Leeds United have now won four matches in a row to move up to 12th in the Championship table.

Leeds United's manager Garry Monk

Garry Monk has told TV Yorkshire that Leeds United supporters are beginning to understand that everyone at Elland Road needs to be pulling in the same direction.

The atmosphere at Leeds was much more positive yesterday, as Monk’s side picked up their fourth victory in succession.

The Whites managed to triumph 1-0 over Ipswich Town, thanks to a Chris Wood strike.

And Monk said: “I think they’re understanding now, what I was saying at the start of the season, that we can only do it together.

“The bits when we face the negative and the difficult moments in games, they have to come even stronger. I think they are understanding that, and putting that into the players.”

Elland Road has always been an intimidating venue for away teams to visit, but in recent times there has been discontent in the stands.

Leeds have disappointed on and off the field for a number of years, but they are showing signs of promise under Monk’s leadership.

The Yorkshire side have looked impressive over recent times, and they have begun to climb up the Championship standings.

Leeds are now in 12th place in the second tier, with their next match coming against Bristol City on Tuesday evening.
