Mountjoy Mugger

At last! Maybe now Ridsdale will realise the error of his ways.

Won't be long now, Terry..

johnnynolegs

hes gone definitely ah well good riddance says me

tHE vAGGABOND

who do leeds get in his place then?

er..um...

Lots of untried or other crap managers to pick from?

Serbian

David O'Leary is a pretty good manager...

They will probably try to pinch a good 1st Division Manager or maybe even a manager from one of the 'lesser' Premiership teams. I think that Risdale will stick with him until after Christmas anyway, give him a chance to buy someone during the transfer window.

Although his results have been abysmal...

kirn

the situation at leeds is thus:

sacked o'leary.
hired venables.
in court over payments to o'leary
venables doing shhite.

they cannnot get rid of venables, cos they'll have to pay out his contract. they can't feckin' afford it!

so venables will have to resign.

then, ridsdale may go, as he fired o'leary and he hired venables.

then dave o leary could come back, therefore loosing the court case, winning over (however temporary) fans, and not having to train in a new manager.

apperently mills slagged venables off in the dressing room too...

most of the good first division managers are failed premiership managers, Paul Jewll, Harry Redknapp etc etc

I would be willing to bet my life on Dave O'L not getting the job back! I think Roy Keane is further up the list! Risdale clearly does not like him, and he is the key man making the choice!

Maybe Mick Mc?

Bad examples,Paul Jewell lead a team (Bradford) from nowhere into the premiership and keep them up the first season remeber they beat Liverpool on the last day of the season to stay up
Paul Jewell left Bradford he was not sacked and they begged him to stay.

Harry Redknapp did a great job with west ham and made them a stable Premiership team alot better than there doing now,he left West ham due to an Arguement with the Chairman he was not sacked.

David O leary was on statistics the second best manager Leeds ever had,he made them an exciting team to watch in Both England and Europe and was sacked because he wouldnt defend two players who beat a person nearly to death for been a different colour.

tHE vAGGABOND

and was sacked because...

Not because he wrote a book about it the same issue to cash in and hence pissed off the upper management of the club and some of the players or because he spent an utter fortune and won feck all..

Harry Redknapp did a great job with west ham

No he did'nt! He made them solid, but they were going nowhere. If a club wants to be 'solid' then he is a good choice, but I think Leeds want to win things, not just keep their place in the middle of the table



anyway have a look for yourself at who is who managing in England..

West Ham have always been a selling club so I would say Harry did as well as could have been expected of him there. I think this is backed up by the fact his current team are clear leaders of the first division and he has made some shrewd signings to get them there. You are right about why O leary got sacked. That book was a very foolish move. It is a shame because the Leeds fans used to think he could walk on water, and Risdale and the players really respected him before the whole court case thing. I was at elland Road a few times during his reign and any time he stuck his head out of the dugout he got a big cheer. But I cannot see him going back there, I think relations have thawed by too much.

Solid is better then relagated,and yes he's currently managing the runaway first divison leaders, anyway this isnt a thread about Harry Redknapp.
