A lot of Leeds United fans have responded to Leeds’ tweet calling out the decision made by the referee during the Whites’ 2-1 defeat to Fulham.

Leeds, clearly annoyed about the situation, put a tweet out with the definition of contact sport to prove that Ben White’s foul on Bobby Reid was not a penalty.

Were Leeds right to slate the decision on their account?

Yes, it was an awful decision and needed to be called out

This had a mixed reaction from many Leeds fans, with some Whites supporters in agreement with the club.

Other Leeds fans, though, felt that the tweet was needless.

What do we think?

The penalty that Fulham were awarded was very soft, (0:30) and it gave Scott Parker’s men the perfect start, but for the club’s official Twitter account to moan about it is a bit far.

Yes, it was a poor decision, (0:30) but Leeds still have a eight-point gap to third place and have to move on as they face a tricky test against another promotion rival on Boxing Day as Preston North End visit Elland Road.

Leeds will have to respond to this defeat at Craven Cottage, and the best way to do that would be to beat Alex Neil’s side.
