‘Amazing start to 2021’, ‘Great news’ – Some Leeds fans react to big update on unpopular pundit
The controversy surrounding Leeds United and Karen Carney has dominated the headlines over the last few days but there’s another pundit who didn’t escape the ire of Whites fans.
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink was also on the Amazon Prime show for the West Brom game and agreed with Carney’s point that so offended the Leeds fans.
He’s come in for flak as well but, in a big new development, he’s found his escape plan.
Burton Albion announced on Friday that Hasselbaink is their new manager and that will obviously remove him from punditry duties.
That’s something the Leeds fans are very, very happy about.
Some Leeds fans reacted sarcastically to the news, saying that as Hasselbaink seemingly knows how to manage a team better than Marcelo Bielsa, they should be seeing Burton in the Premier League before long.
Others just signalled their relief that he’ll be moving from the TV studios to the dugout at Burton.
We think it’s a bit harsh. Hasselbaink might not have been the best pundit around but he had a big slice of Leeds running through his veins.
You wouldn’t know it listening to these responses to the big news…
Some Leeds fans have called for Jermaine Beckford to replace Hasselbaink on punditry duties.
Now that’s something we can definitely get behind.
