Leeds’ fans target Elland Road

LEEDS supporters are planning to raise £10million in an audacious bid to buy Elland Road.

Fears the ground could fall into the wrong hands under plans being devised by the new Leeds board, have prompted the fans to come up with their proposal.

The supporters’ scheme would see Elland Road held by a limited liability partnership, with the fans as owners and the football club as occupiers paying rent, ensuring football remains at the stadium for as long as there is a Leeds United.
