A rather random choice in the first place. A common pattern at the moment, seems to be to alternate between an exciting young coach (usually foreign), and a safe pair of hands British coach, so time for the experienced British coach now...
Really bad news for us now, Bradford are in free fall but with a new manager, that could really spark their season back into life...
Depends who they get in... Do think they've over achieved a bit despite their high attendances
Simon Grayson favourite
If Simon Grayson gets it, they’ll finish top 6. Vet good manager at this level in my opinion. 3 promotions from League One with Leeds, Huddersfield and Preston.
He takes the Leeds job. Apart from anything else, it looks a bit weird to appoint the manager of a team 11 places below Leeds, who've lost their last 3 matches!

And a huge Barnsley fan, who in the past has stated how much he hates leeds
He's a good upcoming Manager - Have to remember that the Barnsley promotion push came from:
Alfie Mawson (now at Swansea) James Bree (now at Aston Villa) Conor Hourihane (also at Aston Villa) Marley Watkins (now at Norwich City) Sam Winnall (now at Sheffield Wednesday)
The only key player left from that squad that went into the Championship is Adam Hammill which is a difficult ask for any Manager

2-1 defeat. New manager bounce.
Interesting choice
Oxford have shown they probably don’t need a manager when they play us!
Yep...interesting!

Well, if you will employ Alan Pardew
Any views @bobmunro ?
Good, don't like the smug prick to be honest.
