Simon Grayson, a boyhood Leeds United fan, became manager in 2008 and ended the club's three-year stay in League One by securing promotion in 2010. His team played positive football and finished 7th in the Championship the following season. Despite solid progress, Grayson was not backed in the transfer market by owner Ken Bates and was sacked in 2012. He remains one of the more successful managers in the post-Revie era.
