Dr Mike asked :-
> Now to your question: What has he done wrong?:

Please bear in mind that for no rational reason I hate and mistrust cuddly
ken, however to Mikes questions here are a few possible answers

> 1. There are wild discrepancies of things said in time. I 
> particular, how
> much do we owe? 

According to Blackwell about £4M and you can add another £4M for what's owed
to the Kransortium and a potential £5M for the bondholders (though if we
never get promoted we won't ever pay that)

> Why have we got money from Chelsea and now 
> Sheffield yet
> seemingly have none? [add to that the cash we will get on Healey]

Perhaps gates are so low that we are actually losing money and the proceeds
from Chelsea have gone to balance the books.

> 2. Why did he extend Blackwell's contract?

Bates thought Blackwell had done a good job at the time - play off positions
were above expectations

> 3. Why did he then sack him?

Bates met Walker

> 5. Why do we not know who owns Leeds United?

We do know, it's some fancy Geneva based trust fund, other than that
"Transparency is not ours for the asking" as spake a local sage.

> 6. Why are prices so high?

Cos we have a lot of debt to pay off - we 'only' charge the same as ManU at
OT

> 7. Why the fight with the local newspaper?

They said something about the players and the club that upset cuddly ken.

> All these questions point to things going wrong.
