Apparently Wigan fans (all 50 of them) are boycotting Elland Road on Boxing Day due to £36 tickets and now the media are getting involved. Funny how they had no problem with Blackburn raising their prices by 20% for Leeds or Norwich charging £40. But if it's not Leeds, they can't have a whinge.

{Ed003's Note - Do you think the price Leeds charge is a fair and reasonable one ? No me neither - so if the Wigan fans want to whinge they are entitled to imo.}

Every club in this league charges their highest prices when Leeds come to town, yet they don't like it if we do the same. I think ER tickets prices should be cheaper, but let's not pretend that if we charged £15, that other clubs in this league would charge the same price for Leeds fans.

{Ed003's Note - Not true 'every club'.}

Blackburn raised there's by 30% mate, not 20

Ipswich was £37

Norwich was £40 on a Tuesday night

I wish they would move the away fans back to the cheese wedge, that corner of the ground is soulless, I know it's something to do with safety but it isn't working from anyone's point of view!

Bournemouth. Brentford at the top
Wigan, fulham, brighton and leeds at bottom
How times change
A good run can get u in the mix but a bad run??
Its going to be an interesting second half of season.
Bit of a lottery this season!
Hope we have a good ticket!

Imagine those tin pot clubs getting promoted. Embarrassing for us and the premier league. Their grounds only hold roughly 12k each

If Bournemouth went up, they'd just be another Portsmouth. Living well beyond their means on small attendances just to try and get promoted.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed003's Note - They do have a rich owner - it was interesting to read they are one of the clubs facing sanctions in January.}

Brentford are getting a new state of the art ground, 21k or something. Still far to small to be a stable premier league club. Should be sides with 30+k stadiums only

Agree0 Disagree0

If they get there then they deserve it regardless of their fanbase.

Agree0 Disagree0

Portsmouth are potentially far bigger than Bournemouth or Brentford if we are talking fan base.

Talking of players with a bit of steel - one of my best memories is the Leeds v Arsenal when this young Leeds lad gave Tony Adams a hard time. I can still remember the commentary on the TV. The longer it went on the put Adams got worked up. oh for another Alan Smith

He was a good ern. Smith. And milner. He always gave 100%

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes two great lads

Agree0 Disagree0

I remember that well too….but more for Smudger standing up to Keown, the dirtiest centre back in the Prem at that time. Keown kicked, elbowed and hacked at him until Smudger had had enough and took his legs away in one particular tackle. Good lad….sadly missed, but hard to forgive for joining the Red!

Agree0 Disagree0

Never rated smith and really don't get it. he gave %100 but that should be minimum expected. He was out and out stirker who offered little to team in way of creating and he goal record was quite poor in a very good team. Like him for effort but in terms of leeds strikers can think of many who were much better IMO

Agree0 Disagree0

Smith or sharp! One gave 100% the other current interest rate!
Smith may of gone to reds but he was whiter than white while he was here!
