This is what the knitting pattern looks like when #lufc go through managers.
Expecting, if not now hoping for, 'greys' soon but let's get it right and avoid the mess we had last time (2022/23)...

Daniel Farke had worse Premier League starts with Norwich City - the first season ending disastrously before bringing them straight back up for another go... but despite finally winning at Brentford he didn't make it to 'Matchday 12' in his second top flight campaign...

Records updated but nobody needs it highlighting what a poor picture they portrait!
5 Leeds defeats in 6 games, including 2 of last 3 at #EllandRoad; 2 home wins in 6 not good.
Aston Villa bossing the head-to-head.
United not too great on recent matchday 12.
Every past promoted #lufc started better!

107 without a red card back to Rodon (the last United outfield player).
58 at #EllandRoad since an #lufc sending off (Firpo).

And to the MATCHDAY spotlights for Daniel Farke & the Leeds squad's experiences facing Aston Villa.
The United boss had mixed results against the Villans while at Norwich City; the players too, with few clocking up goals v #avfc in their careers.
👀 Darlow clean sheets!

MATCHDAY #factfiles for Leeds against old foes Aston Villa at #EllandRoad.
Low scoring draws a feature in our past, but United have edged league stats.
(Noting our only game facing Unai Emery ended in a 1-2 defeat at Villa Park in January 2023.)

Drafted the factfiles and matchday gubbins for this weekend and noticed something about '23rd November' in Leeds United history.......... every game played at fortress #EllandRoad on that date has resulted in a home win!
No pressure, then, #lufc 😅

Basic records updated - leaving the technical & tactical interrogations to the stats experts. But all reflect a worrying outcome from United's latest defeat.
As last week, my only positive being the fact Leeds have played 90 games since having a player sent off; 107 since an outfield red card.

Among their goals v #nffc, the Gray siblings scored in all 3 clashes of 1978; Frank in 2 & Eddie 1 of them.

And to the MATCHDAY spotlights for Daniel Farke & his Leeds squad against Nottingham Forest.
The boss lost his first but has been unbeaten since against them with Norwich.
Several United players to face #nffc for the first time. Overall not many goals scored yet by the current #lufc crop.

Strange times at the City Ground - in Europe after flying high last season, but already on to their third manager of the current campaign - Sean Dyche back in the familiar relegation zone! 😅

MATCHDAY focus on previous 9th Novembers for Leeds. Not such a bad day, just a shame we aren't playing at #EllandRoad, unbeaten in 8 at home #OnThisDay!
Hat-tricks, penalties & own goals scored in United's favour - and no sending offs.
Can #lufc maintain this impressive long run without a red card?

Look at some of these Leeds United away travel prices from 1988/89.
£15.50 to the south coast and on Saturday just gone, Brighton cost us just three times as much on LUSC Griffin!
Others would cost more than a multiple of 3 nowadays - especially Shrewsbury!

Daniel Farke yet to win against Brighton (in 4), or see one of his teams register a goal against them!
United have had better (& worse) starts in the last 10 seasons!
89 games played since Leeds saw a red card and 106 for an outfield player sent off...

Before any of us had heard of PSR or player amortisation here are the Leeds United Director’s Report & Accounts for 1978. Gate receipts break through the £1M mark for the previous season (my season ticket contributing £22 to that number!). #lufc #mot
