That is what his post suggests but, with respect, I think he's got it wrong and is overcomplicating it. It appears to me we charged them a reasonable price and messed up by not making it reciprocal. Very poor show if that's the case

There must be something else in the agreement. I think we get a cut of ticket sales to away games when bought at Red & White office. Maybe Leeds wanted a larger cut.

We do add £2 for on the day sales but rarely we offer that to away fans in Championship as they tend to sell out.

Preston have agreement and are being charged £28 at Elland Rd.

Bristol are at Preston next and are being charged £28 too, so dont think that the prices have to be reduced as part of the reciprocal agreement, but their must be something else in the agreement that benefits Leeds, as I doubt any other team is going to charge Leeds fans more than £45.

Leeds will be missing out on money because at a standard price we'll sell out but at 45 pound they'll be no more than 500 so it's stupid on their behalf.

I’d want paying more than that to go to Leeds.

The efl rules are very difficult to navigate. But:
If we were not allowed to charge Leeds fans more than the usual price for the South stand i. e £27 we could not really say to them "we'll charge you £27 if you do the same" they would say "why should we? You can't charge more thsn that anyway - what's in it for us?"
So - we would presumably have had to drop the price below that to get a deal. In which case I bow to flourbashers superior knowledge. He would be right and I was wrong to doubt him. Profuse apologies. I notice that Huddersfield only dropped their away price from £25 to £20 and Leeds from £45 to £20. So could we have dropped our away price to £20 and get the same deal?
Was there even a discussion?
I note Coventry rejected an agreement because they didn't want to charge away fans less than home fans
