Newcastle supporters trust demand Leeds take urgent action after crushing in the away end of their Premier League match at Elland Road 'that could have resulted in serious injury or worse'

Newcastle's supporters trust has called for Leeds United to take urgent action after the crushing that could have led to ‘serious injury or worse’ at Elland Road on Saturday.

Hundreds of visiting fans have taken to social media to reveal their horror at the situation outside and inside the away end, during which it is claimed turnstiles failed and only the belated opening of an exit door prevented the suffering of serious injury.

Leeds have confirmed they will be reviewing safety measures and working with West Yorkshire Police following the issues raised by the Newcastle United Supporters Trust.
