You can't sack Bates as he apparently owns the club.

Any posters to ja606 got the spare change to buy him out?

The hooligan tw@ts who kicked in Chelsea's nice new scoreboard all those years ago have got a lot to answer for .. sow the wind and ye shall reap the whirlwind etc

740, so did Bates actually say "I will not rest until I see leeds ruined" after that incident?

All his targets have gone elsewhere because Bates will not spend a penny.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can you name the players you definately know were targets that went elsewhere?? So he's not got a squad on wages which will reach £9-10m this year?

if he had invested just a little of the millions he has taken out
------------------------------------------------------------------
So you can show he's taken funds out of the club??

Bates Owns Leeds get over it.

Put your money where your mouth is and buy the club yourself.

Otherwise support the club and change the record.

Jonty,

Stockdale..........but Lonergan was his first choice and that's who we got.
Bowyer............this was all down to location apparently.
Andrews.........yes, this was down to wages. Can't believe he's on £20k plus at Blackburn. How much are Ipswich paying??? Did they ask us to pay more initially then reduce it when we declined at a later point.

Cas, if Lonergan was his first choice then why were we chasing the better keeper in Stockdale?

You asked for players we missed out on, I gave you some examples.

Bates appears to own the football club and even have a hold on ER.
However without the fans he has very little
