Sam Allardyce believes Leeds United fans 'deserve more' following the club's relegation and admits he understood their 'disapproval' during the dismal final-day defeat to Tottenham. The odds were against the Whites securing survival on Sunday, but their faint hopes were swiftly killed off as they fell to a 4-1 home defeat.
Harry Kane opened the scoring after just two minutes, while Pedro Porro doubled Tottenham's advantage two minutes after the restart. The Elland Road crowd did not shy away in expressing their frustration with the performance, and Allardyce was asked if he had a message for the supporters following his four-match spell in charge.
He told the No Tippy Tappy Football podcast: "Look, I understand the disapproval and I would have been surprised if they didn't show their disapproval after Sunday's performance with everybody. I think against Man City and against Newcastle, they were helping the team.
