Gary Lineker rages as footage of Leeds & Man United fans emerges
Leeds United fans returned to the Premier League on Saturday as they made the trip to Manchester United.
As expected, it kicked off immediately before kick-off with fans clashing in the heart of Manchester in the streets.
Footage has emerged on Twitter as fans fighting in the streets, and it hasn’t gone down well on the first day of the season.
Gary Lineker has responded to the clip on his personal Twitter account, and he was fuming with what he saw.
“Oh for crying out loud, grow up you idiots,” he wrote.
Really?
These are grown men running around the streets and smashing up property, all for the sake of a fight.
It instantly ruins the matchday experience for many and will cast a huge shadow over both clubs moving forward.
What would those younger fans think of this? The footage literally comes from a cafe by the looks of it, there is no excuse for this.
We hope that things on the pitch take our minds away from this, but those involved need to take a good look at themselves.
The game is about to get underway, and we want to concentrate on that rather than waste our breath on this, bring it on.
