    If you did it against the Toon you’d get duped.

    Apparently, Joselu, Manquillo and Perez are world beaters in training...

    EFL have given Leeds (Bielsa) until Tuesday for our observations on what was done.
    Bielsa ‘I sent a man to watch them train to gather information on the opposition because it isn’t against your rules’
    EFL lawyer ‘Thank you Mr. Bielsa, that will be all <laugh>

    Don’t think Leeds will be punished. Bielsa will likely get a fine for bringing the game into disrepute. No big deal.

    You have to admire his attention to detail which is somewhat obsessive/compulsive. People with these tendencies can be challenging to work with, and create tense overwork environments. I think his ability to manage his self confessed anxiety will define his brilliance.

    Good luck for the rest of the season.

    I believe in fairness and Bielsa is only doing his job getting as much information about the opposition as possible.......That is a good sign of commitment to the club....Good on him that if he gets punished for that then the powers that be are making a mockery out of football and should quit.....Lampard should know better....

    Dirty Leeds
    Town,
    people
    club.

    and people saying they've done nothing wrong, no sport bother writiing laws that are already criminal offences, such as breaking and entering, which is what Leeds have done, they didn't walk in through a door or gate, they cut holes in the perimeter fences and broke in.

    No punishment. It's all a bit of a storm in a teacup.

    what should happen? nothing
    what likely will happen? probably some sort of fine and/or ban for bielsa
    what will happen? noone knows because the FL makes things up, as im sure your fans can remember when you got whacked with that 15 point deduction 10 years back.

    Will continue to keep an eye on both Bielsa and Clarke though :emoticon-0143-smirk

    Are you selectively ignorant in matters Leeds United or with respect to the world around you as a whole?

    Yes, he didn’t go through a gate or a hole as he stood on a public road. <doh>

    Not a Leeds fan, but I admire Bielsa’s tenacity & diligence.

    Quite a few English coaches could learn from him.
