Gus now bookies favourite for Leeds job

[Gwm]

Brighton & Hove Albion manager Gus Poyet is the latest name to top the bookies odds for the Leeds United managers job.

Poyet, who spent time at Elland Road as Assistant Manager to Dennis Wise, was recently linked with a move to Reading following the dismissal of Brian McDermott, the bookies second favourite to replace Neil Warnock at odds of 11/4.

The former Chelsea midfielder rejected Reading’s advances, instead deciding to continue his work at promotion chasing Brighton who are currently placed 7th in Championship, level on points with Leicester City who occupy the final play-off position.

Previous favourite Paolo Di Canio has slipped back down to 10/1, perhaps as a result of comments made by Neil Warnock who told a press conference earlier today that he thinks 3-4 good managers will become available in the summer, urging the owners of Leeds United to be patient in making their choice.

Leeds United resume their Championship schedule following the international break at 19th placed Ipswich Town on Saturday. Seven points adrift of the play-off places with only eight games remaining, Neil Warnock insists his side haven’t thrown the towel in yet.

 

[Napper]

He's on record of saying he'd like to manage them as well. More likely than Reading was IMO

 

[The Fifth Column]

Meh! Gus now favourite for 'insert team name' FC. And so it continues.

 

[Questions]

The quicker he gets us to the Premier league the quicker he can leave and get a decent post ala Brendon Rodgers. Come on Gus hurry up and get us promoted.

How is Michael Laudrup doing btw ?

Bookies talk shit.

Interesting. Has our Tone finally had enough of Gus flirting and is going to give him the boot? Has Tony got fed up with Gus banging on about wanting to manage in the premiership and will say, **** it, can't handle another season with you and we need a manager dedicated to the club.

Go on Gus, go for it.

 

[Frutos]

Here we go again...

Somebody has probably just put a tenner on. Nothing to see here

What would people on here think of a straight swap of managers with Leeds. I think that Warnock is a good manager proven at this level and proven to be able to get a team promoted to the Prem but would prefer to keep Gus.

I'd rather dangle my balls in a lion's mouth than see Warnock manage us. A clueless buffoon.

What he said!

 

[SeagullSongs]

Yawn.

 

[Commander]

I think that Warnock is a good manager

Why doesn't that surprise me?

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

I'd never want Warnock to ever manage this club.

Gus won't leave, especially with the cloud over their ownership at the moment.

What cloud? They have just re-financed.

Maybe this is why he turned down Reading?

 

[c0lz]

I would only panic if his son Diego places a large bet on it.

 

[Questions]

Warlock has proved he has what it takes with the right club but the man is a prize cc unt


It is getting harder and harder to write **** on here nowadays

 

[Garage_Doors]

Has Warnock been sacked by Leeds then?
