    As far as the Spygate thing is concerned Farke seems to be pretty clear .

    Norwich City went public to confirm they were one of 11 clubs who had written to the Football League asking for ‘full disclosure’ into Marcelo Bielsa’s bizarre admission he sanctioned widespread spying on his rivals.

    That sparked a furious response from a section of Leeds’ fans and led City to take extra security measures when it came to their Elland Road travel arrangements, but Farke insists it is background noise ahead of a massive duel.

    “It is not my topic. It doesn’t influence me or what I think. It has no meaning for us. I am not interested in what happens with them,” said Farke. “I do not judge how a coach prepares his team or whether it is right or wrong they are spying on the last session.

    I do understand totally why the club is asking the EFL to judge this.

    “You have to have a responsibility to your owners and supporters to find out if there is a behaviour which is acceptable or something which is allowed. It is quite normal a club asks a question without judging it.

    “Then it is up to the EFL or the FA to give an answer. If this is totally okay then you have to consider if any club can act in the same way. We have a responsibility to our fans.”

    Not me mate, I think you've played really good football on the occasions I've seen you. So have we, difference at the moment is you are putting your chances away and our goals have dried up (though 17 shots, 4 on target probably explains it).

    Didn't say you were 20%ability and 80% luck, i said teams need both and the luck that we had in certain games pre new year as deserted us whilst you continue to keep yours.... for now. No one is saying you're a poor team and just lucky, quite the opposite, since we beat you you've been in great form but you have to admit there as been luck as well as hard work along the way.

    I must have temporarily erased it from my memory. Wish I could erase their 3 instead.

    Apart from the first 15 minutes Leeds were by far the better side that day and deserved the win.

    Think krul had a bit of a mare that day that helped us... last week it was our turn to have the mares.

    Thought we actually looked the better side in the first half but went in 2-0 down... you were clearly the better side after the break.

    He seems to be saying that nobody knows if Leeds did anything wrong by spying on training sessions of rival teams.
    Most managers assume it's not allowed but clearly there isn't anything concrete .

    I don't think anyone is expecting any points deduction or punishment just clarity in the rules of conduct from the League or FA.

    That's my take on it anyway and I don't think most Norwich fans care .

    Everyone knows there is no rule against it so not sure why anyone is writing for clarification.

    Maybe the daft **** shouldn't have told Norwich that he sent people to spy on our training sessions then ?
    I believe the club are more concerned that our own staff are not giving away information or Leeds are sending people dressed as window cleaners with cameras in their buckets or something.
    If it's a closed doors training session then other teams should respect that and not sneak people in.

    What he was trying to gain by pulling this secret squirrel **** only he knows, you would learn more by watching us play on telly .

    Its all bollocks and nothing will come of it.

    No idea where your training ground is or how easily visible it is to watch them train. Already been proved that no one had entered Derby property (in fact Frank lied about the Police stopping their session), the guy stood in a public street and the session was in view of anyone that walked past. Hardly 'secret squirrel', he went in a car registered to LUFC <laugh>

    I honestly don't care or expect Leeds to be punished over this.

    If you win more games and acrew more points than all the other teams then your mad manager's weird antics won't matter..


    My only criticism is that he doesn't speak English In interviews which has always annoyed me with overseas coaches.

    Mate, I want to go up so bad I wouldn't care if we had a dead heat and we shared the bus top parade with you all the way from Norwich to Leeds, but there's still so much of the season left.

    Exactly, there is only 10 points between 1st and 7th and we are 5 points ahead of 3rd .

    I am enjoying the ride so far and long may it continue.
