[2] Ross McCormack drastically improved his performance from the 2010–11 season by scoring 19 goals – the most in the squad.

He narrowly lost out on Player of the Year to Robert Snodgrass who was made Club Captain by Warnock following the sale of influential local skipper Jonny Howson in January.

[3] Young Player of the Year went to Tom Lees who led an injection of the youth into the side with Aidan White establishing himself in the starting line-up and debuts being handed to youngsters Zac Thompson, Charlie Taylor and keeper Alex 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 the Elland Road stadium[5] – a summer which saw a contrasting £0.7m spent on players' transfers and £5.2m received in player sales.
