Footballers and fashion, it’s a dangerous combination at times.
Last night was the premiere of the ‘Take Us Home’ documentary, the Amazon Prime series that followed Leeds United through the highs and lows of last season as they tried to reach the Premier League.
I don’t know about you, but I’m just interested in finding out what went on behind the scenes after the Derby County game.
Jamie Shackleton, Alfie McCalmont, Robbie Gotts and Jordan Stevens drew a lot of attention from supporters on Twitter as they walked the red carpet, although as this fan pointed out surely it should have been a yellow, white & blue carpet.
Now before I show you what Leeds’ fans thought of the player’s choice of outfits, just a heads up. I am in no position to judge people on their fashion sense, I buy my trainers from George at ASDA (other supermarkets available), so I’m not going to criticise or praise them for what they’re wearing, this is just what the fans think.
Did the lads get a groupon for those trainers?

Others though, and this bit I do somewhat agree with them on, that they all looked like some sort of boyband.
