    Leeds will be in the "other" section - with Blackpool, Charlton, Brentford, Birmingham & Rotherham <ok>
    ANY 3 FROM 6 <ok>

    Maybe, but you most certainly left one off that list

    Was going to put Wednesday down too, but they are about to be bought by a billionaire arab so will leave them off for now ;)

    The board have openly stated that relegation happened because they did not act quickly enough, and CH should have gone before the January Transfer window but could not find a suitable replacement at the time (although Neil Adams was available <laugh>). Sometimes it's hard to know just what the truth is.

    I don't think you would have gone down had you not sacked Hughton, and I seriously question your board's decision to hire Adams full time.

    Only time will tell mate. I am all for giving a chance to 'new' managers, but I do fear that if this season is not very good, the board are going to take some serious stick at home games.

    Canary when you fook up at work and it costs the company millions, you lose your job. However football is the only industry where the CEO shrugs it off and sacks someone else because of decisions the CEO and his board made. Our last 4 CEO's should have all been sacked and some of them jailed (One of them is) Your board fell out with the best manager for years in Lambert, and replaced him with Houghton who to be fair did a good job until this season, when he spent more cash on failures, and the side fell into the relegation zone. The board gave him the money and sanctioned his signings, the board left it late to bring in a replacement. The replacement was a novice and out of his depth. Board decisions mate but they are all still in post.
