Looks bad on outside but his release fee was met by Leeds. Works both ways, club could sack him after Saturday or at any point.

And the club could also have sacked him on saturday night too after the QPR game .Quote:

Leeds had a coach last friday and on sunday night they didn't .

I can understand that he probably jumped before he was pushed but I can't help feeling that his moving to the mighty Leeds was all so orchestrated. For me he now ranks with Wilson and I think he will suffer the same fate. Hecky now has to handle egos and good luck to him. I truly hope that he carries on at Leeds where he left of with the reds. Who other than Leeds would want someone with the record of Hecky. Leeds the gift that keeps giving.

But that was then - things can so easily change in the near future.
We have owners that can buy and sell Leeds and the Sheffield clubs 30 times over.
IMO Barnsley can get bigger crowds than Burnley.
Which is the more powerful club Burnley or Leeds?
If both of these clubs went to sign a player - who is likely to get the player?
Good original post Gerry and I agree with most of it.
I'm gutted to lose him but the show goes on. When you think that this time last year we had an owner frum tarn, head coach frum tarn and club captain frum tarn, sat 8th in the championship table playing exciting attacking football. It shows how quickly things can change in football. Now we dont have the same identity which is sad.
Id love Macca to manage here but it's probably a slim chance of that happening with the way our club operates if I'm completely honest. Can you see an experienced manager like him demoting to a head coach & working with amateurs on a laptop studying player stats? Me neither.
Having said that his budget at Ipswich is modest and I think there's a chance he'd leave them because he can't do much more down there. I'm probably reaching for sh1te hoping it happens and hope can drive a man insane as they say :D
