What I still don't get about this is timing - unless it's about not wanting to announce it until they have a replacement lined up.
As Dave notes, Somerville's worldy performance against Liverpool saved Marsch and that turned out well, but just can't see how the board can decide Farke's fate based on how we do against 2 of the top clubs in the world, rather than after three execrable performances against Burnley, Brighton and Forest. I'm not convinced that the fans/atmosphere are going to have much influence on this - and if it does that reflects even worse on the ownership. And right now after that sub-stellar transfer window and 6 months of trickling stories to the press about how Farke's days are numbered, that's really going to make us look like an attractive option for any half-decent replacement. So, let's all prepare to welcome back our once and future saviour Neil Warnock. jabba ________________________________ From: Leedslist <[email protected]> on behalf of nattan--- via Leedslist <[email protected]> Sent: 03 December 2025 11:24 To: leeds list <[email protected]> Subject: [LU] Chelsea/ Farke D Day Massive game tonight both in terms of our season and in terms of Farkes future.No doubt the 49ers will be aware of the Bournemouth and Liverpool results that kept Marsch in a job and how that worked out , so they will be reluctant to make a decision based on one or two games, but tonight could be the final push one way or another The fans are certainly split ( both on here and in real life) with me and my mates pretty 50/50 , one wanted him sacked after Southampton play off and never really changed his mind, 2 wanted him sacking post promotion as not being good enough, 4of us felt he 100% deserved his shot and are still behind him but very much wavering. The city performance has given us all hope and his future may depend on how DF reacts to it. Revert to his old system and make subs on 70mins, include Aaronson and Harrison in the line ups, and he is toast UNLESS we win ( then all is forgiven for a week , or till Saturday this time) Go for it with 2 up top and he will be OK as long as we look competitive and give them a game- a draw or win obviously will help him massively I'm not sure how much this " lost the dressing room " is a real thing and how much just a pundits fall back cliché, but, if true, it seems as if the team are still very much on his side and giving him their all , so the 49ers will not be in any rush to sack him unless the fans turn. The fans reaction from the start will depend on his team selection/ formation keep the 3 at the back and 2 strikers and the fans will be right behind then from the off, revert to type and there will be moans and groans and the fans reaction will be totally linked to the match itself , scoreline and how we play The slightly later kick off and under the lights, plus a history of hatred between the teams ( see lufc Lewis recent YouTube offering about the rivalry) should mean he atmosphere starts well but could turn quickly A game, a season perhaps, and a managers job all in the balance tonight Can't wait Come on leeds Dave _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmailman.gn.apc.org%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo%2Fleedslist&data=05%7C02%7C%7C89cfaf1c07194c0d6cf908de325e9f0d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C639003579162604970%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=E5UaLF99BP%2FsHuPIVn8TFjJvaRw67c5whnCi7SFZe%2BE%3D&reserved=0<https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist> To unsubscribe, email [email protected] Find us on Facebook https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fgroups%2Fleedslist%2F&data=05%7C02%7C%7C89cfaf1c07194c0d6cf908de325e9f0d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C639003579162639343%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=b%2FDO7JXYF%2Bz7%2FFP9YG%2B5PjyAqaLRmRR7DffD2N6mBDg%3D&reserved=0<https://www.facebook.com/groups/leedslist/> Rest In Peace Steve "Score one, score one more!"
