East Rider 589 Posted February 11, 2019 Just pondering which will be the first part of their hovel will be closed first, due to lack of attendees next season (or even the end of this one)? Will it be the upper tier of the tired one opposite the away fans, or one of the two behind the goals traditionally covered in pigeon droppings and dirt. It must be lonely sitting in those upper areas watching the cr7p they serve up. I'm aware they have been gradually reducing the seats over the last few years and have a capacity of about 28k, but that must surely be 8-10k too many seats? With the stands the only thing the actually own as a club, at least they can have some control over this. What joy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

East Rider 589 Posted February 12, 2019 I did wonder if instead of closing the stand which is next to their outside practise pitch, they could simply open the back of it and turn the seats round. They could then have our ressies play there during home games to increase the numbers, and improve the entertainment on offer. Give them decent football to watch perhaps. Of course it may prove a issues with some. I mean what decent City reserve player would want to travel down there and play in those conditions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rich T The Biscuit 676 Posted February 12, 2019 Thought you were going to say the pitch. Based on their style there isn’t much need for the grass 😂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crispeduk 282 Posted February 12, 2019 They'll need to get their act together a bit sharpish - National League ground standards are pretty strictly applied, so they may have to drop through that one too without kicking a ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
......and Smith must score. 1,588 Posted February 13, 2019 If Leeds need something from the last game and don't get it their fans will I'm sure be happy to carry out some free ground ' improvements ' on their way out..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
East Rider 589 Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) I suspect Leeds will redesign most of the town centre if they lose out. 500k worth of improvements. Edited February 13, 2019 by East Rider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
