Fair bit of noise about Bo Svensson as next manager but I haven't heard the name from any of my more connected sources.
1.) 17 Nov 2025 09:13:29
What names have you heard from your connected sources?
2.) 17 Nov 2025 23:27:44
The ones already mentioned. Rodgers, CC, Carrick.
13 Nov 2025 09:42:05
allegedly DF was given a taget of 5 points from the 5 games starteing with Forest. Therefore, he now needs 5 points from the next 4 games to stay.
1.) 13 Nov 2025 13:41:18
And if he gets those is he safe or is it a rolling target?
Absolutely pointless.
49ers want booting out as soon as possible. We will be relegated.

If he can’t get 5 points from spam forest and Burnley I doubt he Will v next four. Pointless as mot says. Let’s waste another 4 games.
4.) 14 Nov 2025 09:55:27
Feels like kicking the can down the proverbial road, especially given the fixtures we have not taken points from compared to what’s coming up.
It can only be, they have not identified anyone deemed better or willing to take on a relegation battle with a poor squad and no money available under PSR.
Just a personal view, I would still change as I do not recognise the dna of these current Leeds performances and would like to see us take an FA cup giant killing mentality for every remaining game.
Just me though, other views are just as warranted.
5.) 14 Nov 2025 10:38:58
Spot on class. Nail head.
6.) 15 Nov 2025 13:43:28
The dna we won’t change. Which should have been changed but
Now unrecognisable.
11 Nov 2025 11:06:33
Fulham looking at getting rid of Silva- would love him at Leeds.
1.) 11 Nov 2025 15:48:30
No thanks.
2.) 12 Nov 2025 08:57:15
Would hazard a guess the sound received back from both sounded like NO.
11 Nov 2025 07:41:38
Some mumblings about a possible Jan move for Union Berlin's Danilho Doekhi.
10 Nov 2025 08:29:43
Marco Rose emerging as favourite to take over from Farke. Former Dortmund and Leipzig coach.
1.) 10 Nov 2025 08:50:58
Is farke going to get the boot though.
2.) 10 Nov 2025 09:51:40
You hear things now and again Alf, do you believe Farke will go?
3.) 10 Nov 2025 23:54:39
He is on thin ice but nothing from my sources saying it's imminent.
4.) 11 Nov 2025 09:36:38
Thanks Alf, could you give your sources a kick from us please.

Lots of knee jerk reactions after the game yesterday. It was inevitable that there would be days like this in the Prem and there will be more. Just don't let the losses get you down too much and don't get carried away by the wins. Lots of football still to play and we are still on target for 1 point per game.
1.) 02 Nov 2025 20:47:33
Alf, are people mad because we lost, or because of how we lost? There's a big difference.
2.) 03 Nov 2025 08:20:54
Knee jerk reaction Alf? Funny.
Poor v spam. Spanked by gunners. Lucky to play Everton pre grealisisish. Shoulda beaten Bournemouth and Fulham. Lost to Burnley. Yep Burnley. Only good display was wolves. Deserved point.

Two builders go into the pub after a hard day's work. They're sat drinking for a while when a very smartly dressed man walks in and orders a drink. The two began to speculate about what the man did for a living.
"I'll bet he's an accountant. " said the first builder.
"Looks more like a stockbroker to me. " argued the second. They continued to debate the subject for a good while until eventually the first builder needed to use the toilet. On walking in, he saw the smartly dressed man standing at a urinal.
"Excuse me mate, but me and my friend have been arguing over what a smartly dressed fella like you does for a living? " the builder said to the man.
Smiling the man replied, "I'm a logical scientist. "
"A what? " asked the builder.
"Let me explain" the man continued, "Do you have a goldfish at home? "
A bit puzzled, but intrigued the builder decided to play along, "Yes, I do as it happens. "
"Well then it's logical to assume that you either keep it in a bowl or a pond. Which is it? "
"A pond" the builder replied.
"Well then it's logical to assume that you have a large garden. " The builder nodded his agreement. So the man continued, "which means it's logical to assume you have a large house. "
"I have a 6 bedroom house that I built myself. " the builder said proudly.
"Given that you have such a large house, it's logical to assume that you are married. "
The builder nodded again, "Yes, I'm married and we have three children. "
"Then it's logical to assume that you have a healthy sex life. "
"Five nights a week! " the builder boasted.
The man smiled a little, "Therefore it's logical to assume you don't masturbate often. "
"Never! " the builder exclaimed.
"Well there you have it" the man explained, "That's logical science at work. From finding out that you have a goldfish, I've discovered the size of your garden, all about your house, your family and your sex life! "
The builder left, very impressed by the man's talents. On returning to the bar the other builder asked, "I see that smart bloke was in there, did you find out what he does? "
"Yeah, " replied the first, "He's a logical scientist. "
"A what? " the puzzled second builder asked.
"Let me explain" the first builder continued, "Do you have a goldfish at home? "
"No" replied his mate.
"Well, you're a w@nker then! "

