Leeds United fans saw a huge show of spirit this week, and now even big pundits are stepping in.
In the latest Gary Neville news, the former Manchester United star has told the 49ers Leeds board to “rip up” any plan of removing the manager.
The pressure around Leeds United Daniel Farke has been strong in the past month, with talks everywhere about Daniel Farke being close to losing his job.
Many reports even said the boss could be Daniel Farke sacked soon if the results didn’t change. But after a strong week on the pitch, everything now looks different.
Leeds Show Fight When It Matters Most
Leeds United were in real trouble after losing SIX out of seven matches.
The team dropped into the bottom three, confidence was low, and many fans feared the worst. But everything changed with two big games at Elland Road.
First, Leeds beat Chelsea 3-1 in a strong performance. Then, against Liverpool, the team showed huge heart to come back from behind twice and finish with a dramatic 3-3 draw.
The point pushed Leeds up to 16th place with 15 points from 15 matches, a massive lift for the team and for Farke.
This strong response has now changed the mood around the club. The players looked hungry, the crowd was loud, and for the first time in weeks, there was a bit of hope again.
Gary Neville Backs Daniel Farke to Stay

On his Sky Sports podcast, Gary Neville sent a clear message to the Leeds board. He said Leeds should not be thinking about sacking Farke after such a big week.
Neville said the manager “played a big part” in the comeback performances and that the 49ers should now “cancel” any plans they had to remove him.
Neville believes these two results indicate that the team still has confidence in their manager. He also said that when a team fights this hard, it means something is working behind the scenes.
This public backing is huge, especially when rumours about Daniel Farke news have been spreading all over social media.
The 49ers ownership group now has a big decision to make. And right now, Neville thinks the answer is simple, stick with Farke.
Farke Praises Leeds Spirit and Elland Road Crowd
After the 3-3 thriller against Liverpool, Farke spoke with real pride. He said Elland Road was “rocking like no other ground” and praised the fans for pushing the team forward.
He also said his players “never know when they’re beaten,” which showed how much he trusts their mentality.
Leeds went 2-0 down early, then 3-2 down, yet still found a way to grab a point. Calvert-Lewin, Anton Stach and Ao Tanaka got the goals, and the whole team showed huge effort all night.
Farke did warn, though, that this is only the start. He said Leeds must “win many more points,” and nothing is done yet.
But he agreed that it was an “important week” and a big confidence boost.
Tough Games Ahead for Leeds
Leeds now travel to Brentford next Sunday, then face Crystal Palace at home and Sunderland away.
These matches will decide if Leeds can build on this momentum or if pressure will rise again.
For now, though, one thing is clear, Daniel Farke has earned more time. The fans are behind him, the players are fighting for him, and even big voices like Gary Neville are telling the board to trust him.
The next few weeks will show whether this strong spirit can push Leeds out of danger for good.
