    Came across this exchange on Twitter. Good news, I hope!

    @SalemPatel @haighdavid @LeedsUnited_MAD I am sure you have been asked millions but will the ticket prices for next season be reviewed?


    and the reply that inspires hope ....

    <ok>

    They will hopefully be more sensible with renewals and ask for the earliest ones in March sort of time rather than January. So they have three months - a quarter of a year - to do this review, and hopefully the cheapest season tickets will be 300-400 quid, side stands 100 more than that, with STs in the South Stand and Cheesewedge if fans want them, and better age brackets to attract young fans.

    Very interesting. It's good how the new owners seem to be interacting with the fans through social media such as Twitter, and hopefully taking the feedback on board.

    As we all know, Uncle Ken has never really give a flying **** about what fans think/say.

    You would hope they mean reduced but seriously, don't believe that everything will be reviewed will mean reduced. It would not surprise me if they have a slight increase or price freeze blaming it on expenditure on new players....

    The new owners have made it very clear that their priority is to get the fans back. If their first action is to increase or keep prices they will have proven their intentions through action and that their word cannot be relied upon.

    I am optimistic that prices will fall substantially but the only way it will be successful is if they market and promote it with clarity over expectations and a real fan-focus

    You would think a city of 750k would generate bigger crowds. What do all the men in Leeds do on a Saturday afternoon? Do you have a high proportion of homo sexuals?

    Are you claiming, in some bizarre and weird way, that gay people don't like football?

    Unbelievably lame attempt at wummery. Must do better, while not coming across as a fascist phobic twat

    Try again dickhead

    I've already answered that question the previous three times you asked it. Leeds does have a sizeable gay community like all other big cities, and I especially suspect Kensington, Soho and the general Kings Road environs on your patch shares a similar vibe. Not that it has anything to do with the price of fish.
