That some of sat on 606 and said we didn't want to be another Man City.....yet here we are hoping for investment and takeover....now we need to be careful about the difference between the two and what the Chairman seems to be hoping for......I understand takeover as someone else buying out the owner of the business and effectively 'taking over' the reins...my view of investment.....you have a goal you know you can't do it alone so you club together with a person at the head....now this brings me back to my point......we have a chairman who it seems doesn't want to leave without a significant payoff for getting us back to the hallowed ground of the championship...or we may have someone who for some reason wants to just hang on and sour things for us leeds fans (as he said he would years ago).....now back to my title we were carping on about Man City and their takeover and how it ruined the club etc etc.....so what do we fans actually want? Does anyone even know what goes through Bates head?....I liked the scratchingshed article we argue far to much at the moment we have Ken Bates as owner/chairman whatever......that being said it seems we have a manager trying his flucking damndest to put together a team.....so guys you don't buy merchandise you won't buy pies I applaud you but can we honestly not support NW and the new side not to be professionals and do their bloody damndest to get promotion?

Leeds fans = paranoid schizophrenia
posted on 11/8/12
Paranoid schizophrenia is one of several types of schizophrenia, a chronic mental illness in which a person loses touch with reality (psychosis). The classic features of paranoid schizophrenia are having delusions and hearing things that aren't real.
With paranoid schizophrenia, your ability to think and function in daily life may be better than with other types of schizophrenia. You may not have as many problems with memory, concentration or dulled emotions. Still, paranoid schizophrenia is a serious, lifelong condition that can lead to many complications, including suicidal behavior.
With effective treatment, you can manage the symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia and work toward leading a happier, healthier life.

Be carefull what you wish for,
Malaga were taken over by a mega bucks sheik,
1st year just avoided relegation,
2nd year 4th in the league,into champions league,
Since then the bloke has chucked his toys out of the pram,
Players,cleaners etc unpaid,
Put the club up for sale,
If the unpaid players denounce him could be demoted to the third tier!!
What at first smells of roses soon goes rotten.
Not saying this will happen to us.

Stoopo think you've nailed it we keep on hoping for the best and expecting the worst....there's various degrees inbetween......we all agree we love leeds some of the most loyal irrepresible fans ever...but we're in the championship we're owned by a bloke who most of us hate but for one reason or anther has kept us afloat...I hate him but then again I hate the whinging moaning bogger that is NW......now the question is where do we go from here...some of you want to with-hold your hard earner money 'I applaud you same as if you got something bad from your favourite pub you' never go back' BUT ask yourself this is Leeds your favourite pub? NO it's not for me....I'm playing devils advocate here....you say NW would have walked but yet he's stuck around with the record he's got of promotion and he's bought in a lot of what we hope are his players...we lost Snodders but the spine of the team is there...now with NW in charge and the team he's built don't you think he deserves at least a bloody crack at it...we're not exactly over run with buyers and managers

We just want an owner/ someone who can show a little bit of ambiton in the team, not asking for billions not asking to spend 5 / 10 million on 1 player. Would've been nice to have kept the quality we had paid them a respectfull wage & just enough to add 1 or 2 other decent players who will help us pefrom on the pitch & then build on that. Is that too much to ask for?

It is the manager who is destroying the club. He has signed Varney and Gray! Might as well have signed Reg Varney and Christian Gray.
He had months to show us what he could do last season and boy did he show us - he can get us relegated that's what he can do, and that's what he excels in.

If Grayson would have signed Drury and Gray this board would have exploded in anger.
