Leeds United’s atmosphere is up there with the most famous in British football but that vocal support carries far beyond Yorkshire. An Elland Road ticket can be hard to come by these days with thousands keen to support their side on home soil at every opportunity.
It is not just the Elland Road games that can prove difficult to attend, following Leeds away from home up and down the country could turn into an expensive hobby. However, there are thousands who make the journeys every season to back their team. Daniel Farke’s side are aiming for promotion to the Premier League this campaign and can count on sold-out away support when on their travels.
