>>Surely Bates deserves the credit for LUFC entering administration?
Are you giving credit for wiping out a £5m tax debt? Fine by me. >>> Fact remians: Chelsea did not go bust. Fact remains LUFC did go bust - LUFC are in administration, lest you should forget.<< And could be out of it by monday morning. >>Bates didn't sell out to a sympathetic investor, who brought great success to LUFC, did he?<< Not yet. But surely that's part of his plan? >>Is it? Success at all costs? Trampling on other Leeds fans in the process?<< Which "fans" are you talking about? Mythical would-be investors? >>If he f'd off out of the picture we may have a sympathetic investor willing to restore the glory days to ER waiting in the administrators office as we speak - but you would suggest that Bates was the best option anyway.<< The key word here is "may". Show me a better plan than Bates' and I'll back it. But I'm tired of mythical local businessmen, teenage property tycoons and phoney sheikhs. As it stands, from the information provided, Bates is a better option than the others on the table. But that doesn't mean he's the best option.
