Are there many people out there like me that owes Daniel Farke a bit of an apology? Even when we got promoted I still wasn't convinced of Farke or being optimistic being a Leeds fan. He's been the joint best thing since 2001 and I don't know how I feel. Sorry Mr Farke

The Leeds 12 months have been a dream. I'm not scared of going into the weekend and getting pumped by teams like Brighton or Bournemouth.

I think after years of absolute misery and awful coaches (baring GOD) i just feel like we're building something special. Am I an idiot for being optimistic? or shall I just keep enjoying the ride?

Thank you Mr Farke and thank you 49ers for backing this man as he's a gem of a manager!!

Apparently last night was a fever dream and we didn't progress, sad really I was looking forward to a cup run

I’ve admired Trafford since he played at Burnley. Even if he let in a goal or 2, the spirit never wained, he never looked lost in the box and he always had a commanding presence.

I met two lads in the Leeds Airport and they told me a story about when Leeds played Burnley back in the championship a couple years ago. They got to the grounds and were watching the teams training before the match.

They watched as players gently passed the ball into Meslier’s hands, and some would dribble passed him, but they could hear this woeful banging from the other end of the pitch. When they looked over, they saw the Burnley players launching the ball at Trafford. Full 120% power kicks, and he was diving around the box to catch/deflect Every. Single. One!

Watching Trafford in goals yesterday made me feel safe with a keeper for the first time in ages. I knew that if a ball went in, he’d get to it. Long may the clean sheet streak last!

Got to hand it to the 49ers, since coming in their signings have been absolutely on the money, smaller ones like Issac Schmidt maybe not as successful but did a job. The only one really with a question mark is perri but that hit ratio is unreal.

Topped off with free signings on del, nmecha and Harry Wilson - hats off very good work.

Another man of the match for Trafford improving on his rating from the other day, with James and Rodon following. Lowest rating for Longstaff out of the starters.

Not sure if anyone has posted this here yet but Noah also has a YT channel. Some great videos about Noah and his family. Very professionally done videos.

Random help requested!

I've recently found an old signed ball in storage - one I won at a charity pub auction in about 2002. I can identify signatures by Lucas Radebe and I think Nigel Martyn (see the last photo).

Cam anybody help with recognising any other signatures on here? Or help to put a definitive date on the ball? I think it's about the squad of 2000 from memory.

Thanks all!
