    Cannot fathom if this has direct Leeds connections or Rangers or leaks actually coming direct from inside ER ?

    Farke or Mourinho to Rangers odds anybody ?
    Dunno why Leeds have not quickly quashed rumours by offering Farke an improved or extended contract & put all shenanigans to bed if their is NO problem.
    "Dunno why Leeds have not quickly quashed rumours by offering Farke an improved or extended contract & put all shenanigans to bed if their is NO problem.".....Perhaps there IS a problem? As HO mentions, Farkes record in keeping clubs in the PL doesn't inspire confidence and some of his behaviours in the current season are out of place for someone who seeks to manage a PL squad effectively.

    There is always the possibility, now we have been promoted, that our current owners see Rangers as a more rapid route to European football and the financial gains that would bring, and would be willing to offload LUFC (at a PL "premium" price0, to the likes of Red Bull, who have consistently shown the ability and willingness to get involved for the longer term?

    Of course they will pump more money into Rangers. We are only a minnow club now. As for farke every business does due diligence at some point every year. They work out the plus and negatives and come to a conclusion. Now you want them to quash rumours and sign him after bagging him all season like some of us also have.
    Like you say his record isn't good in fact shocking so they will be looking at that and say do we take a chance. I think klop been around the club isn't a coincidence more of a quick fix if things go pear shaped.
    My main concern is take the chance as he will bring in players and if we fail the new manager is set up to fail also. Which ever way they go they must do it straight after the season ends.

    Yeah and 3 hours behind also lol. Good lad 90 is a good innings now days still it's hard watching dear one going that way. Life continues like your niece a new life starts.
    Shame your so far away could have had a catch up and a Greek feast.

    Falling out spectacularly with the chairman in public doesn?t help and his recent comments about not being backed in January aren?t likely to help.

    They need to stay up so whatever is necessary I am sure they will do.

    Interesting podcast with Eddie Gray where he was pretty clear but in his very polite and measured tones that the squad needs to be upgraded.
    He was the one that told the club he doesn't want to bring anyone in and went public with it total backflip! Yes the spat well wouldn;t go down well with any employer. And the fact the rumours circling and club not making any announcement means they are more correct than not.
    I just hope somehow red bull finds a way to buy us out totally as they are born winners and we just may thrive under them.

    On another matter I just seen his record with us for the 2 season and for a club like ours and the players he had it's not that great about 52% games won.
    On Red bull wouldn't be nice they take over bring in players like raph Harland and the like? I know dreaming right lol

    Errrr, No, I most certainly do NOT want the club to sign or quash anything. Would prefer it if we saw some real ambition from the owners by bringing in someone with a real prospect of keeping us in the PL, which isn't Farke.

    Not quite sure why as he is record this season is excellent but really struggle to warm to Farke. At times we play really good attacking football too.
