last time we played them was mid season, nothing to play for and they had 5,000 and kicked off before and after. This time they are going for promotion with half the allocation. all box holders have received emails telling them any trouble and they will banned. not once this season have box holders had that email

Nuneaton whites have invited many down and this has been planned months ago before they restricted the ticket sales

That's more down to the clientele in our boxes in recent seasons. It's more likely to kick off there and in block 2/3 than it is if you put 200 Leeds in the corner.

the same boxes that have been half empty all season even on Monday but tomorrow are completely sold out. ticket sales for this game have been more healthier than any other game months in advance way before the ticket restriction came into place

Just funny because imagine spending over a grand on a box for an away game and kicking off. You'd be out the door instantly. A lot of money for an average fella from Yorkshire.
it's madness

almost as mad as a thread this long based on something some said their mate heard and told them

there wasn't loads of Leicester fans in our end and they are the ones who actually claimedthey were going to be buying loads of tckets in the home end

All this talk of "faces" etc? is this Quadrophenia? Is Sting a Leeds fan?

Ohhh 30 fans who didn't actually get in

You do realise that pointing out people who we stopped from going the home end doesn't actually help your argument?

You claim there are going to be lots of Leeds fans in the home end, I pointed out that Leicester had no fans in the home end even after claiming they would, you helpfully pointed out that the ones who tried which numbered a massive 30 and they were stopped anyway.

There are not going to be more than a handful in the standard home section, there will be a few in hospitality but that is allowed and is how it always is.

Biggest is debatable, less trophies , smaller attendances than sunderland and 20 less years in the top flight


Sunderland averaged less than 30k once in the last 20 years , Leeds 16 times

Biggest 1 club city in the UK and everybody loves licking their arses , their crowds are no bigger than expected and If we are honest should have been bigger in history

If hospitality is completely sold out, why is it still on sale?

In fairness I think Elland Road holds 39,000 and there are plans to expand. For some matches they could have got over 40k this season .
Sunderland's support is absolutely phenomenal. On the basis of support they are far and away the biggest club in this league and top 6 premier league. The stadium of Light isn't big enough for some premier league games. They'd sell well over 55k if capacity allowed.

have a look at whats available. no boxes left, all been taken. first time this season. the club have even admitted that some boxes will have both Leeds and cov fans in

What do you mean “admitted”? It happens all the time.

In 2003 my Dad got us tickets in a box at Walsall through his work. It’s no big deal

Did you really log in to check just to prove a point to a random username on a message board?

Yes.

To prove someone is talking nonsense I can be extremely petty

doesn’t happen all the time. especially with the numbers that are mentioned. in recent times it’s kicked off with Wrexham and Leicester in hospitality. Wrexham over 20 of their fans had to leave at half time

Kicking off doesn’t happen all the time. Most people don’t behave like animals so it isn’t noticeable.

Away fans in hospitality however very much happens all the time.

in those 20 years Leeds have been top flight how long? sunderland spent majority of those years in the prem

When was the last time sunderland in champions league? or last time sunderland won the top flight title?
