Josh Warrington offers verdict on Jesse Marsch as he makes Leeds United fans plea

Boxer Josh Warrington has called on Leeds United supporters to 'stay positive and stick with Jesse Marsch' following recent frustrations. Marsch had been under increasing pressure at Elland Road after an eight-match winless run with fans voicing their discontent at both the American and the board.

The writing had appeared to be on the wall for Marsch at Leeds in the wake of a 3-2 home defeat to Fulham, but back-to-back wins over Liverpool and Bournemouth saw the pressure valve ease around the club. Leeds were then left frustrated, though, after letting slip a lead three times in their 4-3 loss at Spurs last weekend.

Marsch now has a number of weeks to work with his squad on the training pitch as Leeds do not return to action until December 28 against Man City. Speaking on Leeds' season so far, Warrington has noticed an element of toxicity creeping in at the club for the first time in 'four or five years,' and as such has urged the fans to unify and get behind Marsch.
