[...] But Yeovil listened to police advice didn’t they? They changed the date and reduced the allocation to Leeds fans – and what happened – Leeds fans did what was necessary to attend this game. Any Police force in the country could have told Somerset & Avon Police that would happen – their “football intelligence officer” should be fired. The fans that “infiltrated” (oh, how exciting!) the home stands were Leeds fans based in Somerset and its surrounding counties – see the comments to our previous story. [...]

Re Bristol Rovers – thanks for the correction – that’s the beauty of the internet -the truth will always come out! I have no wish to denigrate Bristol Rovers and thanks for the good wishes re the points/playoffs.

Agree with your sentiments and Leeds are my second club – if you can have a second club – but need to correct you re Bristol Rovers. The police changed the date because they couldn’t man our match and the St Pauls festival on the same day. Pathetoic ,maybe but the latter was only 2 to 3 miles from the ground. Without the latter I am sure we would have played on the Saturday.
Good luck with the points/playoffs.

Good article. Maybe the fact that there was no trouble form Leeds supporters is whta has sparked the somerset media to write articles about it. I mean they were clearly expecting pitch battles in the Yeovil streets lol. Anywho, it’s what we already know as Leeds supporters and news to the rest of the world.
