14% increase if they are not renewed by March in a recession are you real Bates! I know of at least ten season ticket holders not renewing and are sending the forms back with a letter, fans who have been season ticket holders for 30 years are now turning their backs on Leeds, well done Mr Bates if we don't get promoted this year you are looking at sub 18,000 crowds when your current break even figure is 25,000. Current average about 23,000. So we already have the 5th highest Season ticket prices counting the Premiership where will this place us top 3? And to top this off here is some info I pinched off another board relating to what has been spent on transfers an interesting read this one SEE BELOW.
