The club is disappointed to announce that there will be no supporters at Elland Road from Cardiff City at this Saturday’s Sky Bet Championship fixture.

Cardiff City Football Club were originally offered 1,000 tickets as part of a voucher to ticket exchange including a new escorted coach system for their family season ticket groups. This was rejected by Cardiff City who declined the 1,000 tickets offered.

After further consideration Leeds United offered Cardiff City Football Club 500 tickets with unrestricted travel.

Late on Wednesday April 8 Cardiff City notified Leeds United that they did not wish to take up the second offer of 500 tickets unescorted, and that no supporters would travel to Leeds for the Championship fixture at Elland Road.

Leeds United have consulted with West Yorkshire Police and The Football League regarding this matter and Leeds United will continue to work with Cardiff City to try and reach a mutually agreeable solution for next season’s fixtures, both at Elland Road and at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Leeds United has always put the safety management of spectators at the forefront of their planning.

With no away supporters at Elland Road on Saturday the club are expecting a unique atmosphere, and would like to encourage as many Leeds United supporters to attend to support the team.
