Surely Warnock will be sacked in the next few days, Not one corner, Not one shot of target against the bottom team in the league.
Your doing a great job ?
Get real
Statement after the game from Warnock
I think I'm doing a great job if I'm honest and with one or two additions that I've got lined up... I understand their [the supporters'] disappointment but we know we need to strengthen."

I'm sorry but I was a big Warnock fan but today above all else he has proved he's a dinosaur and this is confirmed by Neil's No2 who appears to be in a different time-zone. Strachan please!!!
Agree0
Disagree1
He sounds like Ridsdale
Agree0

Strachan !!!! he's done nothing anywhere he's been !!!
Agree1

Strachan would be if anything worse than Warnock -similarly full of bluster and continuous exasperation. Poor track record except for a couple of years in the Scottish Sunday League, and most importantly a disaster in this league with Boro. Poyet please! A positive manager capable of building for the long term. Chapel A
Agree0

Yeah, done nothing that Strachan. Only won Scottish cups as player and manager, European cup winners cup as a player, the last English League cup before the Premier League and got a financially troubled club to the last 16 of the champions League.... done nowt anywhere he's been.
Unfortunately, Celtic experience did seem to burn him a bit. Watch what he does as Scotland manager

Now some of you lot might see why attendances are down so much, why should folk use money they haven't got supporting a team that are like bleach in the eye! I I get we should back them but they have to play some attractive stuff first I'm afraid! Not said this before but today has broke the camels back, warnock out! It's simple, but players shoe heart so will fans

A truly shocking display and made that bit worse its come against a struggling side who prop up the rest of the championship. Have to say that i was even more dissapointed with Warnocks post match reaction as he once again defended his strange tactical changes, 7 in total, including 800k lee peltier our captain at left back. quite bizarre what's unfolding at elland road. we need a mix up and start to plan 2 or 3 seasons ahead, quick promotions are not the way forward any how. could you see us staying up if we got promoted? do me a favor! on yer bike Warnock!

Im hearing Norwich are closing in on Becchio, sources close to me are saying the price will be around 3-4 mil. Becchio has had his head turned recently over transfer speculation and it looks like he could be on his way. Wigan also linked to the Leeds striker

We will let him go for £1-2mliion not 3 or 4.

Its only a couple of months ago we were all slating becchio. Let him go to Norwich but Morison must be part of deal. Excellent tough championship striker.

How about a shot at the big time with us

I'm afraid I have to agree with the people that are saying it's time for the manager to go.
It depends how ambitious the new owners really are. If they want us to finish mid table with poor football keep him, if not then it's time to look elsewhere.
Sorry Neil you may be able to manage your magic at one last club and get that promotion you crave but I can't see it happening for you here.
Gotta be Poyet (if we can get him) if not, i'm sure Lambert will be free from Villa pretty soon.

Martinez for me. Coyle and Poyet also good options.

I would have maybe forgiven Warnock of he had come onto the radio and said he'd locked the Team in for an hour and given them what for after that embarrassing display - but no, just more stupid excuses that make him look ridiculous. So much for the piece on the OS yesterday from Warnock about how we must give 100% today. The guy has lost the fans and the dressing room - that's how it appears. The performances of late make us a laughing stock and as passionate, loyal fans we shouldn't have to put up with people not even putting the appropriate effort in. I would give Warnock one last chance, if we don't perform against Birmingham we MUST SACK HIM.

Well the performance once again was horrific ! The score line flattered us !

Can't motivate a team to be up for a derby gainst a team who are obviously up for it. Forget illness, transfers, money etc. Player for player ours are better than theirs but motivation, game plan aren't good enough. Waenick fans can complain.bout owt they want but this is the final embarassment

Wish it were true. Cannot watch the rubbish that this guy claims is football. His after match talk was unreal.

I think the next two games are what will decide that, lose to Bristol next Saturday and he can't survive.
Agree1

About time too. The hull game was the worst performance by a Leeds team I've seen in 37 years watching the club and Colin has the cheek in his prematch comments before Barnsley to talk about Grayson's teams efforts last year at Oakwell! He surpassed that with another abject excuse for football today and that follows garbage v Forest, Hull, Bolton, Brum and numerous other games this season. Have some respect for yourself Colin and recognise you are out of your depth, take your back room boys with you and leave someone else to sort out your mess, you are a dinosaur!
Agree0

I hope so I cannot take anymore of this dross. One of the worst Leeds managers in our history. Six wins in 18 games and osing against the bottom side. Pathetic
Agree0

Wrong manager, they won't give him any money, becchio could go, might aswell get new manager in know, i remember when he said a team of his would never let five in at home or play as bad away sorry mr warnock you aint taking us to the promise land

Ssn are reporting that us and QPR are linked to Habib Habibou. I'm not making this up the name is genuine. He plays for Zulte Waregem.

I looked up who he was, and on his profile it says he threw a duck over the advertising boards, when it wandered onto the pitch. There is also a video of it.

I'll be very surprised if we manage to pull this deal off!
The PL lure has bitten LUFC once to often with the likes of Howson, Johnson and Snodgrass.
But fingers crossed because i looked him up on youtube and he looks a real talent

We don't needs a striker why can't dippy warnock see that we got no wide men to supply the forwards he played 4 center mids today when he could of played 5 in mid with diouf and Ross on the wings but no he's clueless I also think diouf should be given the chance in center mid I for 1 think he will boss it ....jp

Well if he can hoof the ball over 60 feet...ave it....i am sure he will fit in...

Don't really care at the moment, it won't make a bit of difference whilst Warnock is in charge because he has lost it. If he signed Messi he would have him at the back lumping balls up field - it's so sad to say it but we are crap at the moment

Norwich's interest in Becchio has cooled as they have been offered Carlton Cole by West Ham. He could be the big target man they are looking for and has premiership experience. However there are other clubs looking at Becchio so don't expect the stories of Becchio leaving to disappear now

NW has said Becchio isn't leaving unless he says so.
