Haven't Leeds made Elland Road smaller in recent years as well?

Capacity is 37890 since 2011.

In March 2011, the East Stand Development began phase one of a five-phase redevelopment project which included an extension to the East Stand Upper's main concourse along with the addition of 25 executive boxes and a modern upgrade to the external appearance of the stand; whilst this created extra corporate facilities and more room on the concourse, it in-turn reduced the East Stand Upper's capacity by around 2,500 seats, thus leaving the overall capacity of the ground to stand at just under 38,000 seats

Tinpot league

They've been a basket case for a while, would be a shame to see them go out of business, twice FA Cup winners, but alas that's the way it's going to go in England with the crazy money being spent.   I wonder how many more are on the brink.

Will also be interesting to see how Bolton go, its never nice to see a club die (well except one) so will see how their season goes.

Apparently the Bury owner didn't realise exactly how badly in debt they were. That says it all. Taken over by a guy that can't even do his due diligence into a known basket case club properly.  He was a fit and proper person to buy it though. 🙄

The thing is he never even bothered going through the fit and proper person test. He just bought the club from the previous owner without telling anyone and the FA can't do anything to him. They can punish the club but he probably wouldn't care.

How come Peacock-Farrell doesn't play now? Thought he was quite decent.

Is it because he sounds too posh to be a footballer?

Transferred to Burnley last week for an undisclosed fee.

Also Roofe away to Anderlecht for £7m so we need a back up keeper and a new striker before 5pm Thursday.
