A lot of Leeds United fans have lauded Phil Hay after he received his own piece of artwork from Andy McVeigh or the ‘Burley Bansky.’
McVeigh has become famous in Leeds for his Whites inspired paintings all around the city, and Hay is the latest person to receive one.
Does Phil Hay deserve this artwork?
Yes, he is a key part of the club now
No, he is just a reporter
The piece is based on a quote that The Athletic reporter said last year about Leeds United.
This quote will now forever be immortalised in Leeds, and it has gone down brilliantly on Twitter.
Love this https://t.co/sMPdGDzJHS

What do we think?
There is no question that Hay is one of the most respected Leeds United reporters around, and it is good to see that many fans of the Whites appreciate his dedication and passion.
This latest piece of artwork is just one in a stunning range created by McVeigh.
