Nope Caddick delegated essentially total control of all football matters to Hetherington when the two of them bought the club in 1996. That's why you never hear from him.

Hetherington has no ownership of Whinos, he is just a gob541te who is up the RFL bottom, most SL owners cannot stand the guy, or his wife or Agar.

If all you say is correct , then they may have as well employed me for a 10th of his salary !

I think that in business and politics there is a lot of skill and experience needed if your charged with bringing a good number of rich and strong minded people together.

Let me have your CV in this area and I'll check it and send it in for you. I want 20%.

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

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%.
