Funny that. You averaged 3413 in 96/97. So basically when you started moving up the table your gates increased five fold.

If that's not glory seeking I really don't know what is.

Work that out in your poxy per head of population formula.

3413 is an absolute embarrassment. Nearly as bad as failing to make it past August in Europe......

If you're after a history lesson, our attendances started to grow long before we got promoted and considering we were in administration, utterly ****e and in a stadium which was half closed due to being condemned, our attendances were actually very impressive in the lower leagues...

2014 1st tier 24.117
2013 2nd tier 17.369
2012 2nd tier 18.790
2011 2nd tier 21.169
2010 1st tier 24.390
2009 1st tier 24.816
2008 2nd tier 18.025

2006 2nd tier 19.841
2005 3rd tier 18.025
2004 4the tier 16.847

Do you want to check our average attendance in our first full season at the KC when we finished mid-table? I'm pretty sure you wont actually so I'll do it for you - we averaged 12,843 and finished 13th. Season after we averaged 16,847 when still in the bottom division. If anything our fans are stadium rather than glory supporters.

Leeds has a population 3 times that of Hull so for every game when we get 23k, you need to attract 69k just to match the ratio of fans attending. So tell me when did that last happen?

You know a club's on it's arse when the only thing it's supporters can cling onto is a half decent attendance record. <laugh>

Leeds.....hahahahaha, all you're known for these days is being a cautionary tale of what irresponsible ownership can bring.

What's funny is that you've been leaping out of frying pans into fires and back again in that regard ever since your PL demise.

They're the same as the ****ing Jawdies, always going on about attendances. They're both the only club in cities with huge populations - of course they should have big attendances. It's not something to be proud of, having your club based in a big city with no other clubs. Why is this some kind of badge of honour?
 
Why are you lot so firmly routed in the past?

In 1923, your average attendance in the second tier was 13,135, which is pathetic and also hilarious given that your stat for us was us in Division 3. See how I can pluck statitstics from anywhere to prove a point?

We were in the bottom half of the bottom division, the club was broke and we couldn't attract the gates, take a look at some of the other clubs attendances at that time and now who were in our position, like Accrington, Morecambe, Newport and Northampton and you'll see that your "absolute embarrassment" is nothing more than arrogance on your part. We might not have won anything major, but our history is just as important to us as yours is to you. It might not be as glamourous, but it's ours and perhaps the humble nature of our footballing upbringing is why our fans aren't arrogant ****ers who bleat on about other clubs who haven't won anything. When you spend a cold Tuesday night at Plainmoor in the rain (and the way you're heading, I'd start planning the route now), you can really appreciate how good 18th place in the top flight really is.

In fact, as it stands, we're the 18th best club in the country. And you're the 40th. Behind our other, traditional lower league friends Bournemouth and Brentford. Put that in your ****ing trophy cabinet.
That's beautiful and well said.

That's naughty but very funny!
 
Touchy lot the white ****e aren't they?

Hattie, if you'd have been a codhead from Grimsby, this wouldn't be a bite, it'd be a ****ing trawler full <cheers>
 
I love that the OP came on here specifically to tell us how little we matter to him. It's always funny when people on forums have these retaliatory outbursts, like it's gang warfare or something, but for him to specifically say we don't matter to him is particularly ironic.

It's an oddity of Leeds fans that they're always reminding us how we don't matter to them, as if we really want to be hated by them, and insisting that they have a huge rivalry with Man United, as if that somehow makes them more significant.

You don't exactly cover yourself in glory when it comes to attendances. I remember when Leeds scum where getting gates of around 8000 against the likes of Carlisle in the second tier in the 1980s.

MARCHING ON TO NOWHERE. WE WANT TO SEE YOU LOSE!!!

Why are these inbred ******s on our forum?

I didn't even realise you were 20th in the Championship until I read this thread. That's how much I give a **** about Leeds United.
