Something i've noticed online from Leeds fans is a claim that they have "huge global support". Whenever the topic comes up about how big they are they often claim to have loads of support worldwide. Apparently you "see Leeds fans everywhere" around the world.
In my experience of visiting different places around the world I haven't seen any evidence of this. In places like Spain you may see a few Leeds shirts but they're one of those fanbases who like to wear their shirts more than others, like Newcastle. Further afield you see the Sky 6 shirts frequently due to them being relevant in the PL era recently. Chelsea, Arsenal etc.
I don't know how they can prove such global support so the only slight indication of global popularity that can be proven would be social media. And Leeds have less followers on Instagram than Wrexham.
