Thanks for everything Garry it's been a good era but now it seems that you are no longer driven and far too comfortable in your position. Nothing left to prove been there done it all please step aside and let someone with hunger vision and drive run our beloved club instead of just rolling out the years building up a nest egg and giving jobs to family and friends.
If you're going to slag a bloke have the decency to spell his fecking name right! Not the least bit interested in whatever prompted this but just thought I'd point it out.

OP seems to have a very short memory. Perhaps you weren't about in the pre-Hetherington era but it wasn't pretty. He's done some stuff I'm not particularly happy about in the past but twelve whole months after we won the treble and you are calling for him to step aside?

I think the OP has a point about nepotism at the club and there is a legitimate argument as to whether GH is the man to guide the club in the future.
Nobody is suggesting GH hasn't done a fantastic job at Leeds but I think the 2015 treble posted over cracks that have appeared over the past 3/4 years.
Issues around the stadium, the quality of the squad, the lack of quality coming through the academy etc.
Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Burn him!

Who is Heatherington? The only man to run the club is Heatherington! We need someone like Heatherington! We need a younger, hungrier version of Heatherington! Who was Heatherington?

Pass the baton on to young Robbie Burrows. Jobs for the boys and all that

Papered, Sal. It's "papered over the cracks"
Come on now, you've been saying it since 2007. It's really not difficult to get these things right.

Hey as we have discussed plenty the last four years have been the least productive in terms of GF appearances since 2004 - you may call that progress and you are entitled to that view. I would say that is fact and I am right but again I am sure you will have a counter argument as why the "Moon is indeed flat"
So now we have a recognised hooker are you prepared to take a bet that Leeds will finish inside the top 4 or do you have another caveat that you need put in just to increase your chances?
