    Seen footage of Leicester’s goal at Leeds last night. Quite a few ‘ missiles’ landed on the pitch close to Vardy. Not heard any mention about this

    The referees performance has no relevance whatsoever. It's completely inexcusable to throw anything onto the pitch. It does nothing but potentially land the club in hot water.

    Again that bit I said I agree with. I can understand getting frustrated but we have to live in a world where we just have to watch it and not react.

    I'm not sure why that's relevant either, but if anything that just reflects badly on Leeds United.

    Believe me, I've been very upset with some of the refereeing decisions that have gone against us over the years. And as you say, we've had some belters go against us this season. But it's just football at the end of the day. I get people do things in the heat of the moment, but throwing something at someone else is a conscious decision. For me it's not a reaction. In the same way that throwing a punch is. I've never felt the need to do either, and I simply don't understand why anyone else would. And that's why for me, they deserve everything they get.

    I'm not saying you necessarily, but people seem more bothered that fans of other clubs aren't being punished, or that the refereeing standard isn't great, and aren't focusing on the main issue, and that's the behaviour of Barnsley fans. It's something the club can actually do something about, and to be fair, they're doing the best they can.

    Why would you (or any of us) hear mention of it? The post on here came direct from the club. I would assume that Leeds fans groups would get messages expressing disappointment at missiles.

    As far as I'm aware our missile throwing hasn't made national news, unsurprising as it's in League 1.

    Happens all time at Elland Road I think they have banned a few fans for life past few seasons for it too.
