Eh?

april fools

Even so. Maybe it is me, but it seems ages ago that Sam was there, and cant even remember them doing a new ground, like The Reebok, (or whatever it is called now), was done ages ago I thought.

What a mess though.

A debt of that size doesn't arrive overnight and was steadily accumulating during their stint in the Premiership. Clearly, low crowds, the loss of 'SKY money' and no longer getting a parachute payment must now be really hitting hard.

Had a better look. BBC say the majority is owed to their owner, (fair enough), but his worth is "only" £40m. Just seems odd to me. Still.

 

[ToffeeDoug]

Yep, just about to say about the debt being owed to the owner rather than a bank. Maybe he used to be worth £213m!

Funding their ground, Fat Sam bringing in hasbeens on huge wages, lots of empty seats.

all them corporate boxes not being used,not much use out of the top flight.

Just as things looked to be going well for Leeds.......

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Eh?

Did Vialli relegate them in 98 with a winning goal?

I seem to recall we stayed up at their expense that season

Only Pellegrini in January and Koeman in October have bucked the manager of the month hoodoo this season.

Here's hoping we make it a hat trick of no defeats or draws after a MOTM award.

I hope to be doing lots of this at 2:45pm tomorrow and none of this

All good thoughts appreciated

COYG's, FOYRS

how the hell can a 1min39 second ban for each of the 55 charges POSSIBLY be described a unduly lenient....

Any Club other than The Rangers Football Club PLC Ltd, and they'd have been banned for months.
