Why are you talking about rugby? The only Premiership I know is the Aviva one.



"News for bbc football premiership fixtures"
Perhaps you should drop the B.B.C a line.

Where does it say that, frimmers3s?

Are you sure they weren't talking about the Scottish Premiership?

The English league is The Premier League, as they've clearly stated in your copy & paste job

Frankly, I am in the Butler camp.If the Beeb want to refer to it as the premiership,who am I to argue?Those of a small minded disposition could google"premiership fixtures". I would hate to induce sleep deprivation.

Hockaday fired from Leeds; he lasted 6 games in total.

I can see Leeds having 3 or 4 managers this season.

He won two of those six games as well. He appears to have been fired after losing three games in a row. :lol:

F'does and dues to Cellino

His 36 managers in 21 years obviously goes before him....he can already add two to his short tenure in Yorkshire

But, he did appoint Hockaday going totally left-field from choosing from the usual suspects list.

It might've worked....it didn't....it would've been a well heralded miracle if it had tho',

But, he has achieved himself a good starting point....Leeds cannot sink much lower....his next appointment can only be an improvement on the last....and so-on

Whoever takes that job will have to be a baffling glutton for punishment and be in desperate need of some quick cash.

McDermott was paid £750k p/a, whereas Hockaday was being paid £90k p/a. At this rate with compensation it is just gonna balance over the course of the season with all the people they go through. Might as well throw your hat in to collect a nice quick payout

They actually played OK against Bradford with 10 men and were unlucky to lose after getting ahead. There are times the manager can be blamed for a bad result but that wasn't one of them.
