The international break is nearly over and, for Leeds United supporters, that means a long two-week wait to see the side back in action is coming to a close. Daniel Farke's side had been picking up some real momentum before the Championship pause and Whites fans will be hoping to pick up where they left off after three wins in their last four fixtures.
The second tier returns this weekend but Leeds United supporters will have to wait another week to return to the hallowed Elland Road when Huddersfield come calling on October 28. In the meantime, many will no doubt be reflecting on happy memories around the ground and the Yorkshire Evening Post reminisces by looking at 12 matchday acts many fans have done.
1. Walk under the Lowfields Road underpass
There’s nothing like the walk to Elland Road on matchday and passing under the Lowfields Road underpass is when the excitement rises another notch.
2. Graveley’s
The fish and chips at Graveley’s are some top tier grub and the perfect pre-match nerve settler.
3. ... and embraced the queue
Part of the Graveley’s experience is enduring the matchday queue of eager Leeds United fans outside.
4. Elland Road Cafe & Sandwich Bar
Right next to Graveley’s, the Elland Road Cafe and Sandwich Bar is another hugely popular pit stop where many Whites fans have visited during their trips to Elland Road.
5. The Old Peacock
Necking the dregs of your final pre-match pint and speed walking across the road and into Elland Road for kick-off is a rite of passage for many.
6. Go to YOUR programme seller
The popularity of the matchday programme is not what it used to be but many fans make sure to stop at the same stall to pick up a copy every match.
