    Leeds sack their DoF, and are probably about to sack Gracia and replace him with Allardyce.

    Feels a bit like when we brought Atkinson in.

    Frankly, I'm worried by this. They were going down. Now they've a chance. Probably.

    They've reached the stage where they've stopped trying to hold it in, and now are sitting there shitting themselves.

    Not much of a chance, and it might be really hilarious.

    Disappointing that it'll leave only three former Watford managers in the premier league.

    Appointing Dyche when Everton appointed Dyche was a rational choice that may pay off at our expense, this is a desperate grasp at a miracle. Leed are in the fight, like they always were, but I am not worried this will swing it either way.

    We’d all be spitting blood if Forest did this. Admittedly, we rather like the manager we have… but still… BFS for a 4-game bender is nobody’s idea of a good time.

    The Leeds fans appear to hate Gracia and are happy to see him gone, but hate Allardyce more and are deeply unhappy to see him arrive.

    And either way, he's going to spend the rest of the season promoting himself and how he should get the Leeds job long-term.
    If he keeps them up, he's a miracle worker, if they go down, it's not his fault, needs a rebuild, he's the man to do it etc etc.
    It's win-win for BFS (well, pretty much everyone except dirtyleeds fans, and we all fcukin hate leeds).

    Sounds like the right man for the job, to me.

    If Leeds, ourselves & Everton all fail to win another game, Big Sam will pocket 2.5m for keeping Leeds up by doing nothing!

    Looks like Valérien Ismaël is lining himself up for some of that sweet Watford payoff money. Wonder if he'll make it to September before cashing in.

    And our number nine has extended his contract at Mansfield for another year.
