Some Leeds United fans on social media have been reacting after the club received a £20,000 fine for failing to control their players against Chelsea.
What are Leeds being fined for?
In typical fashion, Leeds against Chelsea was a fiery affair, and a controversial last-minute penalty led to a bit of handbags after the game.
Indeed, tempers flared and tensions boiled over after the final whistle and something of a brawl broke out between the two teams.
It’s the type of thing the FA don’t take too kindly to, and Leeds have been fined for their lack of discipline in this instance.
Fair fine?
Leeds fans aren’t best pleased about this fine, and to be honest, we can understand why.
Yes, Leeds’ players did get embroiled in a bit of a scuffle against Chelsea, but let’s not forget that the Blues weren’t innocent in all of this.
Antonio Rudiger was one of the main aggravators here and perhaps it would have been fairer if both clubs were fined.
Fan reaction
Inevitably, Leeds fans weren’t happy about this sanction.
Leeds supporters are somewhat famed for their disdain for the FA and authority figures in general. Even to this day you hear chants about the infamous 1975 European Cup final at Elland Road, while United supporters made their feelings about the EFL known on pretty much a weekly basis during their time in the Championship.
