It's actually getting painful at this stage.

He might have to be the new boss. I mean who’d have thought there could possibly be a problem with a work permit. After all Brexit wasn’t very well advertised

If people bring up Bielsa, in this case Mick did, with unsubstantiated attacks on his managerial capabilities then there is a need to defend those attacks. Sadly it seems to be the case that people feel they can say anything about Bielsa and have it as the 'truth' when it is often far from the case.

The question should be why are people continuing to have a go at Bielsa?

I just don't see why people need to talk about him on every thread.

He left a year ago.

He has his own thread if people want to talk about him.

Alex Ferguson isn't mentioned on threads daily on the Manure forum (not once today in fact).

Bielsa, about 8 times today here.

Can't people just keep it to 1 thread

[Cjay]

Looking less and less likely he will be officially in charge vs Southampton

At best he gets 1 day working with the squad assuming work permit comes tonight

Agree 100% Lets do what Cjay said. No one talks about him on any thread bar the one for him. Cant be that hard to do, and we can see how many really give a toss.

Morning everyone, hope you’re doing well. Here’s a short video breaking down everything you need to know about Javi Gracia and why I reckon he’ll ensure Leeds remain in the Premier League this season for those interested. While he may not be the most popular choice in the world, he might just be the most sensible in the short term given the circumstances. I’d love to hear your thoughts and am happy to answer any questions you may have, cheers!

Seems unless the club are keeping it secret Javi isn't our new boss and hasn't been able to work with the squad officially.

Frustrating.

The tweet that Michael Skubala is going to be in charge vs Southampton will go down like a wet fart.

Well this is the Leeds way, hardly surprising really. Not that it's going to make much of a difference, whether he's here or not.

[Jaydog]

Radz tweet?

Surely he can advise Skubala on any tweaks to the lineup/tactics. When is this committee likely to sit . Today?

[WhiteRose]

Rangnick had less FA criteria than Gracia yet his work permit was granted in about 4 days, why is this taking so long, he has a job, be getting paid lots of money and isn’t a criminal as far as I know.

Harsh assessment but probably true.
Kenny will especially enjoy the last paragraph.

[Kennyb41]

Going off our overall play v EFC it will make a massive difference if he's in charge or not, we were absolute garbage v EFC and might as well hand Soton the points now if Skubala sets us up not to lose again.

Massive.

[Kennyb41]

Yes, Kennyb41 did......and here is the said quote which makes Kennyb41 so happy that a journo unlike most Leeds Utd fans can see what a 'miracle' Bert did, and that Kennyb41 in his wisdom saw it from day dot with the 'miracle' performance in his very first 4-1 victory v Stoke in the Championship with players that no fcker else on zee planet earth could ever use, or turn into a 'football' team.

Mugs.


Nevertheless, relegation seems likely.

Gracia is a sound appointment; a considered halfway point between the chaos of Marsch and the brutal defensive style of a traditional survival expert. But Leeds are simply among the three worst teams in this division.

It took a miracle-worker in Bielsa to get them up and make them competitive. Gracia, like Marsch, probably won’t be able to reach those heights.

[Cjay]

Going into the Everton and Southampton game with a futsal coach in charge would be negligence of the highest order.

Yes we are just waiting on a work permit and Gracia can have some input but it isn't the same.

A mess totally of the making of the arrogant, delusional people we have in charge.

Hopefully Gracia comes out but it's looking less and less likely
