    Thought he was doing a good job!

    Like you say, close to play-offs, decent coach, had to sell a few players. Crazy. It's Bates they needed rid of. Not that it really bothers me in the slightest. Just hope they don't come sniffing. Does the transfer window include Managers too ? :)

    Lets hope they don't come after Hillcroft as it wouldn't surprise me. If there is two things Master Bates likes it's.......

    1) Not backing a manager with big funds.

    2) Banking big transfer fees from selling players at a profit.

    So Bates would see our guys are on a cheap 12 month rolling contract, can work with little cash and already with Vaz Te have made a profit on a player. Everything that Bates likes.

    You do realise this is the bloke who was in charge at Chelsea when they signed Gullit, Vialli, Zola etc don't you?

    Aye, doesn't back his managers. And Leeds have spent plenty.

    I might pop a few quid on Neil Warnock being their next manager.

    He's the only manager with a proven track record currently out of work, and would be a good appointment in my eyes.

    He would have to pay compensation - something he doesn't like. Bates will go for someone out of work I suspect.
