Appointment seems to be going well, anyway.

I dobthink hes pissed when he starts saying hes the best manager in the universe. Perhaps i misinterpreted it and he was talking about football knowledge, in any case hes on the wacky backy and has a very high opinion of himself.

Lets hope so, I've just got this horrible feeling he only jumped at it as a payback to us...
( He probably only needs 1 win for that )

He doesn’t care about us, he cares about himself and the cash dollar.

He’s a smart manager. Lots of criticism about the players as of late, so he’s now got everyone talking about him.

Leeds fans think they have a chance now he is there and think they can get something from city

I’ve thought about this…
There’s no way this washed up egotist gets anything out of Leeds. In fact, I’m confident that this has pretty much consigned them to the drop. Which I think pretty much means we stay up. It will be tight the last couple of games and we need to hang on in there, but I think this is the nail in their coffin and our redemption

I can't call it to be honest. I'm not sure 4 games is enough for him to really change things and the way Leeds play and defend is engrained in these players, it will take several months to truly change the mindset and mentality but that new manager bounce may be enough to get them over the line.
He has a free hit against City so if they get a spanking he can claim he hasn't had time to drill the players and all that but I tell you now, if they continue to defend like they have he'll throw them under the bus and that can only be a good thing for us.

Yet he kept us up. Did his job for us. Too late for Leeds though

wasn't like we where under serious threat considering we were in 13th place

This game is all about front. He has to walk in their and make the Leeds team believe in him 100%.
Saying that the guy is clearly in love with himself…

He'll get them at least 4 points IMO.

Which puts us in trouble

Love or loathe him, thank God they didn't hire him a month ago because he's very good at what he does (normally).

Everybody knows the style Allardyce likes to play, everybody also knows the style that Leeds like to play. What we don't know is how well Allardyce can get Leeds to play his style, because they are wildly different.

The only new Manager's bounce they will get is when he falls over & bounces back up from his stomach lol

He had that problem at West Brom too who had been playing Billics zonal marking, play out from the back style with no CF, The players found it hard to adapt to Allerdyce's direct style. In the end think Allerdyce gave up trying to adapt his style, bought Matieus Periera back into the team and let them play to his strengths. In return we beat Chelsea 5 2 away, Wolves 3 2 and Southampton 3 0, in the end we ran out of games and it was too late.
