Don't give him a ferking gig ffs, in his dotage he needs to be after dinner speeches.

Haven't watched it yet but if anyone wants to hear Allardyce speak here is his podcast
"How many games do you think would have given you a realistic chance?"

"Realistically when they gave the chance to Garcia [not Gracia] that would have been enough"

That'll do for me. If we are likely to hire a permanent manager without an original thought in his head, we don't need to be bled dry while we're at it. :)

That's one good verdict, hope we follow that one up with some top innovative decisions.

Don't believe anything yet but if it's down to Kinnear we'll get fobbed off with Gerrard or Carlos Corberan.

This is positive news.

Let’s get ownership sorted before we move on. So hurry up, 49ers.

I would put a small bet on SA saying on his next “look at me everyone’” podcast that he decided he didn’t want the job and it was a mutual agreement. Then he will say what a fantastic club Leeds is but there is too much turmoil behind the scenes. The reality is he would have jumped at the chance if the job had been offered.

Anyone who has confidence in themselves as a manager .... If I were a manager I'd want it, it's in much better nick now than when Marcelo the Great took over

I agree but they'll be the usual dross names linked that know they can squeeze a few quid out of us, we just gave Sam Rollthedice 500k for 4 games, he's now gone. I'm not sure we are going to get a top tier name but hope springs eternal.

Adam Pope just tweeted.
“An announcement on a new Leeds United head coach will be made in the coming weeks.”

WEEKS?

Agreed Leon,

Booting Allardyce and Orta are first steps.

The bigger issue is that Radz is staying.

So, I'd expect a guy with no footballing acumen to continue to make poor decisions.

We don't know the half of what's going on Leon, but the fact that Radz seemed happy for a jerk like Orta to be delegated to make all footballing decisions speaks volumes for me.

I'm very worried about what's coming up. We have a lot of business to take care of over the next two months, and like our players, Radz and Kinnear have shown that they disintegrate under pressure and meekly surrender.

I don't like watching our decline, but it does give me great pleasure that we are now seeing Radrizzani unmasked for the leech of a charlatan that he is. Things are gonna get very nasty and personal for him if he keeps running our club into the ground.

Radz out.

I know :shock:

I'm really concerned about the way our club is being mismanaged.

Bear in mind the new fixtures are released on June 22nd and the new season starts on August 4th, and other than telling Big Sam to do one :tup: we've got a mountain of business that needs sorted out.

The clock's ticking Radz, so instead of sitting on your phone sending inane tweets to our fanbase and looking for the next club that you can suck the life out of, get Leeds United's business sorted out now you parasite :x

He's quoting Angus Kinnear who put that statement out. Really bothered me too. It just goes to show that there's no leadership or plan in place. By "weeks" he's probably saying that it's not his call and he has to wait for stuff to be sorted out in the boardroom.

That's thebproblem we are going to have it doesn't who the f**king manager will be it could be the best in the world. But leeds don't have the f**king funds to back a manager so therefore we are up the creek without a paddle. You just can't get a coach/manager and expect a dof or kinear to dictate the f**king in coming it just ain't going to happen because they will be puppets on strings. So forget moving forward what we need is radzs f**king out kinear out 49ers out and someone with money to take us other otherwise we will be stuck in the championship for a long f**king time again with at least 3 or 4 managers coming in 1 season.it is a desperate state we are in and it's not looking good at all.

👍

We might not be stuck in the Championship Scooby, League One beckons if Radz stays in charge.

I'm skeptical about the motives of the 49ers too.

It's a proper s**t show.

Kinnear is just an employee, albeit a minion with a director's role, he really has no power to come out with any statements, obviously it was handed to him by above by Radz who is still hiding under his bed.
