The2011–12 season sawLeeds United competing in theChampionship (known as the npower Championship for sponsorship reasons) for a second successive season.

A turbulent February saw Reserve Team ManagerNeil Redfearn in charge of the team for four games with ManagerSimon Grayson relieved of his duties and replaced by veteran promotion specialistNeil Warnock.^[2]Ross McCormack drastically improved his performance from the2010–11 season by scoring 19 goals – the most in the squad. He narrowly lost out on Player of the Year toRobert Snodgrass who was made Club Captain by Warnock following the sale of influential local skipperJonny Howson in January.^[3] Young Player of the Year went toTom Lees who led an injection of the youth into the side withAidan White establishing himself in the starting line-up and debuts being handed to youngstersZac Thompson,Charlie Taylor and keeperAlex Cairns.

Off the field, the club's directors reported a healthy profit of £3.5m,^[4] but found themselves at war with some supporters following the controversial £7m summer renovation of theElland Road stadium^[5] – a summer which saw a contrasting £0.7m spent on players' transfers and £5.2m received in player sales. ChairmanKen Bates also came under scrutiny from fans following the departures of fans' favourite Howson and 2010–11 Player of the YearMax Gradel.^[6]
