 Wise has no regrets over making the leak public |
Leeds manager Dennis Wise has "no regrets" in revealing that a mole revealed team news to Crystal Palace ahead of last weekend's game. But Wise has condemned the unnamed player for remaining silent.
"I have no regrets, none at all," Wise told BBC Radio Leeds. "That person is the only person who knows.
"He is the only person who can end all the speculation. But if he's not bold enough and brave enough to come forward then maybe we'll never know."

Leeds won the fixture 2-1 but remain bottom of the Championship.
And Wise added: "We have had a chat and the players know how everything stands and how I feel about things. And what is right and what is wrong.
"All the others who get mentioned, he is the only one who can drag them out of it and stop the speculation."
Leeds chief executive Shaun Harvey was full of praise for Eagles boss Peter Taylor for admitting that he "had an idea" who would be in the Leeds team - although Taylor has since told Wise he over-reacted.
"It is to Peter Taylor's credit that when fronted with the question by Dennis Wise he actually confirmed the answer because it would have been very easy for him to say no," stated Harvey.

"Dennis spoke to all the players on Monday and said, despite everything that has gone on, we won on Saturday, that's the positive.
"He told them to have a look at yourselves, if you can look at yourself in the mirror then fine but if you have anything to say to me come forward.
"So we will deal with the matter as and when that happens but the most important thing at the moment is for everyone to be united behind the club and aiming for three points on Saturday.
"We will deal with the matter internally as and when we have all the information to hand but we won't make any knee-jerk reactions.
"Once we know the full ramifications of who, how and why, those decisions will be made, and those decisions will be made in the best interests of Leeds United Football Club."
