'Without fans, every single club is nothing... so it's important that we stand our ground and keep it that way': Leeds striker Patrick Bamford slams European Super League and urges supporters to keep fighting against controversial breakaway tournament

Patrick Bamford admitted he's been blown away by the European Super League scandal, as the Leeds striker insisted football must stand-up to the project.

Leeds held Liverpool to a 1-1 draw on Monday, while Reds fans gathered outside Elland Road to furiously protest their club's involvement in the plot – which would see the Premier League Big Six join the division alongside the likes of Real Madrid and Juventus.

Bamford, alongside the rest of the Leeds squad, donned shirts with the slogans 'earn it' and 'football is for the fans' for their warm-up.
