Leeds United tease fans with mysterious statement ahead of AFC Bournemouth fixture as advice issued

Leeds United have teased supporters with a mysterious statement ahead of their clash with AFC Bournemouth.

For the first time this season, the Whites will be playing a home game at the traditional time of 3pm on a Saturday afternoon when they face the Cherries tomorrow (September 27).

There is already plenty of excitement with the fixture, with last week’s 3-1 away win at Wolverhampton Wanderers having lifted the mood in LS11.

Leeds have now upped the ante by outlining the plan for “two special announcements” to be made inside the ground.
