"Shock Jock" predicts Leeds are heading back to League One!
Motormouth Talksport Presenter Adrian Durham has predicted today that Leeds will be relegated at the end of the forthcoming season, along with Watford and Millwall.
Peterborough fan Durham who presents the teatime drivetime show with Yorkshire cricket legend Darren Gough does have a tendancy to try to be controversial for the sake of it and is generally ridiculed by callers and listeners to the show, who brand him a "Ginger Whinger" - however his message to whites' followers this evening was bleak...you are going back to League One along with Watford and Millwall.
According to Durham, the loss of Bradley Johnson and Neil Kilkenny will weaken Leeds from being unable to compete with the likes of West Ham, Birmingham, Middlesbrough, Leicester and even Saturday's opponents newly promoted Southampton. He criticised Leeds for the sale of Kasper Schmeichel saying it was outrageous he was told he was "not good enough" for Leeds and said he will be "amazed" of Max Gradel is still at Er by the end of the transfer window.
Is he a geniune prophet of doom or a brainless lampoon?
