Grayson,stay or go?,agree to go or disagree to stay,

Who would we replace him with though taking into account a certain Mr Bates? If we sack Grayson can we realistically get someone who is better - the likes of O'Neil wouldn't come - he can pick and choose and would be attractive to most premier league teams, he also walked out on villa as he wasn't getting backing from the board.

Realistically it would be a lower league manager with no track record in the championship and a huge risk. Grayson is the man in my opinion for the time being

O'Leary would jump at it
O'Neil would probably accept as he was going to be our manager before and he knows how big a club it is.
Hughes - would like the challenge of a reputable club with good prospects (and get one over on Ferguson)

O'Neil wouldn't jump at it, he walked out at villa cos the board and chairman wouldn't back him with transfers - we all know what bates is like so what's attractive at Leeds which would make him change his stance. He could also walk into most premier league teams and command a much bigger salary too.

Would love to see him at Leeds as I think he'd work wonders but it's simply unrealistic I'm afraid. O'Leary is possible as he's said he has unfinished business but what's he like when he hasn't got a decent budget - he didn't exactly sparkle at Villa when he went there.

If (and it's a big if) we got rid of Grayson, I think we need someone who has been there and done it in the championship and knows what it takes to get out of this league

If SG did go - which is unlikeley none of the above would take it as they would not want to work with Bates - end of!

Steve Coppell might be worth a shout, not that i think Graysom needs to go.

Dave jones?,billy davis?,not sure who would replace grayson but we can't keep going on like this, shipping goals like no tomorrow,just think grayson had nearly 3 years and still got the same problems on the pitch we had when he came,he seems to be clueless at times

Coppell I like - he's proven at this level time and again. Can't see Billy Davies coming - he's spouted how much he dislikes Leeds before. Dave Jones to be fair isn't bad but has he succeeded when he's had a very limited budget - he couldn't get Cardiff promoted even though they were spending

Could we maybe get a washing powder to sponsor our defence, anything to help us get some clean sheets.

GRAYSON OUT !!
READ HIS statement...........
Leeds United manager Simon Grayson has played down the possibility of an urgent leap into the emergency loan market by insisting his crop of defenders should be good enough to cure the club’s Achilles heel. Gj

How much time does grayson need to sort of the defence?,he's had nearly 3 years!.This surely shows that he ain't never gonna get it right at the back,also the cmf pairing needs to be stronger,clayton and vayrnen, should start the next game surely

SG is right. They should be good enough. They are proven CB`s at a good level. Why the they cant get it right at Leeds is troubling for SG and us due to no lack of effort from Leeds management am sure

Makes me laugh when i see his quote in the YEP tonight when he includes Bruce in the list of centre halves he's used - not this season he aint! if we can see that we need a right back and move Lees to CB/or get another CB in why cant he!

Worst thing to happen with Leeds is half time!

I seem to remember it being the best thing to happen in the Crystal Palace game.....all two halves are different that's football! Stupid post
