Leeds have lost their last three home league games, although they did see off Barnet in the second round of the League Cup on Tuesday.

"The board of Leeds United have on Wednesday terminated the contract of manager Kevin Blackwell," read a statement on the club's official website.

"The club would like to place on record its thanks to Kevin for the work he has put in over the past three-and-a-half years, the past two-and-a-half of which were as manager.

"No further comment will be made at this time."

Attention will now turn to Blackwell's successor with the likes of Alan Curbishley, Glenn Hoddle and Kevin Keegan among the favourites with the club's fans.

No great surprise as they should have gained promotion last year and he seems to have lost the support of the players.

I really thought they would of given him a bit of time. Is this enter Curbs or is he holding out for a Premiership club.

theo kawala · 09-21-2006, 08:42 PM

he should of had a bit more time but they want to make sure they get promotion and with a start like that then they had no choice

goldenHuddlestone · 09-21-2006, 08:47 PM

Apparentyl Wise has been approached

Hey guys,
my dad supports leeds and he wanted blackwell sacked for the rubbish performance he has been doing as manager i want Curbishley to come in and have the job he is a good manager and will hopefully get leeds up

goldenHuddlestone · 09-23-2006, 10:35 PM

I think Curbs is waiting for a big team

theo kawala · 09-24-2006, 08:31 AM

they are not doing good enough though so far 17th i think

goldenHuddlestone · 09-24-2006, 05:16 PM

Hence the sacking

GoldAndBlack-Army! · 09-27-2006, 04:57 PM

Glad Blackwell has been sacked, not done very much for leeds but i hope ya get a better manager that Blackwell!

theo kawala · 10-04-2006, 07:01 PM

goldenHuddlestone · 10-07-2006, 12:10 PM

Not Curbishley now. He's ruled himself ut of all non-Prmiership teams.

theo kawala · 10-07-2006, 12:12 PM

if you were curbishley would u take the job?.

goldenHuddlestone · 10-07-2006, 12:14 PM

I'd be tempted becuase I don;t see any Prem teams needng a new manager soon

theo kawala · 10-07-2006, 12:15 PM

i think in january or something he might get a chance

goldenHuddlestone · 10-07-2006, 12:17 PM

where thogh

theo kawala · 10-07-2006, 12:20 PM

one of the promoted sides reading sheffield watford i dunno maybe someone whos not doing good enough

goldenHuddlestone · 10-07-2006, 12:23 PM

I don't think any of those three would sack their managers

theo kawala · 10-08-2006, 07:52 AM

ok then who ever is doing the worst that wasnt promoted

goldenHuddlestone · 10-08-2006, 11:40 PM

The only team I see that may sack their manager in the near future is Fulham

theo kawala · 10-09-2006, 06:52 AM

yer how long has he been manager for?

goldenHuddlestone · 10-10-2006, 03:29 PM

2 seasons i thnk

theo kawala · 10-10-2006, 03:48 PM

i think he should be sacked soon he hasnt done that much of a good job

goldenHuddlestone · 10-10-2006, 03:52 PM

He's kept them up I consider that a good job

theo kawala · 10-10-2006, 04:41 PM

goldenHuddlestone · 12-15-2006, 07:07 PM
