My thoughts:
Despite the fact we've moved up a league since last time we met (and how glorious was that result?), I don't think our chances of getting anything out of this have increased.

Can I just say that this is the only fact that needs drumming into Ken Bates noggin!

That is a pathetic turnout for a club like Leeds United in a cup game against a club like Manchester United.

Sorry for late reply, been in Wales for three days (punishment) I think the point probably got through the moment he saw the balance sheet. I do not care what others say about our current position etc, why there was such a low turnout, ie TV, midweek etc, in years gone by that would have been a full house, you know it and I know it.
I think KB will have taken note of the gate and will take note of the gate at the next home game.
He must surely see that the crowds are staying away.
I think you are simply a gog! Whatever one of them is?

And how do you predict he will react?

That is something I have no answer for. My hope is he will see the light and improve the squad.
However, what you and I think of him apart, I believe the only way to affect him is financially. Insults, chants and protests are futile, he's too thick skinned.
Leeds United will be here after Ken Bates has been long gone.
I happen to think we'll be in a better position than where we stood financially after Peter Ridsdale departed and in time I believe most fans will recognise that he turned the club around, admittedly with a bit of pain along the way.
Do you know what he'll do?

My prediction is that he may well leave Leeds United in ruins just as he promised he would do one day (whilst at Chelsea).
He may eclipse Peter Ridsdale's legacy and then some.
Just take a look at what he has done elsewhere.
Why should this be any different?
