Angus Kinnear explains the matchday price changes
Leeds United are delighted to announce record Season Ticket sales for a Championship campaign. In a phenomenal show of loyalty from supporters, Season Ticket sales are up over 25% from last year.

Supporters who have yet to purchase are urged to do so soon to ensure they can secure their desired location.

These are exciting times for Leeds United supporters with a new owner in the form of Andrea Radrizzani who has already bought Elland Road back as well as supported his new Head Coach with several new recruits.

Managing Director Angus Kinnear said: “We have been really pleased by the response from supporters and it is great to see Season Ticket sales grow so significantly ahead of the new campaign.

We believe Andrea Radrizzani’s takeover, his purchase of Elland Road and the appointment of Thomas Christiansen and our raft of new signings have all contributed to create excitement and optimism. Season Tickets are by far the most affordable way to support the team, offering up to a 40% discount versus match by match prices.”

The club has also announced an increase in match by match ticket prices this week, making Season Tickets even more cost effective for supporters.

Angus added: “We have frozen Season Ticket renewals for the past five years and frozen Junior match by match tickets since 2010 and now for the first time in two years we have increased the price of adult matchday tickets by around 5% with the average ticket costing £2 more than last season”

Kinnear went on to highlight how the additional revenue generated from ticket sales is spent: “Unlike Premier League Clubs who enjoy a vast income from TV, ticketing revenue is our primary source of income and is the largest single factor influencing investment in the team.

“It’s clear from the business that we have done in the transfer market this summer that all money generated from ticket sales is going straight back in to improving the first team which is vital for an ambitious club like ours which wants to be competitive, yet does not benefit from parachute payments.

“To assist supporters who can only attend occasional matches we will continue our members discount and we will be introducing new cheaper ticketing bundles throughout the season. We will always ensure that, in the round, our pricing is not out of line with other leading clubs in our division."

To clarify the introduction of an A+ category this year, this will only be used for exceptional fixtures where we judge that demand will outstrip supply.

Season Ticket Holders can enjoy every home Sky Bet Championship game for as little as £21.04 per match, with Under 11s equating to just £3.00 per game during the 2017/18 season.

"offering up to a 40% discount versus match by match prices."

So, a fiver = 40%, a shame they have to do the bod that cant "afford" every game or has family and kids to support!..

Can a man/woman get a family season ticket which the more kids they have the bigger % is deducted?..

Or is it just a rip off for them?..

At the prices shouldn't Port Vale be a sell out ?

No because like the fa cup, it's been destroyed by teams fielding weaken sides.

"Just remembering wherr (sic) we came from."

So go hang out at the League One board then.
