00:00Yeah, we ran a survey during the international break and hundreds of Leeds fans responded and the vast majority said staying up should be the aim.
00:08But there were almost a surprising number of people who said, no, the aim this season should be mid-table.
00:15There are people who have set that as their expectation.
00:18And I don't know if that's been partly informed by how competitive Leeds are, if they're just simply positive, optimistic people, if they're unrealistic, unreasonable tyrants.
00:29Like, I don't know what plays into that. But equally, you know, what they've seen from Farker in Act One, they like, you know, most people said he was performing above expectations or at expectations.
00:46And only a tiny, tiny fraction said he was performing below expectations.
00:49So, yeah, if he's kind of one of the good guys, one of the heroes and one of the protagonists, then people are enjoying what they're seeing from him.
01:01And also, I think he's learned. I think we're seeing him evolve as this kind of Act One goes on, because the team selection at Arsenal, the way they played at Arsenal, I think is very, very different from what we saw against Spurs at home.
01:19You know, the way that the team was set up, the team selection, how long they were going in the Bournemouth game and the Spurs game and playing somebody, speaking to someone in the club last week, and they were talking about, you know, finding the sweet spot to play survivor ball.
01:34You know, what the data and what the analysis says is the style that you need and the metrics you need to hit in order to stay up.
01:43And Leeds feel that they're progressing towards that pretty steadily.
01:47So, yeah, I think Act One has been very, very compelling.
01:54And I think the narrative is a pretty positive one.
