Leeds United is experiencing a strong season in the Championship, aiming for a spot in the Premier League after a two-year hiatus. They have accumulated 75 points with ambitions of exceeding 100 points, possibly breaking a Championship record. Club chairman Paraag Marathe announced plans to increase Elland Road's capacity to 53,000, emphasizing the need to maintain its unique atmosphere. The stadium, historically significant and currently ranked 16th in Britain, has a capacity of 37,792 and seeks to enhance its legacy as a challenging venue for opposing teams.
"Our goal is to expand Elland Road. There will probably be a couple of phases that ultimately take us to 53,000. The best features, fun and footballing quizzes, straight to your inbox every week."
"Of paramount importance is to keep the cauldron and electricity of the stadium the same as it is today. Elland Road is a stadium managers and players of other clubs don't like playing at."
