Good manager. Should have you comfortably mid table.

Farke is a down to earth guy.. unlike some players like Gnonto, Sini, Adams, and Summerville who are acting like spoilt brats, and there should be ZERO tolerance for that despicable kind of behaviour - by the way that pink strip is disgusting...the designer should be slapped.

Agree with all your points Jonty. I absolutely love the guy.

"We are Leeds United and we don't make things easy".

He gets it, doesn't he?

I also like his ruthless approach to the spineless, gutless mercenaries who think they are deserving of a higher grade of football when they've just spent a whole season proving they couldn't hack it the first time round.

He did warn us about August and the bumpy ride we were going to be in for, so we shouldn't be too surprised.

To put things in perspective, yesterday we lost to a last minute penalty in only the second game of the season with the absolute bare bones of a side and nobody to change the game from on the bench.

I trust him too and he will get it right.

I like him also but it's big shoes to fill after Bielsa. I'm trying to completely erase the memory of having Jessie marsch in charge, who was completely over his head. 49ers are doing everything but filling me with confidence but there's not much you can do about owners
Still time for them to turn this tough player situation around and bring in the five or six players we need to compete.

All that matters is what happens on the pitch.

Havent seen anything yet

If he’s given time, he’ll get us on the right path.

Agree totally, Jonty. Good post, as usual.

Always good to have a stretch goal.

Have seen bits and pieces, but greatly undermined by several factors, half the squad jumping ship as soon as they could rather than face the ignominity of relegation and a wage cut, the injuries to major influancers in the squad, Mancini's direction to Gnonto to move to a top flight club even though he is nowhere near that level hence the lack of interest beyond Everton has spread disquiet in the squad, the owners reluctance to invest in the squad until sales have been made has made it impossible to strengthen the on field talent have all hogtied Farke and meant are nowhere near the side the side we could be.

Good manager, if he is backed we will be OK.

I get a similar feeling with Farke and us as I did with the likes or Arteta when he went to Arsenal. Not comparing the club or manager quality but more he is having to almost dig deep to help rid us of our issues

There is a lot or crud at the club. A lot of that down to previous regemes and management.

Almost a one step forward, two back situation

He comes across well and as if he knows what he is doing.

We cant keep comparing managers to Bielsa. Be was a one off they just don't make them like that.

However im enjoying Farke so far and thank god he wants to pass the ball. You feel once he gets his players in we might go somewhere. Might not be overnight so we have to have some patience

Execs haven't earned our trust or respect (yet).

Only thing left is to put faith in Farke as we can't do anything else.

It's the usual Leeds bumpy ride but we have to believe we'll get there.
