Audible dissent from the Leeds United faithful was heard for the first time at Leicester City last week when the questions became too loud for Jesse Marsch to ignore. Losing so meekly to the Premier League’s then-worst side, after going winless in six, was too much to bear and the walls began to close in.
The withdrawal of Luis Sinisterra at King Power Stadium was questioned in a pointed way before Marcelo Bielsa’s name rang out in the latter stages. Marsch would only pour petrol on the skip fire by failing to acknowledge the thousands leaving Leicester after 10.15pm on a Thursday night.
Those travelling away from home will always represent the core fan base at any football club. Yes, you will have some with shorter trips than others, but generally, you’re looking at the thousands who trek from West Yorkshire to follow their team at any time in any weather for any expense.
