Yet Chelsea,Man United,West Ham take hundreds of lads on the train there and have done for years?
What would City take ? 200 max on train

If they can't police football, then there shouldn't be a club in Leeds! :old:

There is truth to this, Yorkshire police had intelligence that suggested City fans were making the trip on the train so between them and Leeds they tried to put a voucher exchange on for the game, the football league were brought into the matter and instructed Leeds that they must give us a minimum of 500 tickets with NO RESTRICTIONS.

The truth is that approximately only 50 train tickets have been sold anyway, so it is something over nothing as far I can see.

Personally I would tell Leeds Utd to stick their 500 tickets and Cardiff City FC will not accept restrictions or a reduction in tickets.

Talks are ongoing between relevant parties to try and resolve this ridiculous situation.

Carl the club should stop negotiations and simply say next season leeds fans will not be welcome at cc and wont be allocated any tickets! :thumbup:

As this issue seems to crop up every time we go there does anyone know why? There's never been any bother there has there as we always seem to play them midweek in January or something. Does it stem from the club itself still hating us for kick starting there decent into a nothing club? The fact they never beat us? Or is it the police with the issue?? Weird.

Leeds United supporters don't hate Cardiff, in fact they don't even think about us.

Are you the voice of Leeds United? :lol:

Far from it, but I have links to Yorkshire and I am telling you that we are not on their radar.

if you know your football you would also know that is the case.

Off the top of my head, there are at least 25 clubs they would be more concerned about than Cardiff.

Yes of course. Leeds fans I know still have a hatred for us and call us their bogey team... But if you know different, then who am I to disagree.

He has links in Yorkshire therefore he is the voice of Leeds United

I'm a Cardiff fan so I have no affiliation with Leeds United. Just stating facts. Leeds main rivals are Manchester United, followed by the their Yorkshire rivals Boro, Millwall, believe me we are way down the list.

What's more they have a massive Welsh connection linked to John Charles, Speed and the like. For some reason we have this misconception which as I say if you are into your football you would know is false.

I'll tell my friends from Yorkshire later then that some bloke on a forum told me to tell them their wrong in their opinions.

I think the general reaction of Leeds fans when we play them tells a different story, there own police are also far more worried about cardiff fans showing up than any other club despite the fact that we don't have a hooligan following anymore. It's safe to say they do dislike us, my mate who lives in Leeds and has plenty of Leeds supporting work mates also confirms this. I find it quite amusing and really couldn't give a monkeys about the once big Yorkshire club, like most cardiff fans.

Maybe Leeds want to treat us upon their own train travelling standards.. As I posted earlier this week their fans have the worst reputation and arrests whilst travelling on the trains according to BTP with 77 arrests as reported by the guardian..

Our club should subsidise our travel and allow us to protest in numbers.. Absolutely disgraceful treatment if our fans yet again but good on CCFC on standing their ground and supporting us..

If Cardiff are Leeds main rivals, why would the fixture at Elland Road attract an attendance below 18,000 ?

If they were playing a rival I'm sure the attendance would be in excess of 34,000 but what do,I know.... :happy1:

I love how you've twisted it from saying 'they don't like us and consider us a bogey team' to 'rivals and attendances' not what I was saying at all. Saying that mind, every other poster has the same opinion as me so I suppose you had to twist it to sound right.

Re: Leeds old bill want City fans stopped from going on trai

Sat Apr 04, 2015 2:10 pm

I'm hardly twisting it, why would I wish to ?

If that's what you think, fine, I'm just putting accross what I know, from experience. if you think the Fa Cup game in 2002 is etched in the average Leeds fans your sadly mistaken I'm afraid ( besides it was hardly World War 3 and Leeds main support was in Hereford until Very late)

Re: Leeds old bill want City fans stopped from going on trai

Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:19 pm

Every Leeds supporter I have met on holiday or whatever they hate us and blame that cup win of ours in 2002 as the start of the rot so to say they are not bothered I am sorry you are mistaken , maybe u know Leeds supporters who are not bothered but I am yet to meet one.

Besides the supporters the club hate us, with the picture of Ridsdale handing a glass of champers to the Hull chairman when they beat us on the last game of the season back in the ninian days that had sent Leeds down to league 1.

Ridsdale factor alone pissed Leeds off lol The fact that they are making is so difficult to go to Leeds proves that the club
are only doing this because they dislike us
