Our Leeds fans here in the Transfer Tavern have not had the best few days with nearly everything going wrong surrounding their club.
Indeed, after seeing their side lose against Reading at the weekend, they had to take in another defeat last night against Brentford.
And, during the former game, Liam Cooper stamped on Reece Oxford – something that has come back to haunt the defender today.
That’s because he’s been handed a six game ban which will end his regular season and so he’ll only have the chance to feature now if the Whites do make the play-offs.
Naturally, then, Leeds fans have reacted to this news on Twitter and so here is the best of the reaction:
#LUFC defender Liam Cooper will serve a six-match suspension. Read the FA statement at https://t.co/B3AgrpI3Itpic.twitter.com/r0zkg4jGPr
