The Leeds United striker was once rejected by Huddersfield Town.

Leeds United's Ryan Edmondson in action during the Pre-season Friendly match between York City and Leeds United on July 10, 2019 in York, England.

The Leeds United striker, Ryan Edmondson, taunted what a appears to be a Huddersfield-supporting friend on Twitter earlier.

Edmondson, who signed for Leeds via York two years ago, was rejected by Huddersfield as a youth, according to City’s official website.

And now, as a Whites player, he has even more reason to revel in the Terriers’ misery.

.

The Huddersfield fan in question tweeted the following before his side’s Championship opener against Derby County on Monday: “Up the ******* town boys and girls”.

But with the newly-relegated side trailing 2-0 early on, Edmondson replied:

Huddersfield scored a consolation through Karlan Grant shortly after, but failed to find an equaliser.

And those of a Terriers persuasion will not want to look at the early Championship table, which has their side sitting in 16th place and Leeds joint-top – alongside another of their Yorkshire rivals, Sheffield Wednesday – on goal difference.

Huddersfield or Leeds? Who will finish higher this season?
