Leeds United have just won the Championship – and now they’ve just won the non-existent award for best banter.

The Whites have one of the best social media administrators around in Craig Wilson and he’s just proven it.

Leeds visit Derby County this afternoon in their penultimate Championship game of the season, having already won the division and secured promotion to the Premier League after a 16-year absence.

The Elland Road club was fined £200,000 last season when head coach Marcelo Bielsa instructed somebody to observe a Derby training session, when they were under Frank Lampard.

It has since been labelled as ‘Spygate’ and Wilson has stoked the fires ahead of this afternoon with a superb reference.

Leeds posted footage of Pride Park on their Twitter account, but through the lense of binoculars.

It’s s**thousery at its finest and Chris Sutton – and neutral fans – saw the funny side.

Derby fans won’t see the funny side because it’s still a sensitive subject among those affiliated with the Rams.

There’s so much to look forward to for Leeds next season, but especially the Chelsea games as it’ll see Bielsa renew his rivalry with Lampard.
