[Albion] Leeds fans

[The Optimist]

I really can`t understand why we give more than 2000 tickets to nasty little teams like leed`s and the scum ,We are not a stupid club are we ? .

In my world anything that is likely to destroy the norm , i change . Leeds and the scum DON`T CHANGE ,so cut their ticket allowance ? .

If they behave revisit the allocation . Other teams already do it to us ,and we are no bother .


Although the most amount of leeds fans to see them lose is great .

Who decides? As the rules state we are supposed to give 3000 tickets to away fans we can’t simply decide not to. Presumably if there was sufficient justification we could but who approves such a decision?

Who limits are allowance to 2000?

That's my understanding, clubs are obliged to give a minimum 10% up to a maximum of 3,000

I think it's a 3,000 unless the ground capacity is over 30k then it's 10% of the capacity.

So Leeds would have gotten a shade over 3k tickets.

I think.

No it’s 10% up to a maximum of 3000. Clubs can give more away tickets if they wish. But do not have to.

What a waste of a ten. Got will do.

 

[Monkey Man]

On the way out of the ground there was a bit of homophobic nonsense from a handful of West Yorkshire's finest.

One inadequate bloke on his own started shouting "we can see you holding hands" before eyeballing me ... and my wife, who told him to "go home, you big baby". He appeared to be gobbing at people, or at least in their general direction.

Another group had a brief singalong of "1-0 to the [David?] batty boys" as they headed towards the station.

I haven't heard this kind of stuff for a while. It almost seems quaint these days.

Not really enough to get too worked up about, but enough to remind me that a lot of Leeds fans have always seemed a bit ... special.

I also find that I really can't be bothered by that sort of buffoonery and normally ignore it or simply treat it with the utter disdain it deserves, but could you actually imagine living amongst that on a daily basis

If they survive this season I think we should ask the EPL for the home match against Leeds to coincide with Pride, and allow the Leeds fans the freedom of Preston Park.

I have an image of the Leeds oik suddenly shutting up and slinking off.

My niece was walking with her son up the ramps to the railway bridge when a full grown Leeds "fan" starting giving him loads of verbals, and started to climb over the dividing fence, my nieces son is TWELVE, (and not a big 12 at that). Luckily my other nieces husband was right behind (he is a 6 foot something rugby player" and "politely" told him to back down

Absolute scum

 

[The Clamp]

Leeds is a typical Northern dump and it’s fans are a bunch of ****ing mutants. We’ll see them in March for the rest of our points.

 

[kemptown kid]

They're known as the Northern Millwall for a reason, but that being said they completely out sung our fans who were the most quiet I've seen them. I don't know what was going on today but fans were silent all game, bad atmosphere, something really need to sort out.

Really? Didn't seem that way where I was in WSL.

 

[stewart12]

remember there was loads of Leeds fans at my uni and every time I went down the SU some prick got the DJ to play that ****ing marching on together song

 

[lawros left foot]

They were very loud at the start of the game with their one song” We all love Leeds” ( repeat, ad infinitum) that they all seemed to join in with.
By the end of the game, a lot of them seemed to have fallen out of love, as there wasn’t half as many singing.

 

[Baldseagull]

I had to go and find a full match replay to see if I could spot this supposed bias from the Ref Leeds fans were moaning about, I reckon maybe 2 fouls given against them were a bit soft, but other than that I thought the ref was very good. I hope they get a proper shocking Man Utd supporting ref in their next match.

In the upper west i heard that chant and genuinely thought they were singing " you're lovely , you're lovely " !

 

[BluesRockDJ]

I use the word fans very lightly!
Anyone else get shoved abused or thumped, pushed over by these morons in the queue for the Brighton train?
Stewards laughed when they pushed over the barriers and ran to take out a bloke on crutches!
Police notable by their absence!
Either ban them or keep them in for an hour!
Absolute animals!

My dog is an animal and wouldn't behave like that !!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I quite like that. We should sing that to them

I met a few on the train home who were quite pissed but generally good humoured and reasonable. Though if I had a quid for every time they said "No disrespect to Brighton, like, but....", I'd have about twenty three pounds.

Also think that we need to measure the response here. Yes, Leeds have plenty of whoppers following them, but unfortunately we have our fair share too. You'll see them on the train to Fulham on Tuesday, singing crap songs about paying other people's benefits (which I always think seems quite unlikely, looking at some of them) and telling literally every other club in the world that their support is ****ing shit or rolling out the ancient and tiresome "Sign On" at Anfield. They're also perfectly capable of being racist: I've heard the Bolasie/ Ebola song plenty of times over the years and there's one for Zaha too which escapes me momentarily. These idiots, of course, wouldn't see either of those as racist, but I've never heard a song about Ebola being sung at a white player.

Cryptic but I think I get your point. And you're entitled to your opinion.
