He did serve us well, but for obvious reasons which I surely don't need to spell out, he is not someone who I think about favourably. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,236 Posted July 4, 2023 I wonder if Farke will sign a defensive midfielder? Until we see where Webber ends up, and if it's Leeds, you can't help feel extremely uneasy about it. If Leeds have already lined him up it makes you wonder what Zoe knows about it. I just can't believe he is going to Leeds, a huge rival, and remains with some influence at our club. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keith Scott 244 Posted July 4, 2023 Farke at Leeds. Absolutely sickening. Hope he fails miserably and is sacked by Xmas. Then i hope he goes on to have an outstanding career. But not at Leeds. **** Leeds. All the best. Big Keith Scott. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's to our benefit, so far he seems to be doing a good job of strengthening us and they're operating without a fixed SD until we're happy to let him move on. This idea that he'd seek to weaken us to help Leeds out is fanciful, his remit at Leeds will be to push for European spots, not establish them as a self sustainable Top 26 team - different waters completely.

You’re aware that Leeds are a Championship club? The idea of Farke ‘pushing for European spots’ given he’s not successfully managed a top-flight season anywhere is also somewhat interesting. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ridgeman 131 Posted July 4, 2023 I have a lot of respect for Farke and wish him well, however, if Webber follows Farke to Leeds that respect will disappear. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can guarantee that would be Webber's goal should he walk into Leeds, I doubt they want a man who's goal will be to achieve top 26.

Agree with investment but definitely not a managerial genius, when are people going to stop saying that? If he was a genius why are no bigger clubs after him?

canarybubbles 1,915 Posted July 4, 2023 I must admit that I'm surprised that Farke is willing to go to a club where most likely Webber will be his boss again. He must know by now that Webber has no commitment to any particular brand or style of football or footballing philosophy, but commitment only to his own personal career, with perhaps a touch of management pseudobabble. This could well end in tears if it happens. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 5,142 Posted July 4, 2023 2 hours ago, Captain Holt said: There are certain posters who will tell you that everything the club does is wrong and there are others who will tell you every decision is right. Both are wrong and are equally infuriating. I am struggling to think of these posters who tell you everything the club does is right. I definitely fall on the “the club gets far more right than wrong” side of the spectrum, and I could name several posters who are similar, but none of us have a blinkered “the club can do no wrong” attitude. If you (not you specifically Captain) actually read people’s posts, rather than just dismiss them as Delia-loving apologists and skip past them, this should be obvious. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keith Scott 244 Posted July 4, 2023 Anyone who wishes Farke well at Leeds is A) Not a proper football fan. And B) A proper NFN. Although I guess the two go hand in hand. All the best. Big K.Scott. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
