Leeds support

[malcolmbrown]

Was at best very poor yesterday. You'd have thought after the run they've had they'd have been full of it.

A bit weird tbh.

[Million Dollar Babies]

Yeah but their support is amazing because they sing along to I Predict A Riot after a win

Should change the words to 'I predict it's quiet'.

[rockwall]

Plenty of empty seats too.

[pterrier]

Considering the context of their form and league position, it must be the Worst set of fans I’ve seen in a long time. Barely any singing, even after they scored the home fans out did them.

[benhomly]

Even walking past the coaches after the game was uneventful and quiet, there's usually some 'banter' between fans down there and has been plenty this season against other clubs. As they've probably got 20,000 corporate types who pay into away allocation systems before their 40,000 knuckle draggers that's probably the reason.

Had to laugh at some of the positive traction that vid was getting on social media last week. Singing along to a (really shit) song on the loud speaker. It was all a bit 'Fulham'

As for yesterday, I've seen some of them blaming the rain for their shite showing in the stands. Hilarious.

Had a run in with 10 backslapping 'tough' guys beforehand who walked all the way from the town centre singing about Dogshaggers, so they were there.

First name terms with every copper they walked past too who didn't seem to have a problem with their behaviour. Must ship in their own chest wanking plods to help with the backslapping.

They probably still believe their fans are the best in the world

The late comers couldn’t be bothered finding seats and just stood down the steps/gangways all game.
Which kind of puts pay to that old excuse from the safety team about how it’s unsafe to have people stood in there after a game, should they wish to hold them back for ten minutes.

[terriersyndrome]

Crap support for a team that had won their last 9 games and started the day in the autos.

Thats a comment that sums up their shit fan base . We make no noise but we never have empty seats. The irony .
Might as well be empty.

[detox]

Think they were overawed tbh...the way L666s started the game seemed like they were scared to take us on, with them playing across their back 4 from the off, and the keeper stood with his foot on the ball outside his box doing nothing... surprised me , i thought they'd start strong and get at us, but they didn't... Maybe that fed to their fans and a feeling of dread came over them as Town got stuck in... Who'd have thought it, bowing down to the mighty Terriers (at last).....

[stevvy]

Yeah thought they were pretty poor. Maybe 1, at a push 2 renditions of MOT, a couple of other songs about Leeds, and a couple of songs saying we had empty seats in our cup final, and that was about it. They were really poor. Ok we were quiet at times but I think second half especially when they equalised that was maybe due to us being a bit nervous in the stands as to if they'd go on to win, but their fans (and to be honest, their team) were absolutely nothing special yesterday. Very 'meh' performance on and off the pitch from them

Just saw the odd 50 year old bloke getting far more wound up than he should and being held back by the police. Disappointing really.

[isitjustme]

Sometimes I wish there was a place where opposing fans could chat and have a laugh like civilised humans, without the vile "banter". Twitter/X clearly isn't the place! We have a Stoke, Watford, even an odd Leeds fan who come on here and chat which is refreshing. Willing to bet there's loads more.......Would be even more enjoyable on here if there was. It just gets a bit tiresome on Twitter at times.....though I do dislike Leeds as much as the next man. 

[richhtfc]

They were strangely quiet compared to usual I agree. On another note I was surprised we didn’t manage to sell out, there were loads of empty seats all over the stadium

[Horney Barry]

It was strange how quiet they were.

Talking about it this morning to an Ipswich fan randomly and he suggested they come across as nervous fans at the minute which you can kind of understand looking to claim a top 2 spot.

Still, they could have been their 13th man yesterday…

[aloadofdbullocks]

Leeds fans myth.

A women’s standard league game today got a higher attendance than their highest crowd in history. 😂😂😂😂😂

[Teddington Ted]

They’re a club on the up and have a large fan base.

Getting a small allocation for an away match probably favours all the corporate types and liggers on over the majority of the hardcore fan base.

A sad indictment of the way the game has gone rather than a dig at their fans.

[bluebeard]

Leeds is the 3rd biggest city in England and their support has always been crap. I knew a couple of season ticket holders yesterday who couldn't make the game for that time but 20,000 home fans isn't bad for a team in the bottom six even though we were playing the mighty Leeds Utd and even Bristol City fans made more noise all 200 of them.

[Tim Nice But Dim]

Apparently yesterday. Leeds coaches were from all over and my Leeds supporting chum tells me that often there is more Leeds fans coaches at the big yellow skip than away coaches.

decent turn out I thought considering most expected a defeat.
About the same as we got for this fixture in our promotion season under Wagner and more than we got the 4 times before that since we returned to this division.

I think for our occasional fans, maybe Leeds isnt as 'special' as it once was after they saw us playing Man Utd, Liverpool Arsenal etc for those 2 PL years?

[turbo2]

They only sing when they play music over the tannoy. Pathetic really. Surprised they haven’t complained we didn’t play mot for them at the start. They’ve complained about everything else

That Kaiser Cheifs video is complete cringe

[Ross83]

Mindset. I think for once, they knew from the off they were getting very little from us yesterday.

[Michael Moon]

Walking past the coaches I said loudly, that’s the quietest away support we’ve seen all season, to which I was told to fcuk off you fat old c**t, think i hit a raw nerve there

I agree with the second part of your statement, but Leeds is the 5th biggest city after London, Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool.

Don’t question anything to do with Leeds’ fans to them. Any narrative other than ‘best in England’ ‘huge’ ‘amazing limbs’ and they kick off. They especially don’t like it when you point out that their stadium was regularly empty before the got half decent.

For example:

[swam4mwg]

Their support was shite! Strange because after the Leicester game they were apparently the best supporters in the world. Funnily enough the play that other 'Massive' club next Friday 😀

They always travel in numbers, no denying that, but I'd say their away support has always depended very heavily on the result. Much like ours, they're often very quiet unless they're winning comfortably.
