    The last three games were all easily winnable, and doing so would have put Leeds in the playoffs right now. Given that Warnock has ably demonstrated that he cannot get the results required, even against mediocre opposition, why hasn't GFH sacked him? O'Neil got the boot at Sunderland in a last ditch attempt to save themselves. Even a temporary manager could try to get the team to play differently, rather than just hoof it up the pitch. Anything would have been worth a try because Warnock is clearly running on empty.

    No I'm not talking about replacing him with the desired successor who, as you say, might not be available. Put Naylor in charge for the final games - just anyone who will try to play football.

    Doesn't really matter with that cart horse Morison up front. Becchio would have buried those chances Morison missed yesterday. All Warnock's fault, chase after a striker who hasn't played in **** knows how long when we don't need strikers, trade our only consistent goalscorer for him, then wonder why we can't score goals? ****ing ******ed. All he needed to do was get a couple of decent wide players to provide service to Becchio. That's all he needed to do, couldn't even do that because he's **** and useless and clueless and needs to **** off to Cornwall and stay there.

    So Ristac - Moyes is a free agent come the summer, does he need a new challenge, is he just plain crazy enough to be thinking about a move to Yorkshire - is this what all the Warnock "be patient" S**** is all about, and why we aren't all over Adkins/McDermott/O'Neill like we should be? Conspiracy theorists, let's hear it...

    It's Tom Lees fault Warnock hasn't been sacked yet, obviously.

    Isn't it unbelievable, how some, at the time Leeds were shafting Becchio, tried to maintain swapping Morrisson for him would be a great deal. Slated becchios work rate and all round ability. Suppose it'll be the same when Byram is sold. The usuals will be nitpicking while he's replaced with some 33 year old cart horse. Becchio was in our top ten all time goalscorers, forced out by Warnock and club, swapped for a worthless Norwich hasbeen

    The Becchio decision was genuinely confusing. What club gets rid of their leading scorer, 19 goals by January? Oh, Leeds do. Beckford was sublime at Leeds, and I have no doubt he would have fired us to the Prem, yet we let him go for nothing, and Everton sold him for £3m. I believe Beckford was stunned that Leeds released him, and don't think he recovered from it. We have a history of letting talent leave, expect this to continue.

    Not a chance Moyes would step down - Warnock is blowing hot air, he see's himself as the manager who has built us a solid foundation (because he is delusional) and wants to walk away at the end of the season believing in his own mind what a great job he did. He doesn't want to be remembered as the guy who was sacked.
