“Do Not Ever Let Samuel Barrot Referee Again!” – Outrage After Controversial Red Card in Leeds Draw

Leeds United’s 1-1 draw has been overshadowed by fury from fans and pundits alike, after referee Samuel Barrot came under heavy fire for what many are calling a disgraceful decision.

The flashpoint came when Leeds defender Renildo was shown a straight red card in the second half, a decision that immediately stunned players, coaches, and supporters. The dismissal shifted the momentum of the game, with Leeds forced to dig deep to salvage a point.

Social media erupted within minutes of the final whistle, with “Barrot” trending alongside furious messages from fans. One statement read:

“DO NOT EVER LET SAMUEL BARROT REFEREE THIS GAME AGAIN! It was never a red to Renildo.”

Former players and pundits also weighed in, blasting the decision as both harsh and unnecessary. Many insisted that a yellow card would have sufficed, while others went further, questioning the referee’s consistency and integrity.

The Leeds camp was equally frustrated. While manager Daniel Farke stopped short of directly attacking the referee, he admitted post-match that the red card “completely changed the rhythm of the game.”

Supporters, however, were less forgiving. Chants of “corrupt referee” echoed around the stands as the game concluded, and calls are already mounting for the FA to review Barrot’s performance.

With Leeds still chasing vital points this season, the controversial decision has left a bitter taste, and the club’s supporters are demanding accountability.

Whether the FA takes action or not, one thing is clear – Leeds fans will not soon forget this name: Samuel Barrot.
