Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani decided to stay away from Tottenham Hotspur clash due to abuse from fans
Andrea Radrizzani chose to stay away from the final Leeds United game against Tottenham Hotspur last weekend due to abuse from fans.
According to the Daily Mail [03 June, Page 109], the Whites owner’s family was also brought into the crosshairs by some of the fans.
It’s understood that he will receive a “torrid” reception if he is to ever return to Elland Road, amid talks of selling the club to the San Francisco 49ers.
Unacceptable
Leeds fans cannot drag Radrizzani’s family into this no matter how bad of an owner he’s been in the last few years.
They can chant against him as he’s the decision maker but his family must be left out of everything as this is not their fight.
If that indeed was the reason why he didn’t come to the stadium then it’s worrisome not just for him but for people close to him as well.
Fans need to know better than this and if any evidence emerges of certain individuals targeting his family, they must be reprimanded however the club sees fit.
If this means stadium bans for them, then so be it, as such vile behaviour cannot be tolerated by the Elland Road faithful.
No Leeds fan is happy with the job Radrizzani is doing but the vast majority of them will not be dragging his family into this mess.
In other Leeds United news, Phil Hay claims that a Whites senior player is now set to leave the club at a discounted fee post relegation and will not be signing a new contract.
