Leeds now

doggybag

Sorry. You've lost me. But the exchange is academic now anyway if the rumours turn out to be true. I'll be finished with Leeds United INC if it is so.

Mourinho would be interesting. Works for me, park that bus and piss everyone off in the process..

Whats everyone pissing and moaning about.

Im bored to buggery of all this bull shit about free flowing football.

Foxy_Dread But all clubs had the same (dis)advantages at that time, so Revie’s win rate is comparable as Shankly, Mee and all the rest had the same factors. Yes Farke has advantages that Revie didn’t, but you are comparing results against other teams, who in each era would have had similar situations.

Foxy_Dread

Kevin_Stapleton if you only have one sub Vs five subs, luck plays a greater part.

If you are competing to the latter stages of every comp with a squad of 14 seniors and kids luck plays a greater part than if you are playing the reserves and going out of the cup at the earliest opportunity.

I like him....It'll be a shame if they did that to him. And apparently he's a Firebeast.
At certain times.

Kevin_Stapleton

Foxy_Dread But Farke is competing against managers who all have more subs / bigger squads etc.

Foxy_Dread

Kevin_Stapleton and the clubs with a bigger budget have higher quality deeper into their huge squads. As we will find out next season.

Kevin_Stapleton

Foxy_Dread Thinking on this today, and win percentages are not comparable over time due to the ever increasing gulf in wealth - and therefore quality - between teams both within and between divisions. Farke’s win % would take a hit next season as Leeds went from big fish / small pond to small fish / big pond.

So you’re right, but not for the reasons you suggested. 🙂

Jon

He won’t get fired will he? His contract is up at the end of the season. They’ll just not renew if they want to go with someone else.

Foxy_Dread

Jon his contract runs until June 2027.

Jon

Foxy_Dread I thought he had a two year deal. My mistake.

You have to ask? The Portuguese special, of course. I may join you on 2 and 3 if the bastards assassinate DF.

@doggybag Im just being a tit. I dont really care one way or another. I dont really know the details.

All I want is to see us in European football, preferably Europa Cup or whatever it is

Statistically more chance of that happening with Jose than Farke. Based on both coache past history. Im aware there are other influences but for me its that simple.

Im sure there other options of coaches I dont know anything about.

Foxy_Dread

Placid everyone is being so fanny, if they were investory they might see it differently.

There seems to be a lot of people on here who agree with you and the brave new world of football by numbers. I'm ok with that; it's a free country (still, I think). But there are some who think that, specifically with respect to DF, it stinks. After what he has done for this football club to even consider not backing him is shameful. But you know what? They've leaked it out there now so it hasn't really got anywhere else to go. Bournemouth were lucky with Iraola, Brighton with Potter. But Man U got Ten Hag and Amorim. I wonder what name the data will spew out for Leeds. He'd better have a thick skin.

Placid

Just listened to Bbc Radio Leeds Pod, Eddie Gray on. Well worth a listen.

Quite telling about Phillips

I thought he was very harsh on Phillips who was excellent in his time at Leeds.
