Leeds United loanee Tyler Denton was shown a second yellow card for fouling Mallik Wilks.
Plenty of Leeds fans could not help but laugh on Twitter when they saw that Tyler Denton had been sent off for fouling fellow Whites loanee Mallik Wilks when they met in League One on Saturday.
Denton and Wilks are just two of the youngsters looking to catch Leeds’ eye while away on loan this season, and they are both plying their trade in the division below, with Denton at Peterborough and Wilks making waves at Doncaster.
Denton’s spell with Posh has not exactly gone to plan. But he was handed a rare start for the game against Donny at the weekend, and that presented him with the task of trying to mark Wilks out of the game.
Unfortunately for the left-back, his afternoon ended prematurely as he picked up two yellow cards in the first-half, including a second caution for a foul on Wilks on the stroke of half-time.
The news that Denton had been sent off for a foul on Wilks did not escape the attention of the Leeds supporters on social media – and many saw the funny side of the situation.
Several have suggested that it is typical Leeds to have two teammates clash in such a way, while one joked that the situation will lead to an investigation from the EFL with many Leeds supporters fed up as the fallout over Spygate continues.
