Apparently Jaap Stam can't be sacked because we'll break FFP regulations otherwise. Ron Gourlay wants to make his mark and bring in a new coach but they are hampered by these financial restrictions.

Better get used to watching this boring dull football for the rest of the season then. Surely if we lose to Hull Saturday he will be sacked. Mind you i thought the same after we lost to Birmingham last week.

Paul Lambert got the Stoke job. Nothing against the guy at our level but Stoke must be desperate. Then again they've been turned down by Rowett, Flores and O'Neill...

Footballs just ridiculous now, no one gets any time and Leeds should surely have learned by now that constantly sacking the manager isn't the answer.

I assume they've got someone out of work lined up as any decent Manager that's in a job won't touch Leeds as they'll be sacked by the start of next season.
Daft decision!

Just a tad hasty Gene. I still say, Wolves apart, Leeds are the best Championship side I've seen at the Gate this season, they battered us so Christensen can't have been far away from getting it right.
Would Grayson be accepted? Seems a bit of a 'meh' appointment given where the owners expect the club to be.

Big Leeds fan, did a great job before in difficult circumstances, fans still love him.

A rather sharp contrast in their approaches to how the game should be played!

Warnock signs a 2 year extension, so much for wanting to retire after one last promotion.

Clever from Warnock. He get's Cardiff promoted and then get's sacked next January with a nice payoff to head into retirement with.

Hopefully we sack Holloway soon. Constantly playing the wrong tactics and trying to get round pegs in square holes.

352 when we don't have any wingers will never work. He bought wingers yet doesn't play a system to play them. Keeps playing Washington up front despite him being constantly poor.

Get him out, get someone in who will play players in the right position. I know we are re building and have no money etc, but there must be someone out there who is working their way up through the leagues that could get this team performing better.

35 defeats in 75 games or something like that. 9 clearn sheets. 3 away wins in 18 months.

Paul Hurst if Shrewsbury don't go up, he should be in demand.

We tried with Jimmy Floyd Hassellbank but he had such a boring way of playing. Plus, being ex Chelsea he was never going to get the backing of the fans unless he got us in the play offs.

Holloway is doing worse than him but has been given longer before the fans turned. 90% of fans on a popular QPR forum want him out now.

Gareth Ainsworth.

Gareth Ainsworth.

He would be well received at QPR. Linked with Shaun Derry too. Not sure what style of football either play but as long as it isn't hoof ball or playing for 0-0 then it will be an improvement.

I think Ainsworth has had stick from Wycombe fans for negative tactics in the past but has reverted away from it this season.
