For many teams fighting a relegation battle, fans can end up in a sense of apathy. Whilst Leeds United fans were hoping for much better than the difficult season they've had to endure, after securing a ninth placed finish in the league in their first season back after 16 years away, being apathetic is one thing Leeds fans could not be accused of.
Whilst the atmosphere at Elland Road dipped in the losses to Tottenham Hotpsur and Aston Villa, Leeds' home ground has been a cauldron of noise and has helped the team push on to some vital, points winning late goals. Whilst it might not have the same affect on the pitch, Leeds fans engagement with the club online has also proven impressive.
According this research shared by Samford University Professor, Darin White, Leeds are actually the most engaged fans with their club when it comes to social media. They top the engagement rate for both Twitter and Instagram.
