Leeds away is looking more ridiculous by the day, both from Leeds and Town tbh
£47 is disgusting and both clubs have failed miserably to address this. Discounting the coaches does nothing for the fans who don't use them.
And it's £50 once the club charge us for putting a ticket in the post. |  |

I agree, for this match ITFC would do well to subsidise the tickets (too late for that) or perhaps to offer £20 off another ticket purchase to those who go. Yes it will be a £40k cost to the club at a time when they need to maximise revenue, but we need a really good following at Elland Rd - that is a mahoosive match. Makes it so much less difficult for the players if we have a noisy full away end. |  |

Just give everyone a £20 Planet Blue voucher, money straight back into the club then plus people likely to spend more. |  |

Making a gesture to fans going to Leeds but excluding those who don't travel on the coaches is a bit of a joke really.
You've appealed to half of the away end whilst simultaneously slapping the other half in the face. |  | | |

I wouldn’t be surprised if the reduced price for coach travel was a jesture from the coach operator., encouraged by the club. |  |

I can think of 100 million reasons why that is easier for Leicester to do than others in the league... |  | | |

While on the subject of away games have people been sent their Watford tickets yet? Still waiting and would have assumed they'd have been sent out by now. |  | | |

A Leeds fan on TikTok posted a video saying our fans were ridiculous for moaning about being charged £47 for a ticket and that because we charged their fans our Category A price of £34, they are charging us their Category A price of £47 in return.
I can sort of see the fairness in that on the surface, but Leeds charging £47 for a ticket is far too expensive for a 2nd tier match, especially when the Premier League have apparently capped match tickets at £30 (although not sure how true this is).
Well done to Leicester though for discounting their prices for the Boxing Day game. |  | | |

It's completely true and has been for several years. I was in the away end at Anfield on Sunday and paid £30 - far less than the home fans next to me. | | | |

Well, my understanding is that Leicester badly need to bounce back this season or they will face financial issues. Their owners also aren't as rich as some think. Subsidising away tickets is a cheap, fan friendly gesture by owners who have always been well regarded by their fans, even before they fluked winning the PL. |  |

I'm sure they do need the money, but with the PL money from last season being £110m, transfer fees in since the summer (£100m+) and parachute money this season the 'gesture' is potentially worth less than 0.2% to them.
As you say a cheap fan friendly gesture, but one they can afford when the majority of the other clubs in the league get £8m a season from TV and have to watch every penny. | | | |

Absolutely disgusting, dirty, underhand tactics by Leeds, I’m 100% sure this was designed to reduce the number of our away fans, and thereby support for the team they’re desperate to catch up with/eventually overtake.
If our full capacity isn’t taken up, those who do go will need to sing and clap even louder! |  |

I doubt they'll miss that ~£25k or so out of their £45M parachute payments. A nice gesture all the same though and this is a case where the value to their relationship with their fans far outweighs the cost. So, good on them. |  |
