Stand heating, better lager, taller floodlights - The Elland Road changes Leeds United fans want to see

It is an exciting time for Leeds United. The club's centenary celebrations saw fans and former players bask in 100 years of Elland Road memories.

Mixed in with this was an announcement on the future of the club and expansion of it's famous stadium. Chief executive Angus Kinnear revealed proposals to increase the capacity of the stadium to 50,000 - the sort of headlines Leeds fans will love to hear.

While those improvements will take years to complete, we've asked fans what changes they would like to see at Elland Road, little and large.

Complaints around the beer on offer were common, along with some tongue-in-cheek comments too! Here is what you, the fans, told us via our dedicated Leeds United page on Facebook.

Paul Anthony LUFC Davies: "Heating under the stands. Can't believe in this day and age they can't put some heating blowers in."

Chris Brown: "Appoint an East Stand 'Sauce Manager' to ensure we have ketchup supplies in the East Stand for all games - essential. The disappointment of a poorly stocked ketchup station every week is very frequent."

Mark Jones: "The horrible stain on the cladding under the Leeds United sign... being an ex sign fitter."

Warren Brown: "Bring back the tall floodlights."

Matthew Lee: "Remove South Stand boxes and make North and South stands safe standing."

Neil Gary King: "At least another 10,000 seats - we will fill 'em. MOT."

Ken Lockwood: "Cheaper tickets... premier prices for Championship football?"

John Clucas Snr: "Cheaper tickets, increase capacity to 65,000 and put the price of a pint to £2.50."

Vickie Annakin: "Capacity and more parking."

Elaine Nicholson: "Make the disabled area bigger."

Alan Cammidge: "New South Stand."

Bob Finlay: "Better lager."

Bevan Mortimer: "Premiership football."

John Redmond: "Bulldozer should do the trick."

Tommy Kenny: Nothing, it's f**king perfect as it is!

Steve Moss: Redevelop the West, same size as the East
