I would prefer Ranieri over Curbishley, but I'd like to see Carver given the chance, at least a fair few games to see if he is any cop and if so him staying with Lucas and Gary Mac on the coaching team doesn't sound too bad to me. Or Newell.
Bates said Curbs wouldn't take the type of contract he was offering (basic wage, bonuses on success) and wanted a higher basic wage, no bonuses.
In Bates' world that probably means he'll be here in two weeks.
I hope not though.
Ken said previously that he wouldn't want to risk souring any personal friendships (he is God father to Wise's kids) by working together but I'd rather have Wise than most of the other names being touted around.
I wouldn't be so sure, there are a significant number of Leeds fans who would welcome him back with open arms. And think that he did no wrong and it was all Ridsdale, Bow, Woody etc.
