Wheels are in motion on a renewed bid by supporters to protect Elland Road’s future. Leeds United Supporters’ Trust has applied to Leeds City Council for Leeds United’s stadium to once again be considered an asset of community value.
The fan group had previously been successful in securing that status for the ground in October 2017. However, the protection which comes with being a community asset expired last October, five years after the original application was ratified.
Yesterday, the council told LeedsLive about the expired notice, but today confirmed a fresh application had gone in. LUST has been putting together its application for the past few months and finally submitted the bid last night.
