On sale. £50. Evidently limited next season depending on demand. Only one ticket per membership next season.
Big moneymaker for the club.
Just got mine
Gold Membership

Massive demand for tickets now, only a good thing for the club and they are right to take advantage of that. I don't really see it as milking the fans, more of a sensible ticketing policy. You can't expect to get tickets for a whole group on one membership when the demand is so high. Plus it increases risk of ticket touts and those jumping on the bandwagon, especially if Leeds go up.
Problem is the stadium is too small when Leeds are doing well. But then again a few years ago the top tier never used to be open. No one was complaining about memberships then.

I haven’t had an e-mail about renewing my membership. I got silver this season and I always buy a ticket for my hubby when we go to ER. He isn’t a footy fan so we don’t go to many games but he doesn’t mind going with me as I don’t want to go on my own. He most definitely won’t pay £50 for an extra membership though, so it looks like there’s no point my getting one either.. Very disappointed.

I can understand people getting upset but when you look at it from the clubs pont of view what else can they do?
We have 22,500 ST holders. They are guaranteed a seat. They will probably be allowed to buy at least one ticket extra. If they are allowed to buy first and they all do that then we sell out.
We have 23000 members. If they are paying £50 then they should be able to buy tickets at the same time as ST holders otherwise it’s pointless being a member.
I just hope the club have thought this through. I also hope they get shot of the south stand boxes and put more seats in. I guess they will wait until they know what league we are in before deciding on that one though.

You know I’m not sure I got a renewal offer last season. I just remember going online and buying it for this season.
Bd careful because they might put the cap on membership if they sell well.

All the club had to do was say due to anticipated high demand we are only offering Gold Membership take it or leave it and I would be fine with that but they havent.
They also are being inconsistent where emails are concerned. - I'm still waiting for original notification and apparently possibly 6 days for a reply to my question.
Looks like the onky sure fire thing at the moment is to go Gold!

Got to admit it but gone 'Gold' just to be absolutely certain, as present statements from club are as clear as mud.

Me too. I was seriously considering Platinum next season but have plunged for gold.
Maybe when we get clarification I might try and trade up.

It has been raised before, but this thread really highlights the need for Elland Road to be expanded.
Hopefully it can be done in an intelligent and piecemeal basis so as not to reduce its capacity significantly while doing the expansion.
Conversion of the South stand boxes as a first step and simultaneously converting the stand into a hybrid standing and sitting area might be a great idea.
I suggest the next step would be to do a remodel of half the west stand, the southern side, which would include the away section, thereby having the least impact on home fans. Yes, I know we will have to put away fans somewhere else, but this should have least impact as their attendance has been poor. May be very different in the Prem next season though.

"We have no information on whether platinum memberships will be on sale for season 2019/2020.
I would advise keeping an eye on website should this change.
With Gold membership you have the same benefits as the platinum but without LUTV.
You can purchase LUTV seperately.
I apolgise that no information is online."
Make of that what you will lads and lasses!

I'll probably stick with my Gold then.
