Laura Woods in hysterics as Leeds United fan has meltdown over Big Sam appointment

Leeds look set to go from Marcelo Bielsa to Sam Allardyce in a matter of 14 months, and one fan wasn't happy at all.

Laura Woods was left in hysterics at a Leeds United fan's reaction to the news that Sam Allardyce could become their new manager.

It's not exactly been an ideal season for Leeds, who sacked Jesse Marsch in February, less than a year after he'd taken over from Marcelo Bielsa.

In an attempt to keep themselves away from the drop, the Yorkshire side appointed Javi Gracia a couple of weeks later, earning a win against Southampton in his first game.

However, since then things have gone badly, winning just three of his first 12 games in charge, and losing seven of them, to leave the club facing a huge relegation battle.

Things really came to a nadir on Saturday, with Leeds getting battered 4-1 by Bournemouth, leaving them only above the relegation zone on goal difference, with only four games left.

Embarrassingly club owner Andrea Radrizzani appeared to be in a fan's DMs accepting blame for everything that had gone wrong with the team.

It looks like the Italian is now trying to right his wrongs, with director of football Victor Orta sacked on Tuesday, and Gracia looking set to join him.

Allardyce has been heavily rumoured to take the job, and that sent one caller into talkSPORT spiralling, something Woods found hilarious.

The caller opened by saying, "Well I've stopped crying anyway," instantly sending Arsenal fan Woods, and Ally McCoist, into hysterics.

"Sam Allardyce, what's the point," he continued in his dismay at the running of the club he supports, "Four games left, paying somebody a load of money just on a hope and a prayer that we're going to get a result at West Ham.

"These clowns! Radz, should just sell the club now, let's get the [San Francisco] 49ers in, spend the money on a proper manager, instead of these sausages."

It would be a lot easier to feel sorry for the poor, fed up, fan if we weren't so distracted by the host finding the whole thing absolutely hilarious.

Whilst the manager is partially to blame, the players aren't living up to expectations either, though it's not just on the pitch where they're being criticised.

A video of them walking past an excited little boy without acknowledging him went viral over the weekend, though the family have defended the club.
