    If he takes that job that must prove he lacks judgement. He could and should hold out for something must better than working for a Chairman who sacks managers at will.

    Ah just some info , Leeds are on a different lunar calendar than the rest of UK. Their fans actually think Evans was there for 5 years, sort of a nethendral caveman, star gazing thing going on up north ,and a lot of grunting.

    Keep looking for employment

    I suppose you know in your heart of hearts your own level.
    Could it be that GM wonders whether he had what it takes to wait for a "better" position (struggling Prem side early in the season) and panicked.
    Or perhaps he has huge confidence in his own ability to do what Chris has predicted and lead them back to glory?
    Even though Leeds are a massive club, in fact one of the top clubs in the whole of Yorkshire, he will be under huge pressure from day 1 from their ruthless chairman. Just hope if it's the former, he lasts until we play 'em.

    Never liked Monk (probably because he played for and managed Swansea... oh and possibly because of his ginger eyelashes!) nor dirty Leeds so double the spice when we play them this season. Quiye possibly the next best thing to playing the Jacks, especially when he starts recruiting the has beens/unfavoured!

    Agree with the comments. He was a decent manager at Swansea and simply got into a results rut (which many do) and Hugh got rid.
    Unfortunately, with a number of managerial faces out of work, was unlikely to get an offer from the premiership.

    With a chairman more of a loon than tan poor old Gary will be on borrowed time after 6 games.

    I just tried googling for some old (not deleted) tweets and they also didn't come up, so I'm not sure his investigations prove anything either way.

    I heard a bit of chatter,about dressing room issues, certain players wife, and a director and the player having to go out out on loan as a result ,Monk caught between a rock and hard place over it , no proof just chatter?

    Informed. Insightful. Wise. Witty. Relevant.

    He was not a good manager at Swansea. He re united their changing room after Laudrup - saw an upturn in results then split the changing room his own way.

    An embarrassing 900 in immitation Real Madrid shirts will hit us if last season is any guide. Strangely quiet too for away fans.

    Sheffield Wednesday were impressive though. Put Leeds to shame.
