You're in danger of making Bates sound like the
second coming of Superman...he really isn't that
powerful...sorry to disappoint you, he really isn't!
But hey let's not stop a good story steeped in
speculation and conspiracy theories...you've been
played!
Poor article.
Grayson had moderate success at the club, but ultimately under achieved which is why he was sacked.
Warnock was a disaster, which is why he was sacked.
Macca lost 5 games in a row and although it was harsh, it did seem like he'd lost the plot a bit so was sacked.
Football fans are fickle and no one was really influenced by Bates. Leeds fans liked Grayson because we were winning games and he was a local. They didn't like Warnock because the football was terrible and his press dealings were shocking.
If Grayson had been losing games, then the fans wouldn't have liked him. They took to him more because he's from Leeds, but that happens at every club - people love a local.
Nothing to do with Bates for me.
So is this a dig at Bates or Grayson?..

You might not have any idea what I'm on about.

It's a dig a anyone who doesn't agree with Clive.
Let me ask you this: why don't you like Ken Bates?
Let me ask you this, why don't you like Simon Grayson?..
He's a poor football manager who made ridiculous decisions, treated players terribly, made the club a laughing stock and blamed everybody but himself.

So this is about Grayson?
Did you read what I said?
This is not intended to be an argument about the respective merits of Grayson and Warnock.
It always ends up that way because people are stupid and have been manipulated by Ken Bates.
People who are just carry on banging on about how terrible Warnock was and how great Grayson was are lost causes.
But it may make the odd person think, and that's enough.

Sol, he don't know which one did better even though he had "all his" best players sold out from under his rumpus!.
He still thinks the one that's just left is still in the process of getting us up!.
Well, you never know, if like Grayson he'd been given till the end of season he might well have, would have been one hell of a sight harder but he might have!.
Painting me out to be a mad Grayson hater and conspiracy theorist is just playing right into Bates' hands and proving my point.
There are no counter arguments, no considered views. Everyone is just calling me an idiot and telling me to shut up in so many words.
"It always ends up that way because people are stupid and have been manipulated by Ken Bates."
No Clive, read back on the tripe you started this of about, and if you read it correctly you'll see someone has started the argument before they posted!..
Mind you, some people have strange hobby's eh?..
"People who are just carry on banging on about how terrible Warnock was and how great Grayson was are lost causes."
Now I wonder, who is the lost cause?..
Your next post is even better than that one!..
"You're proving my point"

Your point is delusional.
It's based on your belief that anyone who disagrees with you is "stupid" and easily manipulated in some mad conspiracy to denigrate Warnock.
Your belief that further disagreement reinforces your hypothesis is also deluded.

Sol, I said don't confuse him, I didn't say confuse everyone else!.
Clive,
You've tried to make this a dig at Grayson while insinuating that any defence of Grayson is supporting Bates.
Grayson got better results than Warnock he had less quality to take on as opponents but the quality available to sign for us was also less too; and in the end he nearly blew it but didn't, we got promoted. He put Howson on as a sub in the Bristol game and he scored. Signed to take us up to the Championship Objective met.
Warnock signed to keep us up during a takeover season. Let's say Job done (with McDermott's help.)
Just support McDermott the other two are former Managers. I hope he's better than both.
