Where did the leeds fans go??

[FOOTSKI]

Todays game had over 20k fans.

Are they sure?

The place looked and sounded empty.

 

[empire]

cant ever knock leeds away,but at home,certainly not like it used to be

 

[Smithy]

It was half empty.

 

[Rookie]

Are they boycotting because of Bates?

 

[Braders]

well it's 38k+ so could be both!!

 

[Goring Gull]

Can't you get 40k In Elland Road - so it would hav ebeen half full.

 

[GYM]

Didn't watch but the top tier in the main stand is rarely open these days. That holds a fair whack.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

there were even seats behind their goal which i have never seen before.

Bates is overcharging the away fans, which of course means less away fans taking up residence.
(350 Cardiff fans came recently, also quite a few were kicked out for standing up during the game.... er)

Also people are unhappy with the ticket prices in general and the lack of investment in the team, you will find that there are plenty of us to fill Elland Road, but the general feeling is rather unplesant at the moment, what with us having the worst Chairman in english football incharge of us.

Anyway Elland Road was dead on Sunday. No real atmosphere.

Don't get me wrong, we Leeds fans feel the same as pretty much every away fan that gets overcharged for tickets when coming to Elland Road, just nothing we can do about it.

I honestly think we'l go below 20k fans at some point at home, that said when we're doing well people come crawling out the woodwork so it'l be interesting to see how the figures pan out if we get a foothold in the top 6 and stay there destined for the playoffs
