Red Alert: 49ers Stadium Expansion Details Revealed! | Leeds United's Dan James Replacement! 📈📊 

Waiting list of 20,000 for season tickets we need a 60,000 all seat stadium

Sick too death of so called supporters calling Bamford a spastic. I'm disabled. I struggle with life. LEEDS UTD. Are a release for me. I love my club. Disabled is not a spastic. Bamford is certainly not a spastic. It's appalling

Stadium absolutely needs to be expanded, prem or not we can sell 50’000 tickets.

55,000 with a view to being able to expand further

Old trafford has a 74k sized stadium. 50k is the minimum we need, hopefully they leave space for further expansion.

Cant wait for the West Stand to be rebuilt. May get a season ticket then?? 55k would be my capacity

The money for the stadium expansion wont effect the transfer budget. It'll operate the same way as any private development does, raising capital through loans and external investment, and paid off in the long run with the money it generates. It's a completely seperate way of financing and doesn't effect the clubs books.

We could easy build a 90.000 state off the art stadium 🏟

I'd be disappointed if we only expanded to 50,000. Exactly with the Club itself saying 20,000 on the waiting list for season tickets. We have to be looking at upwards of 55,000 in my opinion.

I’ve been on the season ticket waitlist for over 10 years mate! 55-60k would be nice. Plus we can rent out the stadium for events, concerts - higher turnover, bigger budgets for transfers, especially on the new FFP model being introduced shortly.

I’m desperate for my season ticket , the sooner the better

I’m all for ground expansion but if the product on the pitch is crap it doesn’t mean nothing. Let’s get promoted first as well 👍🏻

As someone who regularly attended home games with crowds of 9k to 14k i believe 50k is plenty

Weeeeellllll the Hull win tonight has thrown the "Cat amongst the pigeons"....that means they are so close to the play-offs that the Hull vs Ipswich game becomes VERY important to them. That will be a fascinating game.

It’s about time tbh elland road has been left stagnant for years up on years .. I’d do behind the goals like St James park . Generate a right atmosphere ive seen the plans to have a massive stand cross from the east stand it just looks weird . Can easily do 50-60 every k single week

We could full 70k stadium easily

I’ve always thought Elland Road should be in at least the same bracket as St James’ Park/Stadium of Light for capacity. When you modernise you also start to become more attractive for Europa/Europa Conference finals, gigs, rugby league finals etc which will bring in more money.

So west ham can fill out a 60k stadium and we're a one city club , Leeds can fill out world breaking attendance .

Thank you Conor 👌👍 Either way you look at it, a club as big as we are we should most definitely have a bigger stadium, surely we must be able to fill it being a one city one club 👍👌 Should we expand or knock down & rebuild is another question 🤔 How do we modernise without losing the atmosphere & the character of the current stadium 😩😫🤔 We definitely haven't been able to use Jaidon Anthony more than we could have which is a real shame because he's a decent player 😩👍👌

Stadium needs full rebuild to keep us moving forward.

Interesting news about the stadium, agree that 50,000 would be a good capacity. My concerns with the 49ers is that they don't go down the stadium sponsorship route. An example of this model would be Leicester City changing its name to King Power Stadium. Jordan Anthony is a class player, I rate him highly and can understand how he hasn't be used when players are clearly tired and in need of a rest.

50 Thousand capacity is spot on at the moment.

leeds has the best kit. it is not close. cannot wait for new stuff

I tell you how we balance the books , the rules are going to change for next year so Leeds will have more spending power.

Surely we have to be in the Premier league first before choosing a number.

Leeds City Council need to come board,a tramline is a must.Road upgrades around ER,the council stated 20 years ago a 60,000 stadium ia a no go.Iwould a bigger ground more the better,but councils being councils will not allow us to do what we want

The best option would to build a one seater stadium and charge £1 million for every game. An Arab oil sheik would pay that. The cost of the stadium would be about £150 all in and you'd rake in £23 million per season on gate receipts alone. That would easily be the most profitable club in the world.

