Hang on ! Hold your horses. Paul said us season ticket holders should shut up cos we were 'happy to pay at the time' - get f'cked were we happy. Why did we do it ? Because we are Leeds, because we are stupid, because we have been doing it for 25 years ..... who knows we just did it - you can't explain football sometimes you just do it, BUT we are certainly not happy about paying £500+ quid for championship football. So when Bates decides to lower the prices for what will be the the 3rd game running for the part-timers then we are entitled to get pissed off.
