Lew-T Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Surprising really that this sort of thing has only come out now. Leeds haven’t broken any rules, they’ve just gone the extra mile to gain any sort of advantage. It may not be gentleman like, but I suppose nothing is any more.

Davefevs Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Personally I think it’s wrong. Do we just believe everything Bielsa says? Is he saying all that he us to avoid a thorough investigation? I hope someone is actually checking the rules or code of ethics etc rather than taking his word for it. This is not Leeds-ist, they have gained an unfair advantage, whatever Bielsa says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 I find myself totally ambivalent to this. There are many more important issues regarding the state of modern football to feel righteous indignation about than watching the odd training session of opponents.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 This is hilarious, 2 words I would never use to describe Leeds. An official statement from Leeds United on Saturday read: "Following comments made by Marcelo Bielsa yesterday (Friday) the club will look to work with our head coach and his staff to remind them of the integrity and honesty which are the foundations that Leeds United is built on.

spudski Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 I bet it goes on all the time...even Clubs paying for insider info. With Drones it's a lot easier...and it's as little as 50 million to put a satellite in orbit...wonder if any of the bigger clubs have invested in doing this. It makes you think.

Of course it does, I am amazed that the police saw fit to even attend this as a call, considering you don't see a copper when your house gets broken into these days and that is a real crime. I really don't know what all the fuss is about, Lampard saying it never happened at Chelsea, this is a team who employed Mourinho twice as it's manager.

Same at Derby but the guy was stood on the edge of a footpath by some bushes. All he had to do was wear a Derby top. Nobody would have given him a second glance. It was mentioned earlier that the Leeds scout had crawled through bushes and was using binoculars hiding in a Bush. This is why Derby took the step to call the police Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland-sweden Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Bielsa have taken Leeds to the top of the leauge with almost the same team as last season, very good manager.
