I agree that Bates will not go quietly. It will be bloody, messy, and noisy. If he is going to come up with a winning bid however, I cannot see HMRC accepting any funding from any offshore entity which is not fully explained and made transparent. I expect to see a new source of apparent funding such as previously undisclosed sponsorship and so on to be trotted out. Will HMRC fall for more smoke and mirrors ? What answer will the FL give when approached by KPMGs latest attempt to leave the club in Bates' hands ?. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