?, sometimes we all draw those conclusions Alf ?,
2.) 23 Oct 2025 16:13:44
The old ones are the best Alf! ?.
02 Oct 2025 15:16:38
DJ out for 6 weeks the latest so not as bad as we feared.
1.) 03 Oct 2025 07:55:08
Might even be only 4, but like someone else said in a different thread, bring him back slowly, and only when 100% fit.
2.) 03 Oct 2025 08:49:03
Don’t think that will be the end of it. Think we won’t see much of him this season.
3.) 03 Oct 2025 12:33:08
He's been a bit off the pace every time he's come on this season, so needs to be brought back slowly and carefully.
25 Sep 2025 13:51:07
Bogle fit, James back training but Gnonto out.
1.) 25 Sep 2025 15:05:45
Pretty sure swap ba for James and we good to go. Same 10 as before. Although James needs to step up quickly.
2.) 25 Sep 2025 16:29:14
not much you can do about an injury.
3.) 26 Sep 2025 00:02:26
Rest James and Bogle. Don't risk it.
JJ can help BA on the wing. It's going to be a magic combo and a Brenda redemption arc.
4.) 26 Sep 2025 04:30:59
I suspect both James and Bogle will be 70 min subs. James maybe 80.
5.) 26 Sep 2025 07:35:01
Definitely start Bogle, it was only a bruised foot, can always sub him later in the game if necessary.
Also need Dan James upping the anti, but agree that his inclusions should be gradual as his fitness perhaps is not quite there yet. You can’t fault Aaronson’s work rate, like Harrison but for me neither has any end product, both need to occupy the bench in my opinion.
6.) 26 Sep 2025 08:04:36
I'm with Mot on this, and wouldn't personally risk either as starters. BA can run himself into the ground for an hour and give them no time to breathe, and we can give JJ a good run out. 2 great subs then to help us nick the win.
7.) 26 Sep 2025 17:04:08
Do we need James upping the anti, the ante, or the Aunty? I feel this is important.
8.) 26 Sep 2025 22:36:29
Auntie Alf are you my new spell checker?
You can if you want, I really don’t mind.
9.) 26 Sep 2025 22:49:51
How about Justin at RB and Bogle at RW?
10.) 27 Sep 2025 10:58:35
I know you keep banging that drum JR, and I totally agree with you on it! Just maybe not for this week if Boges is just back from a knock. I think it would be exciting attack wise, and a brick wall defensively! ????.
30 Aug 2025 14:27:20
Could see a move for Lois Openda in the coming days.
1.) 30 Aug 2025 15:40:59
Blinking Nora Alf what you been drinking? ??
Surely he’s outta our league?
Be nice end to the window him and Hamer on loans with obligation and sign Spertsyen.
17 Nov 2025 23:27:44
The ones already mentioned. Rodgers, CC, Carrick.
13 Nov 2025 09:41:06
apparently talks progressing well.
12 Nov 2025 11:44:07
And Michael Carrick.
11 Nov 2025 11:08:49
i can genuinely see that being in the monds of the 49ers joke or not. i don't think they are too fazed by relegation should it happen but would be looking to bounce back and we have a proven promotion specialist already.
10 Nov 2025 23:54:39
He is on thin ice but nothing from my sources saying it's imminent.
18 Nov 2025 13:17:20
We won't spend £30m on one player in Jan. That's our entire budget. What a signing it would have been in the summer though.
17 Nov 2025 07:40:00
Take care CA.
15 Nov 2025 21:27:07
Nice to hear from you again Matt. Glad you are doing well.
14 Nov 2025 14:50:45
it can take time for Bundes players to adapt to the EPL. Some of the players will be tired and Stach has been playing with an injury.
12 Nov 2025 12:59:52
In conclusion not too happy with the result then, Ed? Would you stick with Slot or a change now?
{Ed001's Note - I am honestly not sure. I hate the idea of not giving him time after he won the Prem last time, but his football is dire to watch and is not working. And he keeps going back to it, so it is clearly the way he wants us to play. So I am starting to teeter on the brink of wanting him out, though I normally prefer to be patient and give more time.}
