Leeds United fans have hit back at Derby County manager Frank Lampard, after he was charged with improper conduct by the FA.

Leeds fans have taken with issue following the ‘spy-gate’ drama earlier in the season, where Lampard publicly criticised Marcelo Bielsa.

Lampard said that Bielsa had acted against English football culture, when he sent a Leeds scout to watch Derby’s training prior to their match.

However, Leeds supporters have now used those comments as a reason to criticise Lampard following his disciplinary warning.

Lampard and Bielsa could well face off again in the play offs.

Leeds currently occupy third place and Derby are in sixth, which means that the pair will meet in the promotion deciding fixtures, should things stay the same.

Leeds still have outside hopes of making it into the automatic promotion spots, but it will take a lot of results to go in their favour.

The Whites are next in action on Sunday against Aston Villa, while Derby take on Bristol City.
