Indeed, they will have been boosted by the early kick-off in the Championship – which resulted in a 2-2 draw between Norwich and Ipswich. But, Leeds failed to take advantage, only drawing with Coventry.
Mark Robins’ side went behind to Summerville‘s opener just before the hour mark, only for Coventry’s summer signing Thomas to equalise less than 10 minutes later. After the final whistle, it all kicked off.
Thomas went to shake the hand of Summerville, a player that had fouled our Dutch flyer numerous times throughout. Summerville reacted, angrily pushing Thomas. He was held back by Willy Gnonto.
Speaking after the game, as per the Yorkshire Post, Thomas blasted Summerville for showing “no respect” after the final whistle. He accused Summerville of not shaking hands, having offered to do so.
“It was Summerville. I went to shake his hand and he palmed it off, so you thought there was no respect there. You have argy-bargy on the pitch, but you shake hands after. But he didn’t,” Thomas claimed.
Bobby Thomas accuses Leeds star of showing no respect
Summerville is renowned for his aggression and often being the one that starts moments like this. He has recently spoken of teasing Lee Peltier at Rotherham – which prompted a response from Peltier.
Summerville was clearly frustrated at Leeds failing to win a second game in a row, as the Whites fail to get back to winning ways. Ahead of a crucial game vs Ipswich, the draw feels like two points dropped.
