Undermined his players, brought out incredibly stupidly titled book, had run ins with his management, which he has gone on to do at subsequent clubs.

If he was so great, don't you think he'd have a job in football somewhere in Britain?

Jonty summed it up spot on. Deserves some of the blame from many sources for making financial decisions without authority.

I remember early in his Villa career the commentator was talking in glowing terms about O'Leary. Then one of the studio reporters commented that actually the word in football wasn't that complimentary about him at his time at Leeds.

Football is a small world, players, managers etc talk.

Which is why I think you can't keep sweeping under the carpet the fact we have had and still have unhappy players at Leeds.

Propsective incoming players will surely hear the inside track and who wants to be at a place where the culture is not good.

It's all written in a book as to the reason why.

The guy would sell his soul to the devil.

Jonty pretty much summed it up, that book is enough to be going on really.

Also, for the amount he spent in the time he was there, to finish outside the top 4 was not good enough and would have resulted in the sacking of just about any other manager

lancashire, jan should be for fine tuning, we missed the boat really in the summer and also most of the previous windows.

After 3 years we should see some evidence of something being built but I don't see it.

If you were Howson would you sign an extension?

Do you think Kasper, Snoddy, Kilkenny, Beckford, Douglas etc encourage players to go and play for Grayson?

The reason for players being unhappy at Leeds today is because of DOL... And he "made financial decisions without authority"..
