Lets all forget about this take over saga, GFH have managed to get through another transfer window without any major outlay- This for me is the main story.
The takeover was never going to happen its a smoke screen to take ours eyes off the transfer window!!
GFH are in it for the money and what better way to keep things bubbling over than to talk about the club being held up by investment from 3rd parties. We have made £20M over the last few years from transfer dealings alone. This would pay £3-5K wages a week for 30 players for 3 years. Obviously this doesnt include the gate receipts etc for money into the club and there are other outlays such as ground rent but things just dont add up in my mind.
We should be mid table in the Premiership when it comes to revenue, not still in the lower leagues after 11 years.
We are being taken for idiots and it is still going on!!
The Transfer Window is Nearly Closed

GFH are an investment company. They will only spend if it means they will make money in the end. They obviously realise spending more money now is not in the best interest of them and their investors.
Now unless someone with serious cash comes a calling we are stuck with GFH and they are stuck with us.
Which means will remain in the same position as we have been for 10 years
You guys no more about Leeds the city than I as I have only been there once, is it a viable option to buy the club or not.
Why would man city for example be a better option than leeds Utd?

This is something I have never understood. We have a bigger fan base than the likes of Man City and the city of Leeds is the 2-3rd biggest in England so the potential for our club has to be a lot bigger than Man City.
I can only think something or someone inside the club has consistently put possible backers off.
The only other option is the story that in the late 60s a gypsy put a curse on a club, this one is seeming more and more plausible.

I can see fans patience running out, tempers flaring, demonstrations against GFH and fans staying away from games, which will hurt GFH badly.

I really don't get the idea that you can appease fans for not spending in a transfer window by making them pee'd off for both not spending in a transfer window and having a failed takeover.
It doesn't make sense to me.
