Indeed, Caddick re-built the ground, the pair of them make quite a team.......

| Quote: Clearwing "Not just that though, is it? Hetherington and McManus are desperate to be rid. He can't carry the game in any direction without them. Which begs the question of the point in paying him.'"
Suffice to say they gave it a go and maybe it didn't work, so the idea that there is someone who from a position of employee can chair a group of generally top businessmen and rich owners has turned out to be a long shot.
So no need to renew his contract, but no need for people to have a go at the guy as some sort of scapegoat, as you say the chairmen don't seem to see eye to eye at all.

Another one of your cogent, well-informed posts. There isn't an administrator in the sport who comes close to Hetherington's track record over decades, both at the club he founded and at the club he now co-owns. I doubt he cares what other club owners, or what morons on the internet, think of him, his wife or his Challenge Cup winning coach.
Just to help remove a tiny bit of your ignorance, the ownership split of Leeds is Caddick Group 76%, Hetherington 19%, Rob Oates 5%.

| Quote: WestEndThinker "Well, Hetherington has no real say, he doesn't't own Leeds (although he likes to pretend he does). Elstome is employed, unless he severely fails or some misconduct occurs he will keep his job. The same people saying he should just get sacked are the same people that moan about the yawnions losing their powers to hold employers to ransom.'"
No real say. Elstones resignation not linked then?

As soon as Elstone got on the wrong side of the most powerful club bosses his time was always limited.

Ironic considering McManus was one of the three who brought him in.

He seems to have changed his mind quite quickly. Leeds were always against the creation of Elstone's position, which was always going to make life difficult for him.

| Why would anyone take this position unless it's simply about salary?
What exactly can anyone try to achieve when the clubs have so much power?

SL don’t enjoy being disrupted. That’s clear. Now is the chance to create more disruptions.
