Adam Forshaw has revealed Leeds United players used to hide cake in the dressing room after the football tradition was banned under Marcelo Bielsa. As is tradition in dressing rooms up and down the county, players bring in a selection of cakes for their birthday to share with their team-mates.
However, the Argentinian head coach is known for his meticulous preparations both on and off the field. The former Whites head coach banned the tradition, but that didn't stop players secretly indulging in some birthday cake from time to time.
Speaking to the Football Daily podcast, Forshaw said: "No it's a football thing and you're normally judged on it so it becomes a bit of a competition on how big you can go with it. I think standard is like Krispy Kreme's and stuff like that.
