Leeds United fans on Twitter are gleefully trolling Garry Monk over Birmingham City’s point deduction.
They say that time is a great healer, but it looks like Leeds United fans still haven’t forgiven Garry Monk.
Leeds were rocked when Monk suddenly quit the club in the summer of 2017, before being hired by Middlesbrough a number of weeks later.
Walking out on the Whites was bad enough in their view, but then joining a Championship rival meant that the 40-year-old would always be remembered rather negatively by fans of the Elland Road club.
With that in mind, you can forgive United fans if they weren’t too upset over the big news about Monk’s current team Birmingham City.
The Blues have been hit with a nine-point deduction for breaching Financial Fair Play rules and suffice to say that Leeds supporters aren’t exactly sympathetic.
There’s something about this time of the year that isn’t too kind for Monk.
At this stage of the season two years ago, Leeds had an eight-point cushion in the playoff places, but they would win just one of their last eight Championship games in a disastrous run of form which saw them finish outside the top six.
Monk’s City side were 13th and seven points behind the top six prior to Friday’s sanction, but now they sit 18th and only five clear of the relegation zone.
