Leeds United coach sign a 27-year-old Leeds United player with….

Troy Deeney questioned why Leeds United did not receive a penalty against Bristol City for George Tanner’s “awful” challenge on Georginio Rutter.

Late in the first half of Friday’s Championship match at Ashton Gate, Tanner made evident contact with Rutter; nevertheless, a spot-kick was not given.

The Sky Sports panel felt that Leeds should have had a penalty kick, but in the end, it didn’t really matter because Wilfried Gnonto’s goal gave the Whites a 1-0 victory.

On Sky Sports Main Event, Deeney stated, “I’d like to see a man of his size take that one touch and score” (February 2, 20:56). “That’s terrible, so the defender is lucky.”

The challenge was described as “reckless” by host David Prutton, and as “a penalty all day long” by Jermaine Beckford.
