DO WOT?!! Leeds fuming over cheeky pizza demand from Middlesbrough

Leeds United chiefs are upset by a cheeky request from Middlesbrough ahead of today's clash at Elland Road.

The Daily Star says Boro bosses have asked Leeds to provide SIX STONE BAKED pizzas in their Elland Road dressing room after the Championship clash.

A member of Boro's fitness staff emailed Leeds to request three chicken pizzas and three vegetarian for Aitor Karanka's men to boost their carbohydrates and energy levels after a game.

A Leeds source said: "We felt like asking Middlesbrough if they would like us to provide a waiter as well to serve it up to them. It's a dressing room, not a pizza parlour.

"We couldn't believe it when this email came through ahead of this weekend's game.

"It requested six stone baked pizzas be delivered to the changing room. Three with chicken on, the other three vegetarian."
