Leeds fans have been reacting on Twitter after the club bravely (or stupidly) wished out of form goalkeeper Felix Wiedwald a happy birthday.
The 28 year-old keeper was signed from Werder Bremen last summer with high hopes, despite conceding 64 goals in 34 games in his final season with the Bundesliga outfit.
His Leeds career has gown considerably downhill since Christmas, and his form has pretty much encapsulated the state of the club as a whole.

His misery was compiled in the 3-0 defeat to Middlesbrough earlier this month. The German stopper was slow to react to the first goal, before allowing a second to squirm under him, and was just generally nervous all night.
He has since lost his place to youngster Bailey Peacock-Farrell, and doesn’t look like getting it back any time soon.
This morning, the club wished Wiedwald a happy 28th birthday, and the responses are as expected. Most fans have taken the chance to ridicule the German, and some even responded to the tweet with genuine pity, which is just about as bad as it gets.
