I have to say that I thought the dressing room was all milk & cookies this season. Certainly going by the group hugs all season, you couldn't blame me for thinking that. And who knows, I might be right anyway. However, this OP popped up on FB tonight: Not my story so don't shoot messenger but talk sport saying two.Leeds players had to.be separated at HT in.play off 2nd leg not surprised to hear it but Who berardi is my guess of one although take your pick.who wanna have a go at Casilla though A one-off was my first thought, & I suspected Coops & Casilla. Until I tried to think it through. Don't know about Casilla, but have always had the impression that Cooper is an even-tempered kind of guy. So who could it have been? A number of suggestions were put forward in the thread, including Berra, Ayling & Pontus. Again, I was still thinking 'one-off'. 'Happens'. And then this post popped up: Well it definitely happened at HT against Wigan which is why Philips was on bench for second half (why has no one else questioned why our best player was unusually subbed!) and at Brentford. He had a bust up in the tunnel with Tyler Roberts and I am certain that wobbled the camp over Easter!!! And this: not doubting btw but Nixon been saying things not been happy for few months now so not surprised tbh And this, for balance: I had a friend sat in the west stand above Bielsa and the reason Phillips came off at half time is this. After Wigan went down to 10 men Bielsa and Corcoran were vigorously signalling to Phillips to push further forward since Wigan weren't going to attack much. Phillips didn't push up and as punishment subbed for someone who would. And didn't play v Brentford too Now all of this could be a lot of nonsense, but for the reference to Alan Nixon of The Sun. That alone has convinced me that something's been going on behind the scenes. Nixon's a pretty reliable, non-sensationalist guy. One of the old guard. And a fellow Jags supporter, which trumps everything else. When you add all this to the current story doing the rounds about Pontus falling out with Bielsa - although I read an identical story saying it was Radz - you begin to wonder if there's some substance to all of this. Then you wonder if it has anything to do with our fall from grace since the turn of the year. I have no idea, but I'm all ears .... Anyone heard anything similar to this?

Dunno at this stage, Este. If it was anyone else but Nixon (or Hay or Pope), I'd prolly ignore it. And the thread has input from a few contributors who support the notion. For anyone who wants to follow the thread, the FB group is the Leeds United Supporters Group, and the thread was kicked off about 4pm on Saturday night (25/5) by a Nick Connor.
Likely usual start of slurs on players before they’re sold. Followed by the usual they were troublemakers and better off without choruses from the fans
When you watch Phillips on the pitch, you never see him shouting or looking disgusted at any of his team mates, he doesn’t look the sort of player to get involved, even when Bamford took the dive he wasn’t getting stuck in. My guess (if this happened) would be Klich as one possibility, he certainly has a temper and the only thing that could have upset anyone was the manner in which we conceded so the other would have to be Cooper or Casilla? Thinking about it though, surely Captain Cooper and Casilla would be the obvious choice, it would have to have started with an argument in regards to finger pointing and blame and the mix up between the two was the only negative of the half
you guys will look for any excuse truth is you were not fooking good enough im with you Shaks I have no food in fridge but a few sherberts
I find it astonishing that Jansson (who we know lets say wears his heart on his sleeve) was benched in the second leg play off. Its obvious that he and Biesla have had friction, perhaps Jansson shot his mouth of at half time saying that would not have happened if I was playing?
