Simon Grayson has admitted that he would like to extend his stay as manager of Leeds United.

The 43-year-old recently entered his fourth year in charge of the club having left Blackpool to take over at Elland Road in 2008.

Since then, Grayson has guided the Whites out of League One and into the Championship.

Grayson has conceded that he feels the pressure of managing a club like Leeds, but hopes to remain at the club for another three years at least.

"The job has a high expectancy level and people are there to criticise you," he told the Yorkshire Evening Post. "I accept criticism and I accept plaudits.

"There is pressure but I'd feel it more if I didn't think I was doing the right things. I like to think I know what I'm doing but I'm not so big-headed to think I know everything. I work hard to make the club successful.

"It seems like only two minutes since I came in and I still love coming to work every day. When you first come through the door, you want to reach anniversaries and see that the club's progressed. We've certainly done that and I'm looking forward to being here for another three years."

Leeds are currently sixth in the Championship table.
