Shaun Thomson, of Sandler Training, on the Sun Website said fans look at Leeds and immediately think "they are arrogant and big-headed".
He added: "To change the perception of other fans, Leeds must stop living up to the negative image that's been created around the club and start doing things differently.
"Maybe that's what Morecambe have achieved — they are new to the league, have new ideas and positive appeal."
