Vinnie Jones has angered a lot of Leeds United fans this evening.
Vinnie Jones has driven a wedge between himself and Leeds United fans it seems.
Jones took to Twitter to celebrate Sheffield United’s 2-0 win over Ipswich Town this evening, a victory which takes them to the brink of automatic promotion to the Premier League.
When the Blades go up automatically it’ll be at the expense of Leeds, who are six points behind with two games to go, though the Whites’ goal difference is significantly inferior.
Jones spent a year at both Championship clubs and quite a few fans of the Elland Road side have slated the 54-year-old, a vocal supporter of Marcelo Bielsa’s side in recent weeks.
But Jones was quick to insist that he’d be cheering on Marcelo Bielsa’s side in tomorrow’s visit of Aston Villa nevertheless:
It seems effectively certain that Leeds will have to endure the anxiety of the playoffs in a couple weeks time, but a good win over the Villans – who have won their last 10 games – could be a big psychological scalp in the event that they face Dean Smith’s side again.
