Leeds hunt for manager may be hit by takeover

LEEDS UNITED’S search for yet another new manager could be undermined by the latest takeover wrangle.

For the fourth time in two years, Leeds are again scouring the managerial market as Eddie Gray yesterday paid the price for the club's relegation to the Football League with his job.

Since the summer of 2002, Leeds have now dispensed with the services of David O'Leary, Terry Venables, Peter Reid and now Gray, underlining the instability that has riddled the club in recent times.
