Elland Road can be a ferocious, bear pit of a stadium, but not when it is half empty. On Monday the locals were heading for the exit with 20 minutes to go after seeing their team provide another shocking, stunning example of relegation football.
The ones who stayed – and there were many – were still cheering their team on at the end, but Javi Gracia’s side did not deserve it.
This was Leeds’ second home shellacking in a fortnight. It was 5-1 against Crystal Palace earlier this month and here it was a goal worse.
