    Gutted for you missing out Heidi, I don't get this moaning about so called super fans thinking they should be privileged. Anyone with a bit of human decency should imo accept what you and others have given over the years to this club and tickets should have been given on a loyalty basis, fans that have stuck with us home and away through the many lean years too.

    Some people like cars, some like clothes, some like books or films or going abroad on holiday. Fans like Heidiare committed to family and Football club. I have to take my hat off to fans like Heidi and they do deserve a little bit more in my view

    Some don't commit to anything other than Leeds, I was talking to one fella in Germany on a pre season tour, he had 2 divorces behind him because Leeds came first, he missed his daughters wedding telling me" I told her not to book it on a weekend during the season but I did make it back about 8pm for the evening reception"

    I'm gutted for you too, @FollowMe&LeedsUnited . I didn't get a ticket either :(

    So much for an unbroken sequence of 25-ish years of having a season ticket. Through all the downs & occasional ups.

    And yet there will be people buying their first ever season ticket attending the match.

    My anger is tempered by the fact that our owner has done an awful lot more good than bad, but like the new badge, they've not thought this through properly. It should have been simple to put together an algorithm to reward loyalty shown, both home & away.

    Sorry to hear and yes loyalty should have been taken into account. There may still be another ballot after the claiming of tickets so you never know.

    I probably knew who it was at one point but at the moment can't remember who.

    Thank you and at least my point was understood on here. I've already had someone saying I was begging for Leeds to change their mind and give me a ticket which wasn't the intention. Someone needs to have a voice for those fans who feel they are being let down so I will always stand up for things I believe in.

    Any luck? Sadly I’ve missed out again but glad to see some who never miss a game home, away, friendlies or abroad have been successful this time which they fully deserve
