Also, why would the current coach want to leave when there's an outstanding crop of youngsters waiting to burst onto the superleague scene presaging a further decade of success?

I reckon Brian Mac will be around for a little while yet. When he does go, as all coaches do in the end, I think it might come a bit soon for the current players.

In the end, the most likely candidate from the current players to become head coach of Leeds looks like being JJB.

I thought we were talking about Jimmy Lowes i.e. assistant coach?

Lowes seems a great assistant, not sure about as a head coach - maybe the wrong person, maybe last time was too soon.

JJB+Burrow+McGuire

Dream team.

I wonder what influence James Lowes in his role has on the team. That I may never know. But I hope its not much to be honest.

I reckon Lowes is a good coach on the training pitch. Man management etc. is a totally different world.

I'd like to see Lowes stay as McDermott's 'man in the tracksuit'. The combo seems to work reasonably well.

Could see JJB moving into coaching or even media work.

To do that he needs to work on his diction.

I believe he has quite interesting man management skills, it alleged he got into fight with Ben Cross, and Mr Cross knocked him out. It is alleged.

He's moved on from offering fans outside then?

how many times has this happened ?

tbh i thought the title was going to be wants another crack at fans

From reported tales of his Xmas drinking sessions in Leeds - no.
