Piers Morgan has savaged Leeds United players for ignoring fans on their way to the stadium to take on Bournemouth on Sunday, 30 April.

There were a group of fans including a young boy who was waiting to see his heroes and get a wave, smile or even a high five from his idols.

However, all the players ignored him and the rest of the fans in the hotel lobby and looked down at their phones as they walked out.

Via Twitter, Morgan said, "Selfish arrogant p****."

Spot on

Leeds players cannot be treating the fans in this manner given the fact that some of them have been supporting the club back when they were in the third division.

They need to be grateful that the supporters filled the stadium even the football and the results were awful and the culture of the club has become so rotten now.

This would never have happened under Marcelo Bielsa as he understood what the club meant to the city and how important the fans were.

They cannot be isolated from their supporters, especially at such a time when they're not performing up to the mark and appear nailed on for relegation.

The club has issued an apology but that's certainly done because of the backlash they faced on social media for it.

If they were really sorry they would be putting up better performances on the pitch against sides that they should be beating.
