I know a Leeds supporter who is bringing 6 other Leeds fans and they have purchased tickets for the East Stand. They are OK and the party includes children so they will behave their selves.
I'd be more afraid of the children mate.
Lol, they all come from Kent
What with Polish accents? - no only kidding.
Why would anyone want to support Leeds whilst living in Kent? - Bizarre
Still see them as a top 5, possibly top 3, club in terms of size. Definitely bigger than Chelsea, Spurs, City, and Newcastle. Arguably as big as Arsenal. Obviously current Elland Rd attendances don't reflect this, but if they were top prem....
Tbf the price they are charged at home don't help.

You're having a laugh pal, people like rugby to much in Leeds to even dream of the support Newcastle gets.
You can't fault their away numbers. I always look forward to playing them and lots of Champs clubs will feel that way. Leeds is a huge city with only one football club to support so it is only to be expected.
There will of course be Leeds in home areas, for the same reason as there were Charlton in home areas at Bournemouth! Of the London away days the Valley is generally preferred to the Toolbox or Loftus Road for obvious reasons.
Welcome, Leeds. Please leave the Jimmy Seed in the same condition you found it (unless you fancy carrying out some running repairs at half time?)

Accept it OP, a few clubs are and always will be bigger than your "massive" dee dah collective.

If you were talking about one of the old firm clubs I would agree, but not Leeds. I would say based on fan base alone their around Man City, West Ham, Aston Villa, Everton level but not as big as Spurs or Newcastle. Even lower if you factor in trophies.
I've heard it said that Birmingham are the Millwall of the Midlands.
I remember watching Brum playing Leeds on tele in the 90s and a "Blues' fan chucked a snooker ball at Gary McCallister from the stand.
I also remember watching them live at Edgeley Park in the early 90s. Old Div 4. End of season. They'd already got promoted. Their fans were rabid. A number climbed on top of the scoreboard- bout the same height as the roof of the Jimmy South stand from pitch level to summit. They sat on top dangling legs over the edge. Horses on the pitch at the end.
Didn't like the way Andy Hughes was mugging us off by running over to the Leeds fans last time we played them. Giving it all the banging on the chest when they were signing "hughsie hughsie YOUR LEEDS and you know you are YOUR LEEDS" I thought it was disrespectful to us. He never plays and when he does he is playing up to the Leeds fans in a Charlton Shirt......Maybe its just me?

That said imo they have the best away support in the Country.
They are a 1 team City mind - helps.
