Strong rumour doing the rounds that Marathe approached Mourihno who turned him down.
I`m 50/50 wrt Farke.
On one hand he deserves a chance and the players seem to like him.
On the other hand he has tried and failed in the PL before without the financial backing.
We will find out by the end of November if it was a shrewd decision.

Can't see them looking at Mourihno, he doens't fit the way the club has been built to play football these last 6 years since Bielsa was hired. He totally changed the clubs philosophy and the fans love the possession based football that Farke has continued with (albeit a bit more reserved than Bielsa style), don't think the fans would put up with it, would be a bigger gamble imo. 


On another note, listened to a very interesting piece on Talksport from a football financial expert about the FFP impact on clubs coming up into the Prem. They are majorly hamstrung by the rules and the only way to get it changed is the PL clubs voting to change it, which won't happen as it would be Turkey's voting for Xmas... the rules are absolutely ridiculous and it's widening the gap between promoted teams and the established Prem teams. 


Leeds will need to do some very very smart recruitment. 

“Stop crying Frank Lampard”. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer bloke. Snidiest and most over rated player I’ve ever seen.

yeah hilarious. Sunderland were poor though weren't they, can't see them beating Wilder's bunch. 

sky comms were banging on about his tactical nous.
there one trick was get it wide right and hoof it in the box. they were comfortable knocking it about but offered little threat.


heard a rumour from someone who is normally spot on leeds are hoping to play A.C Milan at home in august
