Leeds United are urging football fans of all clubs to join together in the fight for justice.
The club are appealing to supporters from every club across the country to add their names to an online Downing Street petition to Prime Minister Gordon Brown to request the removal of the 15-point sanction imposed by the Football League on the eve of the season.
The club has already been overwhelmed by the support of fans from all clubs – and over 27,000 have signed the online petition.
Leeds United Chairman Ken Bates said “The support is very encouraging. People are beginning to realise that this isn’t about Leeds United and that it could be us next”.
"We already have Luton and Bournemouth in administration, who could have similar problems in placating the revenue, Rotherham are suggesting they’re going to go into administration, and others are in very similar situations. Who could be next?"
"This isn’t about Leeds United – it’s about justice and fair play. We’re hoping all fair-minded fans of whichever club they support will sign up. Every one helps because this is a matter of principle".
