“ It was a Scandal Says Leeds Manager “

Daniel Farke:

“To be honest I’m really disappointed in the end,” said Farke after the 2-2 draw. “When you judge the game in an obvious way, by looking at the statistics, it’s a scandal that we didn’t win the game.”

“We dominated and took the game to Cardiff for the major of the game.”

“In the second half in particular, there was only one team playing and chasing for everything. It was looking like a power play at times, but we just couldn’t get the second goal we were looking for.”

“I just have to praise and compliment the lads, though. They’ve all put in a terrific shift. For us to go and equalise in the 95th minute after taking so many things in the neck, well, that just shows the character out there.”

“It was a really important point for the confidence and the spirit, and we have to move on to the next game positively.”

True but we defended well, took a lucky double bounce for them to get a clear chance

Spot on.

He's just covering his own back because their fans expected to beat us easily and in the end were celebrating a draw.

I seem to remember similar comments from Dean Smith after the opening game last season, we all know how that ended for him.

And if maybe Ralls and Rambo had stayed on longer they wouldn’t have dominated so much and would have lost…all ifs and buts

Hi Daniel, would you like some bitter lemon to wash down those sour grapes? Farke You.

It is football these things happen. Football is one of the few teams sports where the best team on the day does not always win
Except it and move on

If his team could defend for toffee then maybe they wouldnt have conceded 2 goals.

Winning football games isn't all about possession and number of shots.

Yeah I remember that, the big headed, clueless, gob shite kept saying in his post match interviews ( the next two games ) they should have put six on us. It was just a matter of time before he was sacked, and when he was I was :,””:*** delighted

Scruffy b*stard needs to go and have a wash and a shave to help get the shit out of his eyes. You can have all the possession in the world but the team that puts the ball in the net the most, wins - simple as - and Leeds didn't put the ball in the net more than we did - in fact they were extremely lucky to do it the same number of times as we did! As GrangeEnd has colloquially put it - Farke you Daniel!!

Never liked Farke to be honest, and doesn’t surprise me he’s come out with comments like that.

The guy is an arrogant gobshite. Rather than saying you should have slammed us, why doesn’t he take a look at his team, and work out what went wrong!

The relief on his players faces and the disappointment on ours , tells the real story . The only scandal is that they robbed two points of us , with a lucky bounce !

A Leeds Utd Manager happy to get away with a draw - Now knowing the task ahead ...Giving it the Spin ;)

The only scandal was hearing the crowd belting out "Marching on Together" as if they had won the match after they had just scraped a very late draw against a team they had clearly written off as soon as the fixtures were released. A bit embarrassing in my opinion.
