I SAY BRING BACK BRIAN CLOUGH 😂
Leeds United have sacked head coach Paul Heckingbottom after only four months in charge.
The 40-year-old won just four of his 16 games, having left Barnsley to replace Thomas Christiansen on 6 February.
Leeds ended the season 13th in the Championship table.
Heckingbottom's departure means Leeds will start the season with a new manager for a fifth successive year - and whoever takes over will be the club's 10th boss since 2014.
Only one of the club's previous eight managers, Garry Monk in 2016-17, has lasted a whole campaign in the role.

A VILLAIN GOING TO DIRTY LEEDS?
Leeds United have taken advantage of the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Aston Villa’s financial predicament by moving to see whether manager Steve Bruce is interested in a switch to Elland Road.
Bruce is still completely in the dark about what is going to happen at Villa, with the club in serious financial trouble and teetering on the brink administration.
That has alerted Leeds who have approached the former Manchester United captain through intermediaries to try to discover whether he would like to speak to them about their managerial vacancy.

HAS CONTE GOT THE BLUES?
Maurizio Sarri is in final negotiations with former club Napoli as he edges closer to taking charge at Chelsea, says the Serie A club's president.
Antonio Conte took charge of Chelsea's pre-season training at the weekend, despite speculation over his future.
Sarri has held talks with Chelsea, but remains contracted to Napoli, who have replaced him with Carlo Ancelotti.
"We are in the finishing line," said Aurelio de Laurentiis. "Now it depends on [Sarri] and Chelsea."
"The Sarri affair is nearly at its conclusion, it all depends on him. My lawyers have submitted papers to his lawyers."
Italian Sarri, 59, joined Napoli in 2015 and led them to second behind champions Juventus last season.
