Mjeb Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 I went to the game last night in a corporate box . Amazing Leeds away fans ( No stupid clackers needed just totally committed loyal fans . ) They sung before , during and after the game without a break . Some great songs ,funny ,witty ,offensive , rude , and generally took the pish out of the Liverpool fans library -who are rubbish even with another 10,000 fans in tithe ground now we should get behind our Team just like they do ! our team needs us Now -
blue army 1988 Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 There's a lot of difference with that compared to us. When we were in the championship and we drew a good premier league team in the cup we were just like that. For Leeds it's a great and unusual game where they can cause an upset.
Realist Guy In The Room Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 Plus away fans in general are noisier.
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 I went with a Leeds-supporting mate who I went to watch Charlton vs Leeds with last season. I saw two Nazi salutes before I even got into the ground. Scummiest support in England, we should not be more like them.
Fox92 Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 Bit difficult when you're 4-0 down most of the game or just concede 30 seconds in.
sk3since03 Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 Always had great away support though haven't they !
Mjeb Posted 30 November 2016 Author Posted 30 November 2016 Guess you had to be there to to appreciate how they never stopped singing and got even louder when they were loosing just great fans

Fox92 Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 Brugge away was brilliant this season but hasn't been replicated. As I said above, it's difficult considering we've generally been hammered on our away trips this season, but our away atmosphere is gradually turning into our home atmosphere in terms of only small sections singing.

Not telling you what you did or didn't see..but there's such thing as a "Leeds Salute" that you might have got it confused with. I know a lot of Leeds fans and they are generally just on the wind up 24/7, don't take themselves very seriously at all, good for a laugh and produce some good atmospheres.
Voll Blau Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 Leeds are in the top three most consistent away supports in the country. Yes, they've got some unsavoury nobheads among them but everyone in their away ends seems to get why they're all there - to back their team and enjoy themselves. Vast majority of our lot just don't have that mentality.

Leeds are like that every single game, not just the big nights at Anfield. There is no comparison to be drawn between us and them, they are passionate supporters and it's quite incredible how they still travel in such big numbers after that long in the wilderness.
Izzy Posted 30 November 2016 Posted 30 November 2016 Leeds have always had their fair share of idiots but you can't deny their support (especially away) is quality. They always did and still do take large numbers away to all corners on the country. I for one would love to see Leeds back in the PL

They are just like most other teams, away following are always better than the home.

Captain... Posted 1 December 2016 Posted 1 December 2016 Leeds fans can be accused of many things, racist, scummy, vile, disgusting, but you can't call them quiet (at least not away from home) every game at the Walkers/KP and Filbo they have brought fans in numbers and out sung us, even if it is the same chant over and over again.
