I had two Leeds fans sat in front of me on Saturday.  They added nothing to the atmosphere, so I blame them.

I lumped the tourists/GA+ into the replacements bit. Lower North near the away fans used to be very boisterous, i'm guessing with the cells section that's been very diluted as an example.

Two? I thought Leeds would have had more than that in our sections.

50 won't do a lot but it's a start.

@J_Tanswell

50 seats in the lower North Stand will be used as a singing section against Chelsea. This is with a view to taking up an area in future matches.

Hopefully not the crowd that stood on the Holte steps for that rendition of TBAR that was put out on the socials a few years ago.

The only fan groups they should be talking to about livening things up are the Steamers and the C-Crew.

They’re the only ones who know any decent fucking songs.

We already have a singing section, FFS. It's called "the away end".

Ba-dum-tish.

Great, thin end of the wedge. Give it a few games and some twat will bring a drum, and that will be my last visit.
