The spin doctors

It doesnt matter how much spin our Mr Haigh puts out, the final outcome will always have been,
"We ran out of time as the takeover took longer than expected, come the summer transfer window we can use the money we have for more signings and a better push for promotion".

The way it is going the promotion will be from the 1st to the Championship as the club is yet again falling apart just around the Xmas mark.

There has to be something wrong with the club for the team to consistantly do ok up to Xmas and then fail miserably until the end of the season, this has happened over the last 3-4 years.

Nothing really seems to have changed from the Bates era other than a few minor tweaks to keep the fans happy.

Could it be Bates is using GFH as a marketing company and is still in charge- it wouldnt surprise me at all!!!!

Explains why he wanted offices nearby, the guy new he was on a losing wicket with the fans and the fan base was on the way down, bring in some marketing company with the spin including, I have supported Leeds all my life ( even though I am from Salford not beeston) add a few lower ticket prices and offers and bobs your Uncle the fans are back on side, keep it ticking over making money for the old man.

It seems very strange we are going through the very same scenarios of transfer window gloom with this group as we did with Mr Bates

Speculation is the whole point of this website Cal ..........

Nowt wrong with a good conspiracy feeling to take into the weekend.

Personally at 12.15 tomorrow i'll be turning round and looking up from my seat at the Directors box. I'll be looking for a slumped, rather rotund figure wearing a large coat, hat and dark glasses. I'll also be looking for the giveaway scarf that covers up all there facial features - with the exception of the dark glasses of course.

The ba(s)tards up there somewhere i tell ya........

I don't want to spread alarm to the paranoid amongst you, but Ken Bates is actually watching you right now...!

He's hidden just over there, no there further over to your right...!

Bates isn't involved with gfh, but as I said the other day on here andy flowers is very good friends with Bates and similar in character.
