3 points friday night for us. Burnley players have given up, manager gone, they will set up differently than under Parker and it will be easily for us to score. A clean sheet for us and 2 or 3 goals. Cannot wait
Leeds need a great summer 2026 with outgoings and incoming players

Can envision it already, the caretaker thumping the air, hugging the players, saluting the away fans as the ref blows the whistle on a 0-1 win.

Seems daft to me. Next seasont hey will be a championship club. If you draw up a shortlist of managers to almost guarantee you promotion then Farke and Parker would be the top 2 - so why sack someone who is proabbly the safest bet to get you back up?

Seems like it’s mutual rather than a sacking. Parker will back himself as a good manager, he just won’t see Burnley as a club likely to provide the platform for success he wants and I think that’s fair.

A change is as good as a press

Burnley had begun finding a new coach and assistant Mike Jackson would be interim for the last four games in the league.

Throws our game against them wide open IMHO. Just about anything could happen but some are already counting their chickens. Bit premature if you ask me.

Leeds United are the first team in 500 years to face new managers in consecutive games

Calamity!!! oh no it is written in the stars, it's another new manager bounce. How can we survive... it is the universe conspiring against us. These things come in threes believe me, if the next team we play loses their manager we're doomed, we're doomed I say.😂😅🤪

Oh s**t!
Didn’t know Parker was sacked.
Ah well. They may be worse.

This game reminds me of the Barnsley at home during lockdown situation.

Let's hope ogy has his shooting boots on.
