Sitting on the half way line in WSU I would definitely have said that when they got going they were louder than the north.
They didn't get going very often though, did they? Compared to their last two visits it was a very poor effort tonight.

I sit in the WSU and there were a lot of empty seats in the North, far more than usual. I assume it was the same in our stand but it's difficult to see your own stand.

As for Leeds fans. From where I was sitting (G Block, nearer the North) they have easily been the loudest away fans this season.
Agree with Mr Q. However that "champions of Europe " chant makes little sense. To their credit they did try to start my favourite clapping "chant". If that makes sense.
They reckon the Ref was bribed when they lost the 1975 European Cup Winners Cup Final, and they have a strong argument, so they sing to claim the prize that should be theirs and the history books deny them.
I know all that. And I can even have a smidgen of admiration for keeping the grudge going. But it was a long time ago and a lot of their support will be too young to have been there.
I still bear a grudge against the cheats Saints and Spurs but I would not sing about it every game 36 years on.
they sung "we are leeds...we are leeds" so much - thanks for letting us know who we played last night, wouddn't have known otherwise!
Doesn't stop our lot making reference to Boxing Day every game
they also did our 83 cup clap!
I gathered that they were Leeds a couple of times

There was a bit of needle in the queue to get on the train after the game and could sense something was on the cards. Seemed to become a little less tense on the train with an exchange of songs - but then the doors open and a fairly decent fist fight ensued.
Anyone else see this? 22.16 back to Brighton.
