I have found these 2 progs amongst my stuff. Any ideas on season ?

First one is Northern Intermediate League match Doncaster Rovers v Leeds Utd with no date info at all anywhere on the programme. Some clues in the editorial. Doncaster reached the NIL cup final that year. Pete Gumby was manager of the Leeds side who had reached QF of the FA Youth Cup.

Second one is a Bradford City v Leeds Utd in Pontins League played on Tuesday 1st October but no year stated.

Doncaster won the Northern Intermediate Cup Final in 86/87. Leeds reached the 5th Round of the Youth Cup in 86/87, the 5th round being the quarter finals in the 80's. So...possibly 86/87?

Thanks looking at when the date was a tuesday narrowed it to 1985, 1991 or 1996 so thanks for the clarification. I assume it was some of the players that places it 1991 rather than 85 or 96 ?
