At least it's clear now what ambition Bates has for the club!

He always said he would not rest until Leeds United and their fans were kicked out of the football league. Getting closer to his dream.

I remember that quote well Jo .

Nice corporate boxes though.

Maybe wrap the bricks in season ticket renewal forms first?

After the "scoreboard incident" at Stamford Bridge.

Looks like this is pointless thread now as its the same old crap as usual - sell best players and bring in loans or old men - things won't change while Bates and Grayson are at the club( though Grayson's days may be fewer than Bates ) . Expect more of the better playrs , the few left , to leave , if not now - then in the summer , while replaced by the usual dross . Did we really expect this window to be any different from the previous 2 or 3 ....or 4 :duno: . all they want is your season ticket money and you can f**k off then , opinion doesn't matter , passion doesn't matter , the club will settle for a mid table championship place just eeking out an existence , making up numbers while having no forward ambition at all , apart from getting your money off you . Don Revie must be spinning in his grave alongside all those that backed him .This club is a disaster - fantastic fans , dismal leadership . If this is the ambition they show you can understand Howson wanting to achieve something ~( Norwich is hardly the place to do that though ) . Snoddy next and Becchio I would assume , or Clayton - selling the family silver ....no almost giving it away .

Not a player rumor, but been hearing whispers that Grayson has left his post as manager, announcement tomorrow. Can't say I'd blame him with Ken's appalling business sense driving the club into the ground, again.

Source is from the Leeds United Americas Facebook page. Though it was later said that Dewsy called the rumor total bollox. We shall see.

Smith to replace Howson?

On loan until the end of the season maybe? He's a massive Leeds fan like Howson, a good leader and a decent player at this level and would give 500% every single game.

Say's he is fitter than ever and would welcome a move to the Championship because he still feel's he's got something to give..
