Brian McDermott admits to receiving abusive phone calls from Leeds United fans

Leeds United manager Brian McDermott reveals that he has received abusive phone calls from angry supporters.

Leeds United manager Brian McDermott has revealed that he has received a number of abusive phone calls from disgruntled fans.

The Championship outfit are currently dealing with financial issues due to the Football League's decision to block Massimo Cellino's takeover following a tax evasion conviction.

On the pitch, Leeds have lost six of their last seven games, which has sparked discontent among a number of supporters.

"I got some phone calls late at night recently and it's just not right," McDermott told BBC Radio Leeds. "There's a right and wrong and that is just wrong because I am digging in."

Leeds are currently 15th in the league table.
