A November 2007 signing by Tony Pulis, Leon arrived on a two month emergency loan from Crystal Palace.
A former Southend United centre half, Cort joined Hull City in 2004 and went on to score 10 goals from defence in just over 80 appearances.
A £1,250,000 move to Selhurst Park followed in the summer of 2006 and by the end of the season Leon had picked up the Player of the Season award.
Ironically, his last game for Palace before moving to the Britannia Stadium came against City as the Potters secured a 3-1 at Selhurst Park.
A big, strong defender, Leon has now played over 170 consecutive games without receiving a yellow card.
City then broke the club's transfer record with the completion of a £1,200,000 transfer of Cort in January 2008.
