Well as per normal service from the ticket office was non existing failing to answer my email query from nearly 2 weeks ago now.
In the end i got a second auto email regarding the crowdies which included both the reference numbers so id booked a slot for yesterday evening expecting to get some help from the ticket office attaining my original purchase email.
So I went down without said proof of purchase and thankfully came away me and my sons crowdie. They only checked I had confirmation of a booking slot. Very quick service - literally parked up and picked up in about 2 minutes. Excellent work Leeds on that part.
What is the crowdie - to some itβs just a piece of cardboard. To me itβs closest thing I could give to support the lads over the line. 15,000 must have been a decent view to run out to. A reminder that we were all there in spirit. Heβs more than a piece of cardboard. He is part of the halter that took us back. I was singing champions again ole ole in the car most of the way home. Brough back some wonderful memories that are easy to forget amidst the razzmatazz of the premier.
Iβm jealous of my crowdie mind - he saw us lift the trophy after all those hard long lean years. For now they sit in my window for those walking past to look at and most probably laugh at

You're fortunate to be able to go to the ticket office to collect.
Living in Northern Ireland I've no chance of retreiving mine and even i could would probably have to pay duty and tax to "import" into another part of the UK
Sums the world up that we are now jealous of a cardboard cutout

Wonder if Osama ever managed to get down to pick his up?
Alioski applauding the crowdies will always be one of my lasting memories of that promotion push.

That was my experience last week. Only took 5 minutes because i had to queue behind a couple of others. Only needed the booking email, not the original confirmation - so the email advising what you MUST have is slightly misleading.
I wonder if we can pick up crowdies for those unable to attend Earl?

And a lasting memory that all in all he gave his everything to Leeds United and to the supporters; always entertaining despite his weaknesses from time to time on the pitch.

VOF thanks but wouldn't be worth the bother.
Anyhow if you did get hold of it you would probably want to throw rotten tomatoes or use it to frighten children.
