From the official Leeds site, Our final League One away game of the season is at Charlton Athletic on Saturday May 1 (3pm) and below is the planned distribution policy for this game.
We will receive an allocation of approximately 3000 tickets for our visit to The Valley. After deducting the allocation for Away Season Ticket holders, the balance of tickets available will be 2550.
If we need to win to gain automatic promotion i was wondering if your ground is big enough to house the extra 10 to 15,000 extra Leeds fans who will travel down as they did at Bournemouth, i would hope they have the good sense to televise it if thats the case.

i've already got this fixture down as the day we draw/beat you to send millwall up and i will commit hari kari
Sky can do things last minute, and will.
No, you won't be given extra seats.
If we are still in the hunt then we might well sell a lot of the home seats regardless.
have we? thought every play off game is to be televised?
Sorry, I meant we'd had our full quota of league games - I presume the playoffs are not covered by this rule so they could be televised.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but doesn't that mean we'd end up getting more TV money than other clubs, which isn't fair? Is it not split equally between all the clubs in League 1?
Clubs can have a maximum of three home league games shown on Sky in the regular season.
Charlton have so far had two - v Brentford and Leyton Orient - so one more is possible. No idea when Sky would have to inform the club.
Play-off matches do not count under these commercial rules, they only apply to the regular season.

Dirty Leeds fans got a bit excited and smashed the granny out of the town. They are the reason no away games at seaside resorts when there is also a bank holiday.
You'll be out of the top 6 by then, so although you will sell your allocation early doors, there won't be a mass invasion by the rest.

That is a possibility but one i doubt very much and as i said after the Norwhich performance i am quietly confident, though must admit we have been shocking the last couple of months and even resorting to your tactics of booing the team off at half and full time LOL.
And so have Newcastle!
Oh, by the way, there's a pier at Greenwich if you want to relive the "glory" days of Bournemouth. Not much of one mind you, and it's a bit of a walk from the ground, but I'm sure your splendid fans wouldn't let something like that spoil a good rampage.

No the South and East stands would be fine and as i said if we can be promoted on that day we would fill 18,000 seats no problem so why the sarcastic comment? I agree that we are not a big club on the football front just a 3rd division side the same as you but don't underestimate Leeds regarding the fan base that we have.
Been to plenty of Leeds games in the Prem, no trouble.
