Mornin peeps. Well, it's a bit of a head scratcher, but from what I have gathered it seems the power in the board don't trust DF. They tried to replace but their preferred options wouldn't come so have decided to continue but they haven't backed DF fully. This probably explains the lack of big money signings and the PR statements claiming they are happy with recruitment and none in January, PSR etc. What about Leeds Inited chaps? Side before self? If their preferred options wouldn't come on the wave of promotion I very much doubt they are going to come if we end up back in the Champo, then who you going to call, oh yeah, the guy you sacked! It's all Very Leedsy. Now I don't know if this is the true situation, I very much hope not, but if it is DF is a dead man walking and they are just cutting off their nose to spite their face. Bizarre!

I think trust among most Leeds fan with the 49’s and Paraag has been broken.
The latest statement from Kinnears replacement is that we maxed out PSR, and if Paxo Stuffing, Wilson etc came then we would have to have sold players. Absolute bollox in my opinion, where are the parachute payments, where is the £150m from last years sales, shirt sales etc, surely the club wasn’t in sooo much financial trouble that these incomes went to satisfy just PSR.
We have been fed so many lies from Paraag and company, and I agree with you Vid, I think they are thinking about their own pockets ahead of Leeds and purposely not backed Farke, so it’s easier to sack him, then they will probably bring in some cheap option!
Still annoyed about Transfer Deadline Day.

Interesting post Vid.
Let's hope for the sake of the club its not true.
But with our history of owners anything is possible: (.

Agree vid and I posted similar about getting a good manager as champions of champ v bottom of prem. Impossible.
They have seemingly decided to try and shift him now and set him up to fail. As they said in their statement after window shut. They have achieved their goal in the window to improve the core and that farkes team has been backed.
Don’t trust them, don’t trust their ability, don’t trust their judgement. We will end up with Jose or 10c. Heaven forbid.
Very strange times. Clearly a rift.

It does make you wonder after that patronising interview yesterday.
04 Sep 2025 10:09:26
Vid! Easy with the conspiracy theories and scary facts, we’ve only just got Aus settled back down again.

Aye guys. The ludicrous thing is it makes no sense! Surely the only thing to do is decide on a course of action and follow it. Half hearted efforts never succeed. So, when these rumours came out before we even finished the season they should have either made sure they followed through with them OR thrown their weight fully behind DF. Gawd knows what DF and the squad make of it but the uncertainty has to have an effect and ultimately it will be LUFC that suffers again.

Intriguing post Vidster!

Well Bright indeed it gets more baffling the more comes out, like we have been told money for the likes of Paixo, Muniz or another striker would have meant sales needed but they didn't get the offers they hoped, but now we are told we blocked offers for Struijk, Ao and Piroe! Surely cash inat least Piroe for a striker, like for like? Or cash in on Pascal as we have cover now? It's a bit contradictory!

Also strange we bid over 7 million for the Fulham lad at the last minute despite being at the PSR max?
Definitely some porkies being fed to us fans.

Probably expectations of post UK window closure sales to Turkey, et al, Corkey, and if not, then a sale in January to offset the outlay.
No porkies. They would be caught bang to rights in 9 months time!

Exactly Corkey. He speaks with forked tongue.
