Leeds Word On The Tweet

“Any danger of it changing”, “It’s a joke” – So many Leeds fans have same issue with club update

|

So many Leeds United fans have been voicing the same issue with the club’s ticketing policy, after it was announced what criteria will be needed for the FA Cup Third Round trip to Arsenal in January.

We are scheduled to face the Gunners at the Emirates Stadium on Monday, January 6 in a televised clash set for a 19:56 kick-off, and have been allocated approximately 8,000 tickets for supporters wishing to attend.

Tickets will be prioritised for members of the club’s Away Season Ticket scheme, with the remaining allocation then falling to supporters with the most away matches attended during the 2018/19 season.

The first round of tickets hitting the market on Wednesday, December 11 will be for fans with 10 or more matches in their Away Attendance Tracker, before 2019/20 home season ticket holders will be given a 72-hour window to claim tickets on a first-come, first-served basis as of Friday 13.

If any tickets remain unsold by the end of the week, Gold Members will be able to purchase a ticket from Monday, December 16, in the final window currently scheduled by the club.

Does the club's policy need changing?

Yes, absolutely

No, it rewards loyalty

The continued use of away credits earned through the 2018/19 season has proven to be a cause of anger among parts of the Elland Road faithful, who have been reacting to the club’s ticketing update by calling for a change in how away tickets are sold.

Others have simply voiced hope in being able to claim a ticket through one of the later stages of the club’s scheduled sale period, knowing that they face a challenge to purchase one due to the number of fixtures they have previously attended.

Here are some of the messages shared…
