Really don’t have an issue with this and I don’t like Leeds. If they had broken into the other teams training ground, then yes that is wrong, but they didnt and this will have been going on, ever since I started to watch football. Forget all this ethical ######## the majority of tens will have done something similar at some point. Did Cardiff setting off alarms in our hotel before the Play Offs get this media coverage, no and that to me waa a lot worse than Bielsa.
is it in the league laws about this,if not he done nothing wrong.plenty others must do similar but not been found out.
This seems to be the big debate. Did Leeds actually do anything that contravenes a Football League regulation? Or is the onus fully in the club to secure their training sessions against this type of thing?
At very least I feel it's unsportsmanlike behaviour from Leeds, and I hope something is done to make it clear that cheating of any kind won't be tolerated in the English game!
But the manager has admitted doing it in every game mate. Much bigger argument here than just last night's game!
if that's the case then they need more than just 3 points deducted! i don't agree with bending them over a barrel and demoting them or whatever but maybe something that they'll learn from like a 10pt deduction or something. something that'd hit them hard without completely derailing their season as they've still had to be good enough to beat teams etc but the FA need to do something that sends a message to bielsa and to any other team that thinks about employing similar shadey tactics to gain an advantage. it's bloody disgraceful what bielsa has done and has no place in football, zero tolerance to this kind of stuff imo!
like i said, i'd be ashamed if qpr did it and if we did i'd be calling for the exact same punishment too as it's straight up cheating there's no 2 ways about it.
if it happened to us we'd all be fuming and be calling for bielsa's head! this kinda thing shouldn't be tolerated at all and spoils the integrity of the game, i wouldn't be proud of our club if we did it. there's a big difference between sending scouts to watch a rival's game but watching training sessions is just disgraceful, team's obviously work on things and repeat the same drills over and over again and it gives teams an advantage if they know what another team is trying to work on.
leeds should be deducted 3 points at the very least and 3 points should be awarded to derby instead. sure, we're biting at derby's heels but i don't want football to be a game of spying and being sneaky.
