Tough to say who would be the right gaffer to take over from Warnock. I agree that Warnock has to go, but equally I agree that he was given little to no chance when he arrived at the club, and was no doubt messed about with lies and broken promises. Which makes me wonder who would be able to succeed at a club with such uncertainty behind the scenes?

Looking at the squad, what players would you take on for next season's promotion push? The obvious ones are Byram, Lees, Diouf and McCormack and I would also involve White (for his raw speed) and Ashdown (who's cup performances have been convincing). Other than that I say get rid! Not capable of carrying Leeds to the big time, and certainly not capable of performing in the Premier League! If I was a manager eyeing up the Leeds job, I would be asking myself these questions.

And lastly, I would love to see a manager at Leeds that has a BALL ON THE EFFIN FLOOR PHILOSOPHY! I am, as I'm sure all you guys are, fed up of craning my neck to see the ball lobbed up in the air. Adkins, Poyet, Di Canio and Di Matteo I feel can offer this, and at the end of the day it is a lot more effective than Warnock's hoof ball methods.

What do you say fellas, who would be the man to take our great club to where it belongs? MOT

Either of the Di's - Matteo or Canio for me - preference for Matteo for his experience of managing better, bigger ego players (slight worry Canios direct talking might put a few egos out of joint) but wouldn't mind either to be honest.

Aiden White has done sod all this year he is like Dracula with a cross, he might be quick but the lad just has not got what it takes, I don't know which games you have been watching but apart from one goal against Everton he been pretty crap. {Ed013's Note - The 4 games he played at LB prior to Warnock arriving he played well and was unlucky to be dropped}

Aiden White is just not consistent enough at the moment the only place he does show some promise is left back, but really does not show enough anywhere else on the pitch, he is fast but because of that he is much to light weight his distribution is poor and his crossing is woeful, and if you watch him closely he looses his orientation and his awareness of where he needs to be sorry but I think Stephen Warnock will be a better bet for the near future, like Eddie Gray keeps saying Aiden White will never be a forwardly mobile player even with his pace he has to be behind the play not actively moving forward that's why we need a winger in front of him to move the ball forward with quality the would give Aiden less to worry about and he would be able to concentrate and develop into the left back he promises to be.

Our squad is a decent championship squad we have just been playing a poor style of play and missing 2 proper wingers and a creative midfielder which we have Dawson if he finally gets a chance. Austin as been poor since just before he got injured but he has played over a full season already. We basically just need to make a few minor adjustments to the squad. The thing is when and Warnock arrived we needed to bring in a few players to finish the squad.
Manager that could do a job but unlucky for us is unavailable which is Dougie freedman.
If we sign Nigel Adkins I think he will change our style of play and do a good job

Well spotted ED - however as David O'Leary lives at Sickilinghall nr Wetherby its feasible he might use the train in Leeds - but clearly not on this occasion.

Did you hear about that guy who got a mangers job because he had 10 years experience on Football Manager (it was the top team in Azerbijan). Inthat case I should be manager, I will play the ball on the floor :).

In all seriousness Adkins would be decent but as people have said he needs money and won't get it. Di Matteo good too but from Champo League to Championship? I don't think it will flatter him.

I like the idea of Martinez to befair.

Di cnaio for the character but not proven at this level and was stabbed in the back at Swindon, he will be much worse off here

I certainly agree next year could be the year. Would also say that Peltier would be worth keeping. Austin just needs to get used to the english game and I think he would be a real great player. Need to see more from Morison, started poorly.
