Gabby Logan watched as Leeds United paid tribute to her late father Terry Yorath ahead of their 1-0 win against Fulham at Elland Road on Saturday. 

The broadcaster was joined by some family members as she watched a minute of applause for her dad, who died aged 75 earlier this month.

Yorath played for Leeds between 1967 and 1976, winning the First Division in 1973-74 as well as reaching the finals of the European Cup, European Cup Winners' Cup, and the FA Cup.

Logan, 52, was joined by her daughter Lois, her brother Jordan, and his fiancee Leanna Corban.

Players gathered around the centre circle to clap and wore black armbands. Tributes were also paid at other clubs which Yorath had graced including Bradford City. 

Speaking on her The Sports Agents podcast recently, Logan said she had been 'overwhelmed' by the support she had received from the public.

'I'm OK, it's been a tough week, but I'm glad to be back in the saddle, after what has been a very emotional few days,' she said. 

'Actually, we're sitting here now having already had our chat with [podcast guest] Robert Smethurst, and some of the things he talks about in terms of football as a community, our family has experienced in bucket loads over the last few days.

'We have been totally overwhelmed and inundated with messages of love, support and stories about things my dad has done through his career and how he impacted lives. 

'It just highlighted to me how important football is and how it connects people. Sport and football really show up in moments like this.'

Logan had been midway through presenting Match of the Day when she was informed of a 'family emergency' and replaced by Mark Chapman. 

Sharing a heartbreaking tribute to her father, she wrote: 'Thank you for your messages of love and support today, it has meant the world to us. Our Dad a warrior on the football pitch, captaining club and country, a kind hearted and generous man off it, would have hated all the attention. (Well most of it).

'The stories that have been shared by strangers with us today have been enormously comforting. He touched so many people’s lives.

'We knew he had limited time, but it is still a shock. Yesterday afternoon [Wednesday] I sat by his bed in St James Hospital Leeds and we had a debate about whether roast potatoes were better with calves' liver than mashed potatoes.

'That was the meal he’d decided he wanted when he went home, tomorrow [Friday]. I left and went to work, he was looking forward to watching Newcastle v his beloved Leeds. He won’t go home tomorrow. But he is reunited with Daniel [Logan's brother who died aged 15] and that will feel like home.

'I am sorry he had to deal with so much pain, the tragedy of the Bradford Fire was forever in his heart and losing Daniel defined the second half of his life.

'Thank you Dad for instilling your passion for fairness. Thank you for playing rounders, or making us race each other after dinner, even though Louise always beat me. Thank you for not making me pay you $1,865,986 after I kept losing at cards on double or quits, when I was eight years old.

'Thanks for teaching me the value of money by challenging me to eat a pot of mustard at dinner in return for £5 so I could buy a pair of shoes I wanted when I was 12 (even though mum was horrified). Thank you for giving me a life long love of sport. Thank you for being a relentless tease with a wicked sense of humour.

'And to the wonderful staff on J16 at Jimmys who cared for him with such tenderness, you are all Angels. I love you Dad.'

She also shared various photographs of Yorath in day-to-day life, including him spending time with the dogs, working in the kitchen, and speaking at her wedding.

Yorath's death provoked an outpouring of loving comments as well as a much-derided contribution from former Sky Sports presenter Richard Keys, who reignited a longstanding feud with Logan with his tribute.

Keys wrote: 'Sad to hear the news of Terry Yorath’s passing. He was a warrior & won fans over wherever he played. He was great for us at Coventry & the reason I got Gabby a job at Sky. I had no idea who she was when we met but I knew her dad. RIP Terry. Your daughter did you proud.'

TNT Sports presenter Laura Woods led the criticism of Keys, writing: 'Sorry… but what a t**t. Said with zero surprise.' She later added: 'Also want to add my respects to the thousands of others who are showing theirs compassionately to a much beloved broadcaster and her family. Sending all my love x.'