60,000 seater would be great, there is a huge waiting list.

50k would be the next expansion for me. With further improvements in years to come. Up to 60k+ in the longer run. Yes we need to be in the Prem to do it. It’s fine as we are, challenging for promotion in Championship, to go up to 50k, but if we became a middling Champ side we’d be on smaller crowds. The 49ers should see us right once we’re up, their experience should see us in a good place financially and team-wise.

Stadiums are long lead time projects. The sooner we get started the better.

I'm not a Leeds fan but your club has arguably the best opportunity in football. I know Elland Road is your home but be honest, the place is hopelessly outdated. You need to build a showpiece stadium. Make it look like nothing else. 65k capacity should be about right. The way football's going you'd fill it as long as the ticket prices aren't extortionate.

Cant see a capacity increase without prem football and if we dont go up this season we wont get back in a long time. With the players we will have to sell in the summer we wont be able to compete next season 🙈

A lot of peripheral fans are “fair weather supporters.” If we’re not in the Premiership and playing attractive football then only the hardcore fans can go watch dire football. There’s so much riding on us going up. Come on Leeds, 2 more wins!!! Let’s go.

Not long ago we could barely get 25,000 in. We need to stabilise in the prem before we start to expand the ground

Isn't money spent on stadia/training grounds etc. Seperate to hitting PSR with signings of players and players wages. I'm pretty sure that's how Everton are still going ahead with their stadium

50,000 until were back been an established premier League side again then expand by another 10,000 or so. Previously as when we were in the first established premier League clubs at over 40,000 we were in the top 6 or so in the size of the seating capacity obviously after relegation then years later having seats removed were not , I actually preferred how the ground was before the seat removal for boxes etc , so for me as soon as we're back start the stadium.

We easily fill a 50k ground regularly. I logged on at 12:30 for the 13:00 Southampton (member) sale. At 13:00 I was number 17,000 in the queue and I’ll bet not every member was logged on and that most of those logged on members were also buying for F&F. Tickets never get anywhere near going on general sale.

More capacity if standing allowed. Maybe 55k

55-60k possible 65k should be the capacity of Elland Road. They should start it this summer. It’s pointless leaving it for further down the line.

60'000. Leeds haven't even tapped into the Eastern market and I see loads of Chinese students wearing Leeds shirts. Using Sunderland as a comparison is redundant. Make it a 60'000 and charge less for tickets. It's a clear win win strategy that also creates more unity and good vibes.

Summerville is that good, he would be fine playing on the right when its time to bring on the subs

Needs to be 55K

We have 22k ST waiting list don't we? So minimum 55,000 in the prem IMO.

Focus must be on Premier League, then a stadium expansion after that.

50k is perfect ,should keep the tourist fans out

i think we should have a stadium with a capacity of 55k.

While they clean up the stadium can they clean up the roads and city. Council don't.

52,000

Don’t have to fill it week in week out - just need to sell the season tickets to those on the waiting list.

They'll probably start with 55k with expansion options in the future.

Ground expansion is good but seats must be close to the pitch and not like what West Ham did And obviously we must be established as a top flight side for it to work

It's been announced that Jimmy Savile's unclaimed fortune will be used to build Leeds a new stadium and it'll be called Savile Row.

Conner. Please stop being so arrogant. Your not the manager who actually has our best ever results. Just believe in Farke. He deserves our trust mate

It’s too completely different revenue streams… ones for the club and ones for a stadium. Yes, of course they could be interrelated, but it’s not like it’s one bucket of money. Billionaires have a way of moving money around taking out loans using other peoples money. It will be fine.

Yes the stadium needs expanding ' but we need a capacity no more than 50k I'd say more like stadium of light at Sunderland 47k we really don't do really big crowds ' look at our history crowd wise ' anything more than that would end up been a white elephant.

