Leeds have sold out the north stand allocation already even at CAT A* prices!!!! Let's hope we can have a big crowd, even though it is expensive and on tv!! Hoping lot's of people have bought flexi tickets and will be using it for this one!
Brilliant following. Was always going to sell out and say what you want about them but they only went on sale at half ten this morning and that was only to international and gold members only.
Won't be many Barnsley folk pay £36 a ticket And I didn't have a season ticket neither would I Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
To be fair to them, they always fill the away end. Always have. They'll be feeling they've a good chance at oakwell given their recent form, but we're not the same team they beat at Elland Road. If we're both still on decent runs it should be a great game. Always fancy us against them though, Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk
This fixture is nailed on for trouble isn't it. There are likely to be Leeds all over the ground in spite of the ticket office precautions. Bizarre kick off time, lads tanked up from a days drinking and two of the biggest Hoolie groups in the Country - Leeds and SYP!! Guaranteed trouble.
They went on sale to season ticket holders weeks ago, they're was like 1000 that went on this morning
Leeds have had over a decade of dross though to be fair. Doubt Leeds will be allowed in the West Stand, we seem loath to selling that part of the ground at all never mind to away fans with resultant extra policing costs. Should be an interesting afternoon!
Only because the form has been brilliant for the last 2 months, otherwise they wouldn't have sold out at £36 when on sky. They didn't completely fill it once a few years ago.
They have had a torrid record against us, that's probably why they haven't sold out every single season, it's only a couple of times they haven't. They manage to fill out everywhere else despite being ***** for the most of the last few years and being run by nutters. http://www.efl.com/documents/travelling-fans-average549-2598175.pdf As you can see from the above they have had the largest average followings in the football league for the last five recorded seasons, 15/16 will be out shortly. Sheff Weds average a thousand less than them most seasons.
As far as I'm aware, that section of the stand is no longer safe enough to house the numbers they'd bring. I believe that's the reason why Newcastle weren't given that half either. #TeamsLikeBarnsley
