Di Canio appointed at Sunderland! Inspired choice imo, I think he will keep them up personally!

Glad he's taken - he's a rabid facist and all-round lunatic. Last thing we need.

at least he would have got rid of that other milliband loser brother from supporting us. such a shame at least we would have heard it from the horses mouth instead of 10yrs of b/s.

Could you honestly imaging DiCanio in charge of us, with the sh{t that we give our managers. With his temper and the way some of our fans are he'd be scrapping with our fans withing two months.

Di Canio is not mad, he is passionate, driven and a winner. He would have given it to us straight and sorted out anyone not pulling their weight. Good luck to him at Sunderland!

Oneill a has been. Get in an old Leeds boy. Sheridan or Oleary. We got no money so appointing a "top" manager won't matter. Get in one someone who can bring on the kids. It's the only way. It's the way we did it before if you think about it.

Agree mate! I have a feeling Sheridan could be the man for us. don't really know why as his record is only average. However he's started off at smaller clubs and given the chance could be our saviour. Dramatic I know but his teams play good football and he will let the young players shine if they are good enough. I posted a few days back about getting the buzz back at ER and John Sheridan I believe is the man to start it all off!
What have we got to lose? Another boring year with Warnock. ONeils teams not much better. Poyet can't do it with a much bigger budget at Brighton. I really believe Shezza got unfinished business at ELLAND ROAD. MOT.

I agree - what about Neil Redfearn he's done it before? Or Richard Naylor?

And, as I've already said, I will go myself and get Poleon back and please can Ashdown have a go?

Here we go with the old boys again, Oleary maybe, Sheridan no, what's he done as a manager, that's right f-ck all, Oneila past it, be better with Macdermot or Coyle.

I would not take Sheridan if he offered to pay us, he might of had a gift as a footballer but as a manager and a person he falls very, very short.

I think the first thing a new manager is going to have to do is sign a new quality striker and also bring poleon in to the team. I think a new creative cm needs to be signed and young Chris Dawson may need to be sent out on loan for a few months unless he shows something special in pre season.
A new winger with pace is a must and hall needs time on the pitch as well.
I think a new cb is needed as well as Pearce and Peltier will make mistakes that will cost us points.
I think the likes of cairns and Taylor should be at the club playing cup games.
No chance of that happening and morison can't be dropped he's still putting in a lot of running and getting in the right positions he just needs to get some luck on his side.

GFH should go now there are as bad as Bates. Why would we be doing so bad I know because of the lack of backing the manager with money.

31 Mar 2013 18:03:46
Gfh are doing a good job. They have only been owners since just before Christmas. They have gotvthings moving in the right direction.
What chance have they really had?
I think they give Warnock money in January but he was unable to find a player he wanted other than Boyd who was over priced by 1.5 million.
Wood was asking too much for wages.
I think we will see quite a few changes to the squad to free up wages in the summer

Stop talking rubbish warnock is the one to blame the man is clueless

How the hell do u know that they haven't even been with us for a season.

31 Mar 2013 15:07:39
Di Canio on his way to Sunderland.

31 Mar 2013 13:24:42
if Biggest Leeds Fan Ever Haigh decides what we really need is an ex Manchester United player and failed manager to take us up, i'm done with this club.

31 Mar 2013 12:09:04
Please stop saying bad luck etc. good teams draw or win with 10 men, not fall apart. Good teams have strikers that score midfielders that can pass and goal keepers that can catch. Good teams have good players. Good teams get promoted and finally good teans have a good manager. So. Nothing to do with bad luck. We are crap ( at the moment).

For the first time this season I have to agree that now IS the time for Warnock to be gone, but only when we find a decent manager, maybe fortune is smiling, O'Neill has just become available.

31 Mar 2013 11:24:09
Well if you look at the start of the Ipswich game, it is clear to see that the team isn't that bad after all. It does look like we at least have a core squad that are good enough to do well in this league. Strangely, I do agree with Warnock in that we only really need 3-4 quality players for us to push on next season, and although Warnock's tactics are outdated and useless, I do think the players we have are capable of getting promoted, if that little bit of quality were injected into the team. The one think we can thank Warnock for is laying the foundations for next year. MOT

I was quite willing to let GFH have time to show us what there intensions are, but to keep in employment this absolute oaf of a manager is beyond me, I am not angry anymore just bemused.
ED I was the one who said, that Warnock stated openly that he hated Leeds and he is here as a swan song to cause as much harm as he could to Leeds as he is a Shefffiel utd fan, you poo pood this as a nonsence. MMMmmm rethink time. {Ed013's Note - That is your conspiracy, many people hate Leeds, but he is a professional}

I would hardly call what warnock has done while at Leeds serious damage, flirting with the play offs all season! Think u need a rethink and ed is right conspiracy theory.