An bigger stadium would be used for allsorts of events bringing in money for the club

They will have done their homework but I think that 60 would be better. I imagine that they will build in the ability to expand again later. I trust them to get it right. Dan has not looked good for 2 games.

50,000 with the existing, not fit for purpose ticket software! I don’t think so 😅

Another 20k would be sensible!

It's all well and good expanding it but then they just net off the first couple of rows and any rows near the away fans. It's a joke.

65K

63k to top spurs would be nice

We'll fill 60,000 easy lad

60K

50k is a good number

Not Even Bielsa as a record in one season, never mind two. Please give Farke a chance too prove himself mate

Leeds United will play😂 home games at Hillsborough Stadium

Wembley of the north 90k 👍

look at Evertons new stadium 52 000 😮 leedsUnited are bigger and are worthy of a 61 000 stadium

Calgary calling Conor. 50000 is NOT big enough...go 60000...we will fill it plus corporate, reduce ticket prices a little too and make it the new Wembley of the North. The FA would use it for England, rugby, concerts...the demand is there, so go all in Leeds. I think Anthony is good and has been way under used. Now DJ is out...will he get minutes? Surprise package v QPR perhaps? That 60k should have the facility to further expand too, another 10,000....the demand is there so meet it Leeds and partner with Leeds City...get that tram built and regenerate the area...the future is bright, the future is white. MOT.

50k tp 60k

Rival the Azteca make it 100k

NFL raised the salary cap for this coming year indicating that NFL teams are still making money, hand over fist. Looked at another way, the Denver Broncos are willing to eat $98 million in dead cap money over the next two years to get rid of a player they traded multiple first round picks for. So for the 49ers to drop $50 million to expand Elland Road is a drop in the bucket for them. Better to strike while the iron is hot and they're flush with cash.

The egg came first...

55k at least

Anfield is the model to follow ... so it can be done in stages ... west stand extra tier behind existing seating... then the kop end... and ideally not affect existing seating during building. Farke wont use subs early because they havent played much because farke wont use early ......... Doesnt undertand the concept of fully using a squad and different players for different opposition

lot of talk about fees for players, ground expansion, etc See how it changes if we lose on Friday. !!!

I would rather them spend on developing the team rather than the ground. Once we get up, I want us to stabilise our position...THEN develop accommodations. I have no problem with James being used as a Sub while he's not on form, but Joseph is essential against QPR or we'll not go Auto. Bamford will be controlled by QPR. OMG mouth watering - Jaidon Anthony/Mateo Joseph on together!!! Happy to use Piroe as the water boy.

WTF is your club playing at? You have one of the biggest fanbases in the UK. Why the hell aren't investors pumping millions in and building you a state of the art 70k stadium?

Conor as brilliant as you are, I do wish you would slow down your speech pattern and breathe pal lol

Fruit shoot money 🤣🤣

No value vlog this one. Waffle FC.

Pull your head in. Leeds are in the Mickey Mouse comp!

It’s gotta be a balanced process if there expanding stadium we need players that can establish us in prem first then possibly expand after we reach that stage m o t 💛🤍💙

Newcastle are expanding..looking at between 60-70,000, Man U are looking at 90-100,000 rebuild or new, Man City are going up to over 60,000, Chelsea looking at new of 60,000 +, Everton’s brand new stadium is 53,000 with the potential to go to over 60,000. Tottenham is 63,000, Arsenal is 61,000…..Leeds should be looking at, at least 55 - 60,000, it’s as simple as that. We have to develop to attract big name players cos the stadium you play in, will help attract top names and development work is long overdue. We are the 4th largest city in the whole of the Uk by population and a one team city so we would fill that ground guaranteed.

I can't directly respond to comments because RU-vid hates me but in response to whether Leeds would fill a 90000 seater stadium, I say yeah definitely! If the club lowered the ticket prices significantly to maybe 10, 15 pound per ticket and if the club were actually playing well or in the Premier League there is no doubt in my mind our fanbase fills that stadium!
