Last time I went the away end was in the corner - it was the worst seating I have ever experienced (shocking knee room, shocking view). Here hoping you can stand for the whole game! Certainly not one of my favourites (and yes it can be pretty hostile too but in general I always found Leeds fans to be a pretty friendly bunch - but then again I follow Crewe!!)

If your in the corner then houghmartin is spot on, it's exactly the same in the home end corners.... for some reason our supporters club always seem to get tickets there!!

If you get a larger allocation you will be in the south stand behind the goal, the seating is better but not great if your taller than 5'10 or so....

The best seats in terms of view and leg room are in the west stand but this is only for home supporters.

Hope you enjoy the trip, it shouldn't be that bad in terms of hostility, not venture into the Peacock opposite though, if you want a drink your best bet is probably the town but that's several miles away!!