When have we flirted with the play offs???? we are closer to relegation

First reply? what would you call it? I for one am not happy am I on my own????

First reply' glad your happy with what youve got. I am not. explain yourself orr arte you related to colin or ken? both winkers:o)

First post. grayson got sacked for being a manager of a better footballing team with better goal difference and more points why are you licking the arsenal of warnock from day one he has failed to deliver his promisses but blamed everyone else are you actuallty a Leeds fan??????

Professional what Ed? Certainly not management {Ed013's Note - End of the day he wanted an 8th promotion, we don't know what has gone on behind closed doors}

31 Mar 2013 11:33:01
got to disagree ed colins a total amatuer. 25wins in 64 games nearly every manager sacked this seasons done better than colin and how many of the 25 wins have we been luckey to win. he talks a great game.
gaz1966 {Ed013's Note - I agree his record is poor, he wouldn't have down that on purpose though}

ED any professional knows when it is time to go.
This is not my conspiracy mine would have us in the prem challenging for europe or at the very least know what to do with substitutes and ensure everyone plays with heart
that is what I conspire {Ed013's Note - Let's see what he has to say when he leaves}

Kevin Leeds 50 years here again.
I was at Ipswich yesterday, OK results mean everything in this league, but the first 30 mins of that game the gulf between the two sides was massive, the passion we showed, the movement, the football we played and the chances we created was fabulous, do you know we had 11 shots within that period to Ipswich one. YES I know, am I picking at straws? well I don't think so I have mentioned in previous posts that if this team was starting the season now we would run away with it, the only thing that is not happening at the moment is Lady Luck and putting these dam chances away in front of goal. NW no matter what the crap wagon brigade say does get his team eventually playing some good stuff and the togetherness is there to be seen. Well I appreciated the effort from yesterday and was quite optimistic, I know you CB club will tear into me but what I have said is true.
My thoughts on Martin O'Neil well if NW does go let's start a petition to get this guy in, he wanted this job before O'Leary, he will snap our hands off I am sure. So bombard this web site with posts for O'Neil to become next manager, forget about others, please for god sake as mentioned in other posts that Mark Hughes is available, I will die if he is offered this job. It's without doubt O' Neil for me, with our current squad and his additions we will destroy this league, trust me.
Again I await the crap Brigade to tear into me, don't worry I am thick skinned, but I do talk sense, unlike you lot.
Kevin Leeds 50 years

Never mind crap brigade! Your spot on pal. Mot.

It's not that the fans don't talk sense, I've been to 25 games this season and the football has been average at best, 30mins at Ipswich does not make up for what I would describe as the worst Leeds team I have seen since relegation from the Prem, Managers are judged by results and success and neither are imminent with Warnock in charge, the team itself is average and even the most loyal of fans have had enough.

Martin Oneil promised Peter Risdale he would take us over than went back on his word and jumped ship. ONCE YOU HAVE TURNED LEEDS DOWN NO SECOND CHANCE. {Ed013's Note - That isn't what happened, O'Neill didn't realise he was stepping on another managers toes so said no to the job because he was lied to}

31 Mar 2013 08:34:56
What an awful season this has been, when you look at where we are now, we could be dragged into rel fight
Its all warnocks fought. Many many decent players moved about this season and we bought the crap ones. Then it turns out warnock can't motivate the crap he bought in and dosent even play some if them. Then he slags off the players in public and tells everybody how good he is and what a great job he has done. The players dobt give a rubbish now vecause they know they'll be gone soon. How can gfh let it go this far? i'm really worried that they believe him. Youd think theyd want to protect their inveztment and get rid of him and team. As it stands we could poss be relegated. Who can we beat in this league? They are doing good things as well but their football acumen is seriously floored. Get him out and we may win a few.

New Manager - at last Martin O`Neill is available.
No questions lads let�s bring him in.

31 Mar 2013 13:20:03
easily the best manager available can't believe people disagreeing

31 Mar 2013 00:24:12
Not a rumour but a circumstance - O Neill and Warnock to "swap" jobs?
NW could be wanted by Sunderland to rescue their PL status, going nowhere at Leeds. O Neill was a wanted managerial candidate for Leeds a few years ago. Swapping jobs now maybe good for both clubs. Warnock to fill a short term gap at Sunderland to try to keep them in the Prem Lge - O Neill to make an early start at Leeds to assess the squad in preparation for next season.

Who knows?

GET HIM IN NOW!!!!!

31 Mar 2013 00:05:45
Is it "mathematically impossible" yet?
