tributes, the team will certainly go down in folklore after an exceptional campaign that saw The Whites promoted to the Premier League.

But one of the more unusual ways for the team's legacy to be marked happened in Uganda last week when a set of chickens that were purchased for a village community were named after the likes of Dan James, Jayden Bogle and Willy Gnonto.

The landlady of The Moot Hall Arms on Mill Hill, which is one of the most popular city centre pubs for Leeds United fans, was in the African country for eight days last week on behalf of Nkuringo Education and Community Support (NECS).
