LUSN supports a new initiative to form a Leeds United Supporters Branch in West London.
There are no formal travel arrangements for like-minded Leeds United fans in West London other than using the expensive rail network. London is surrounded by other groups, such as the Surrey Whites to the South of the Capital, Invicta Whites out towards the East in Kent, Chiltern Whites in the Northern Home Counties and the Thames Valley Whites out towards the West in Berkshire and Oxfordshire.
A group of fans regularly travelling with the Thames Valley Whites, regarded as one of the most prominent Supporter groups outside of Yorkshire, have now decided to explore the possibility of running their own transport from West London.
London is a hotbed for Leeds United fans and one of the few places where organized travel to home and away fixtures are unavailable. With train fares now at a record high and timetables that rarely suit Leeds Supporters returning back to the capital after evening games, organized transport at competitive prices would be welcomed.
Thames Valley has had a lot of enquiries for membership from the West London region over the years. Along with some of its members, it has been decided to form a group that can provide affordable, reliable and regular transport to matches.
One of the advantages of organized travel groups such as those within the LUSN is travelling together with like-minded Leeds United supporters. Those long trips up and down the country together and sharing the ups and downs of following the club become much more enjoyable. This is where lifelong friendships begin with a kindled love of Leeds United.
The new branch will be supported by Thames Valley Whites, who will lend a hand running the transport and share their expertise while the group gets up and running.
Planned pick-up points will be at locations that Supporters can get to with specific locations such as train and tube stations and places where parking will be available.
West London Whites have purchased the domain www.westlondonwhites.com the site is currently in the process of being built until the site is being built please contact using admin@westlondonwhites.com.
Leeds United supporters who wish to regularly travel to Elland Road and away fixtures are advised to register their interest by sending email to admin@westlondonwhites.com.
West London Whites are looking at running transportation to every home game next season but also based upon demand transport for the Brighton & Leicester City home games this season. Pickup points provisionally Weighbridge J10, Uxbridge J16 and Watford J19 actual pickup points to be determined but will be close to M25 intersection with easy access car and public transport with hopefully free parking.
Please note the group, as other groups will not be able to supply match tickets, and these will have to be obtained by the usual routes through the official Leeds United ticket website or in possession of a season ticket.
