Leeds United’s players have released a statement in response to Sunday’s 4-1 defeat to Bournemouth and the social media backlash they have received due to a viral video. The Whites took another huge step towards relegation over the weekend, with the heavy loss on the south coast being their fourth in the last five games at such a crucial point of the season.
However, the squad has received a lot of criticism after a video surfaced on social media of them leaving their hotel on Sunday morning. The clip showed a handful of players failing to acknowledge a young Leeds fan, who had seemingly travelled with his family to see the players board the bus to Dean Court.
The players have chosen to release a statement to address such behaviour and their miserable performance on the south coast.
