THE Leeds United, season ticket refund offer.

[hans kraay fan club]

Don't remember all the exact details, but (before selling a chunk of the club) Cellino made a very generous promise to the Leeds fans, that anyone who renewed their season tickets by a cut-off date would receive half (?) of their money back, if the side finished outside the top six.


No pressure then.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

They've been loving that prospect over on Owlstalk.

 

[Daffy Duck]

I hope they're not holding their collective breath!
Think they might have rather a long wait.

Would be funny if such a refund made them fail FFP.

 

[Nixonator]

It'll be a voucher to use in their club shop where they will increase margins by 500%.

 

[Ernest]

Wonder what the small print to it says ? Or will he say as he no longer owns the club the deal is void

That initiative, which is not being repeated during the 2017-18 campaign, left Leeds facing a possible seven-figure pay-out

I doubt that it would as Cellini will take it straight off the manager and players wages

I guess that's a joke that's over my head.

 

[Easy 10]

Leeds are four games away from qualifying for the Championship play-offs and have a strong chance of returning to the top flight for the first time in 13 years next month.

Just a prod at the likely dealings of the Leeds chairman. On a more serious note, I would assume that the club took out insurance against this.

Fair.

Really? I'm not so sure.

Can anyone take out insurance against 'STUPIDITY' , well probably not !

 

[Postman Pat]

£400 per season ticket, 14,500 sold, £100 coming back.

£1,450,000 to pay out I reckon.

I'm sure Cellino will winkle out of it.

The paragraph:

'Sales for the current season reached 14,500, the highest figure recorded since United’s relegation from the Premier League in 2004, and helped to deliver a marked increase in attendances at Elland Road.'

is quite eye opening. I always thought Leeds were one of highly supported outfits outside the premier league...guess not!

The Leeds fans are constantly berating Reading fans on Twitter about attendances, but as a percentage of stadium full, our attendances are actually higher than theirs

More interesting that the bigger refund was only due if they sold 15,000, which they failed to do. I'd have thought a club of Leeds' size would have shifted more than that in a normal season, let alone one with some promise. Good news for Cellino is that he only has to pay back 25% instead of the 50% thanks to that.

They still might make the play offs, surely Fulham & the Massive playing each other on the final day could help with that?

Yeah we pissed all over Leeds too at Withdean.
