DonRevieTheKing Posted December 28, 2016 Visiting Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) How many season tickets did you sell this season? By the looks of things, your crowds are holding up nicely after relegation. Edited December 28, 2016 by DonRevieTheKing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why 2,600 instead of the usual 2,900?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of the official number mate (one of my fellow posters might be able to help out) but I understand it was well in excess of 20,000.

Rugeley Villa Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) not sure why Leeds have not had the full allocation but I assume it's a security decision which is stupid tbf. I think we sold 20k season tickets. Our crowds have been good and we will easily average over 30k, and they call us fickle Edited December 28, 2016 by Rugeley Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor support, like but great history. Too many teams are. branded as being big like Sheffield Wednesday, Derby etc. I recall Wednesday averaging 24k in the Premier League and that was in 2000 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd throw in wolves aswell, great club. Edited December 28, 2016 by Rugeley Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if Gardner has recovered from his knock, then I'd go with: ------------Gardner--------Westwood------------- Adomah------------Grealish----------------Ayew ----------------------Kodjia----------------------- But it does seem a bot harsh on him drop Bacuna. Anyway, bench of: Gollini, Elphick, Jedinak, Bacuna, Gestede, McCormack, Cissokho These two? Did someone hack your laptop? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, Gardner can do the Jedinak job as well as Jedinak and Westwood is our most mobile central midfielder. I'd sooner have another two quite frankly, but for me, these are the best two we've got at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted December 28, 2016 Moderator Share Posted December 28, 2016 Not that it matters much, I have a feeling it'll be Jedinak plus one. Gardner is doubtful with a knock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mad as it might seem yes we are. Must admit I like the look of your team this year. You also have a very good manager who's very progressive and can easily hack the premier league imo.

The Fun Factory Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 We need to improve from Boxing day if we are to get another win. Leeds are a different kettle of fish than Burton. Whatever the result wrap up warm- it is going to be parky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must give Monk a long term contract as he's on a one year contract. The sooner Cellino clears off the better. Credit to Monk- the man's assembled a squad from scratch and he's combined some older heads with some academy products. Very progressive as you say. 12 years in the wilderness has hurt everyone. January is massive- we have to tie down Pontus Jansson, Pablo Hernandez and bring in a backup striker. Elland Road is fast becoming a fortress- unbeaten in 8 there and the crowds are returning- looking to be a home sell out for Rotherham next week.
