Leeds United Legend Andy Ritchie Speaks Out Against Club Owner Massimo Cellino
"?Leeds United legend Andy Ritchie has hit out at Elland Road owner Massimo Cellino for showing a "lack of class" in approaching other managers while current coach Steve Evans remains in his position. Evans is the seventh manager that Leeds United have appointed in the space of two years.
Ritchie, "?writing for the Yorkshire Post, believes that Steve Evans is the right man for the job at Elland Road and that Cellino had been disrespectful in actively searching for other managers.
He says: "Speaking to other head coaches whilst Steve is still in charge is not very classy is it? Well. I don't think it is.
"And how does Steve put up with it? For me, it seems as though they are trying to force him out and make him quit. It looks like they are trying to force his hand, if you like."?
Saying Evans has "done a great job"?, Ritchie adds: "I think we need to have that stability and if we have a new head coach there will be people that he won't want at the football club, he'll want to bring new people in and there will be uncertainty again with the players.
"There will be a new regime, it will be a new way of training with most probably a new system in place of how he wants to play.
"I just feel it's too much change every three or four months and the players must be getting sick of it, I would have thought."?
Evans was appointed by the club last October after the dismissal of Uwe Rosler, and guided them to a 13th placed finish in the Championship last season.
