Leicester mock Leeds with brutal tweet after being promoted to the Premier League

The admin woke up and chose violence

Leicester City were in a trolling mood moments after securing promotion to the Premier League.

The Foxes knew that if Leeds lost to QPR on Friday night their return to the top flight would be confirmed, despite not playing until Monday.

Fortunately for them it proved to be a night to remember as QPR hammered the promotion-chasing Leeds 4-0, leaving them to fight it out with Ipswich Town for the final automatic spot.

After confirming promotion, Leicester immediately tweeted after the game: “I predict a riot”.

This was in reference to the game between the two teams at Elland Road earlier this season when Leeds came from behind to beat Enzo Maresca’s side 3-1.

Leeds then blasted the Kaiser Chiefs’ famous song, as they usually do when they win at home, as fans danced and sang around.

There was also a second tweet in which the Foxes admin said: “Print it on a t shirt”, a nod to the fact that Leeds made merchandise featuring Archie Gray’s goal against the table toppers.

It will now go down to the final day of the season for Leeds, who face Southampton while their closest challengers Ipswich have three games remaining, starting with Hull on Saturday night before playing Coventry City and Huddersfield.
