    Marcelo Bielsa has admitted Leeds United have spied on all their opponents this season but remains adamant no specific rules were broken and believes he is guilty of stupidity rather than cheating.

    “I observed all the rivals we played against and watched the training sessions of all opponents,” said the Leeds manager in the course of an extraordinary, unscheduled, press conference cum coaching masterclass at the club’s training headquarters near Wetherby.
    “So why did I send someone to watch them? Just because I thought I wasn’t violating the norm

    In what way? It's only cheating if you break the rules.

    Leeds fans in uproar on social media, the EFL are deliberately picking on them apparently :joy::joy:.Can't wait to see them get stuffed in the playoffs.

    Well done the FA they need to follow this up with TV evidence maybe the players would stop their play acting in many cases, the referees job is hard enough.

    Same s**t every time something goes against them, and we all know the FA dislike us more :).



    Have a listen to Wilder 3 minutes 15 into this clip what he says about Leeds and Bamford, certainly no love lost there.

    I watched that the other day, the bloke is a brilliant manager. They've earned their place in the premiership, Leeds on the other hand.

    Those games in the Championship play off should be quite tasty a re-run of Sundays game won't be for the faint hearted.

    Some want a Leeds Villa final, naaah never wished for Leeds to win a game and never would unless it benefited us somehow.

    Bamford and Jansson are total tw@ts, but it sums this club up they've always had players that are pr*cks.

    wrt the "spying", no rules broken, not sure how it ended up in a 200K fine. How is it different to watching or scouting a game? Best thing to do is make sure nobody without accreditation is allowed onto training ground property. As a couple have mentioned, Bielsa has shown a bit of class recently, didn't try to pretend the "spying" never happened, the walk in" goal on Sunday. Far too good for Leeds is that fella.
