Jon 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Just seeing that compensation has been agreed and he is joining part of the Newcastle back room team tomorrow. Is this a good move to go from manager to backroom? Some of the reports are suggesting that he was under a lot of restrictions from the board, but he has done an excellent job with them. Jus twondered everyones thoughts.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eightball 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 To be honest I think DW knows that Leeds aren't going to get promoted, and he sees it as an escape route leaving his reputation reasonably intact. Harry Bassett will probably take over fulltime now, so expect Leeds to languish in the lower divisions for a while... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 917 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Strange one that he is going there as director of football. That job is a nonsense for me. Thats Leeds fooked then 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Gary Mac is 1/4 to get the Leeds job. That'll be that then!!!! Good move for Leeds IMO. If Wise went to Newcastle as the assistant manager then I reckon that would help Newcastle and probably improve Wise as a manager too but Director of Football? Strange one. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightball 0 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Really can't fathom why he's going as DoF. David Pleat reckons it is a job for an older experienced man, so Wise being offered and taking it really is a strange one. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewarty 2,060 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 That's Gary Mac been appointed manager of Leeds on a 6 month contract. 6 month contract? Guess they dont believe they are going up then! Might have something to do with Macca's personal life though... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
