Here are the latest evening Leeds United headlines for Tuesday, May 9.
Mark Jackson parts company with relegated MK Dons
Former Leeds United coach Mark Jackson has parted company with MK Dons following the club's final day relegation to League Two on Sunday afternoon.
Jackson, who in charge of Leeds United's U21s before being installed as a first-team coach by Jesse Marsch last year, took over the struggling Dons in December and was charged with masterminding their battle against the drop to the fourth tier.

The club released the following statement on Tuesday afternoon: "Milton Keynes Dons Football Club have parted company with Head Coach Mark Jackson, following the Club’s relegation to Sky Bet League Two.
"Assistant Head Coach Robbie Stockdale and Technical Insights Analyst Aaron Dagger will also depart the Football Club.
"The Club would like to thank Mark, Robbie and Aaron for their efforts during their time at Stadium MK. Everyone at MK Dons wishes them every success in the future.
"Chairman Pete Winkelman will meet with the media on Thursday to address the Club’s relegation to Sky Bet League Two and to discuss next steps for MK Dons."
