Leeds unveil plan to raise £10m

NEW Leeds chairman Gerald Krasner is hoping to raise an immediate £10m after the club yesterday announced a cut-price season-ticket plan.

The deal is not unique as Bradford under former chairman Geoffrey Richmond, who has been acting as an advisor to the new Elland Road regime piloted a similar scheme almost four years ago.

On that occasion, 25-year season-tickets were put up for sale at £2,250, with the club virtually selling out of the 1,000 allocation and so raising more than £2m.
