Following recent results do you think Leeds will be looking round for a new boss soon?
And will it be a case of "taxi for Mr Redknapp"?

Neil Warnock is in line to take over from Billy Davies as manager of Nottingham Forest after Kuwaiti owner Fawaz Al-Hasawi held talks with the former Leeds United boss.
EDIT
YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST.
Billy Davies sacked and Neil Warnock set to take over at Nottingham Forest
Nottingham Forest are expected to confirm the sacking of Billy Davies and announce Neil Warnock as their new manager
Davies and his staff did not turn up for training at the Championship club on Monday, fuelling speculation the 49-year-old Scot had been fired overnight. Now reported by East Midlands news that the sacking is confirmed!!!
Ex-Leeds United boss Warnock reportedly met with Forest's owners on Sunday. Keith Curle, the failed ex Notts County manager, touted as his assistance.
What's wrong with Malkie McKay? Isn't he out of work?
Conference here we come!!!!!!!

Mr Warnock's comment after turning down the job.....
"The chairman is a lovely man. He loves the club. But I found it very difficult that there was nobody English around the club to speak to that had football experience. I felt it is area they need to look at."
Must be a result of having employed a Scotsman - with a Welsh name!

So the following have now turned the Forest job down or have said that they are not interested:
Niel Warnock Stuart Pearce
Previously turned down by Mick McCarthy
Latest to reject the forest job are:
Malky Mackay Martin O'Niel Roy Keane
This list will grow.
Meanwhile, Billy Davis get another 3 game ban for touching the ref, so if anyone wants him make sure that you have a seat in the stands but not near any media, he doesn't talk to the press nowadays.
