Will Leeds be a home sell out?

No. let it go :lolol:

Gus is not gonna sign another striker unless it's a top quality proven goalscorer imo and that is likely to be out of our price range. We'll stumble on hoping for one of the ones we have come good or for CMS to regain his early season form.

I think you're right - let's hope that one or more of our current crop of strikers comes good, and soon.

They have passed their tickets on to JCLs.
... or people who can't ordinarily afford season tickets, or afford the time, or afford the travel costs,.... anyway, all are welcome in my book, unless they are Leeds fans sitting in the home stands,... then they are asking for a shoeing.

Two days ago There were about 70 left in the South and East which is bizarrely still a South ticket number. So where are all these hundreds that are not sold?

S1B was released yesterday (half of it) and this half had over 350 seats. There is potentially some more space that could be offered in the souther half of S1B too (100 or so) and also some of the eastern half of S1G could be offered. Some of these halves will be needed for segregation though.

Also, for every game so far that has been close to selling out, additional SW corner and ESU seats have been made available very late in the day - to the best of my knowledge, these have not appeared yet.

Very strange marketing. Why not put all available on at the same time? They don't release theatre tickets one block at a time , for instance.

An onfire winning Albion will fill Falmer no problem but with it being on Sky and our poor recent run, the glory hunters will give it a miss so no sell out imo. I think we probably have more than your average number of fair weather fans tbh. This goes back to Goldstone days too.

Lucky we have so many season ticket holders otherwise I think that the crowds may start to fall away until we come out of this bad patch.

Yup. I thought that about the ST situation as well. Be interesting to see how many don't get renewed next season.

25k is still bloody great! I'll be there, I love going, so nothing's going to put me off. Friday evening after work seems great, nice to drink a few beers and let off steam from a hard week.

Come on Brighton. 3-1...

S1B is like being at an away ground with the proximity to the away fans. View is not that terrific either. And being next to segregated seats is not desired. Furthermore the price at £36 and the horrendously crowded trains going to evening games (not so bad on the way back) will put people off for evening games. Knackered after work, crowded trains is a big offput.

Recommendation is like away games to go to S1B with a group and generate a bit of your own atmosphere.

Wish I was going, but I'm in Cornwall for the week. Stuck my seats up on the ST Exchange and the've not been sold yet so there's at least 2 seats in WSU available.

The pre-match brief says a home sell out is hoped for, however there are nearly 350 tickets available online.

For this game we have not seen the 100 odd that make a late appearance in the SW corner and the ESU.

There is also more potential seats available to sell in the southern half of S1B (not all as some will be for segregation) and the same for the eastern half of S1G.

Would be great to have a packed Amex for the TV cameras. Had we been in a better vein of form or had Leeds been allowed the full 3000 allocation then this would have been a sellout days ago and I'm sure any tickets that would have come available via the exchange would have also been supped up.
At a guess the 100 odd tickets that normally appear late on will have been snaffled up already as comps (FA/FL/VIPs/Sky)
