Former Leeds attacker Brian Deane sent a tweet out today criticisng Ipswich fans for wanting rid of manager Mick McCarthy and Leeds fans have piled onto Twitter to have their say.
McCarthy, who was due to leave at the end of the season, announced in his post-match press conference on Tuesday night that he would be leaving with immediate effect.

He posted the message on his personal Twitter page on Wednesday afternoon.
Ipswich Town fans be careful what you wish for, Mick McCarthy is one of the most honest hard working managers out there. You think the grass is greener ? On his budget he’s performed miracles. The fact he has now walked away should give you food for thought!

Not this Leeds. Mick won't be a first team coach taking the fall for Orta. I'd have Mick at #LUFC in a heartbeat. But on Micks terms.

Spot on Brian, some Ipswich fans made his life a nightmare from the start, good for Mick that he has walked away. We could do with Mick at Leeds United though!

— Lee Thompson (@lufcThommo) April 11, 2018
I’d have him at Elland Rd.
