Leeds Sell-Out as record crowd anticipated


By Jack Nolan
April 24 2008

Gillingham's final away game is expected to be the Football League's record attendance of the season as Leeds have sold out all home tickets currently available. Gillingham also expect to sell out their allocation providing The Gills defeat Swindon on Saturday.

Depending on Gillingham’s result against Swindon Town on Saturday, The Gills are also expecting to take a sell-out traveling support.

Gillingham have currently sold just under half of their initial allocation of 1,000 which can rise to 1,800 as it seems most fans are waiting until the Swindon result to decide whether to make the trip north. 

Leeds have said however that under no circumstance will both sets of supporters be sharing the same stand to make more tickets available.

We will sell out our allocation if we beat Swindon on Saturday, but what cant blame fans waiting as who would want to go to a stadium like ER with 38,000 fans, when next season could be going to the likes of Accrington Stanley...who are they?!?

Hopefully no Leeds fans do try getting in the away end...don't want to be relegated then have trouble breaking out in the away end.

Should be a good game, hopefully we can nick a 94th minute winner on the counter attack to keep us up grinning smiley

Unlike a lot of Leeds fans, I hope you guys dont go down. It is an awful feeling and I would not wish it on anyone. Good luck against Swindon and lets make our game a day for us all to remember.

dont think there will be too many scally based chants coming from the leeds fans, maybe a few paul scally is a w@#$%& but thats it, if we win on friday (2nyt) it will be play off s comfirmed and nothing but a party atmoshpere instead of the usual hostile atmoshpere of elland road. praying for a win 2nyt for leeds. and so should you be.

Sorry but as a Leeds/Maidstone Utd supporting Man of Kent now living in West Yorkshire I really hope Gills do go down. Football is a tribal thing, and Gillingham are one of a (smallish) number of clubs I love to hate!

can`t understand why you lot haven`t sold your allocation. why wouldn`t you want to come to ER? full house, great atmosphere. you`ll regret it when your at rochdale or bradford next season.
come along and learn how to give scally some real stick.
WE`LL NEVER PLAY YOU AGAIN.(Sm12)
