A lot of Leeds United fans are furious at a video from their match with Millwall, which shows that the Whites were denied a blatant corner with the score at 1-0.
Is this one of the worst decisions of the season?
Yes, it is an awful error
No, it is bad but there have been worse
In the end, it did not matter as Leeds won the match thanks to a remarkable comeback, but many Whites supporters were still angry at the performance of the referee.

No excuses from that. The ref should never referee again. @EFL are a bunch of jokers

What do we think?
The footage shows Luke Ayling play a ball to Patrick Bamford; he then turns one around the corner to Stuart Dallas, who gets to the ball ahead of a Millwall defender and then lashes a strike from an acute angle that Bartosz Bialkowski clearly tips around the post.
Dallas is clearly stunned by the decision, and Bialkowski also looks pretty surprised.
This was just one example of some odd refereeing in the match last night.
This, while not game-changing, was still awful officiating from the referee, and his assistants didn’t give him much help.
It is no surprise to see so many Whites fans annoyed by this decision.
