What a prize f00kwit

I have to disagree with you on that. Prior to last season starting all clubs were issued with new guidelines on, among other things, sportsmanship and ethics. It was these new guidelines the EFL decided Leeds had broken. If I remember correctly, LUFC plead guilty to the charge or didn't contest the charge at any rate.

This isn't meant as red rag to a bull just to upset Leeds fans, merely an outlining of fact. Before anybody has a go at me for it, read my posts on this forum on the stupidity that occurred last Tuesday evening on the roads just outside Derby. I am in agreement with most of what has been written on this board over it.

You are completely wrong.

Those guidelines have absolutely nothing to do with our fine, in fact the EFL created new guidelines to prevent this from happening after our incident.
We "breached" rules about acting in good faith towards other clubs which is already a laughable entry in the book because of it being so vague. Norwich painting their dressing rooms to screw with their opponents or Derby County avoiding FFP problems with dodgy stadium deals is perfectly fine but if you dare to stand on a public footpath then god save you. If there are rules against it, fine, but apply it to everybody not just us.
Leeds didn't contest the charge because Bielsa pressed the club not to. He asked the club to accept the fine and he paid for it in full because he felt it was his responsibility.

Thanks for the info.

My first awareness of that incident was a report on the Derby Eveneing Telegraph website who had got the info from the police like they do with all incidents of which the police are made aware. Someone who lives opposite the training ground saw someone in the bushes (not on a footpath) and reported it to the police who went to the scene and found the LUFC employee in said bushes. The "story" did not originate from DCFC.

It’s mainly imo all about LUFC and the dog schitt manc & London press who most know have had a running battle with our club longer then I care to remember. These rags came up with the pathetic “spy gate”.........spying what a joke.

Going on week in, week out for years always have and always will, In my days and many on here it was called scouting, in the fantasy bushes, over the walls, sneaking in training sessions....in the stands. It’s a joke, but it sells the rags....mainly the ones I wipe my ass on!!
