Players are all called in today for talks. Not been paid yet and a 'winding up order' in court in weeks. Sacked the manager last week and looking grim for them.
I won't gloat on other clubs financial trouble as we have been there before.
However
Cheeky McCormack bid? |  | | |  |

Feel sorry for their fans. Don't really like then but we know the pain of a financial crisis. However, I do agree a bid for one of their players should be done |  |

I fecking hate their fans, biggest c unts in football, horrible, horrible backwards lot,
those who were there in 87 will testify to that
also their bulling of mums & kids ordinary fans is legendary at HQ
I hope they go to the conference north and their stadium turns into a massive Primark |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

'87? Was that the FA Cup game at Elland Road. Me and my brother we in the Leeds end (west stand alongside the pitch). Even guys in wheelchairs wanted to get at our fans when we equalised! |  | | |

I'd make a bid for their main stand, that big 3 tiered one |  |

Well they're halfway there.... most of Primark North's stock is in there every other week!
I'd nab McCormack plus they have a young defender who is pretty good (name escapes me)
So now we are a circling vulture instead of the festering carcass.

Surely there is a Don Revie dossier in a filing cabinet somewhere marked 'open when skint and on 25th dodgy owner'- that ought to tell them what to do next. |  | | |

Never like to hear of football clubs in financial quagmires, regardless of their fans, history etc. Sounds like the Italian is going to be as underhanded and shady as his past suggests. A Leeds friend of mine was delighted when he took over — at least they had someone to pay the wages, or so he thought... | | | |

Starts to make an even greater mockery of the fit and proper persons test.
Oh hang on, its the unfit and improper persons test, now I understand the qualification requirements. |  |

They never fully recovered from when they did a Leeds ten years ago. They're still doing it really, although they could well be upgraded into a Portsmouth the way things are going. |  | | |

Going to have to do a bit of reading into this because this really doesn't make sense.
The new Italian guy fought tooth and nail, got refused first time round, took the league to court, bought the club - and now he can't pay the wages after a month? WTF is going on?
Oh, and

Well it looks like the winding up order has frozen the clubs bank account, hence the players not getting paid. All other staff have been paid out of a private bank account but according to some rule or another it is not allowed for players to be paid this way.
Hope they go to the wall. Can't stand the w*****s. |  | | |

hereford could be in court again for a winding up order, not paying and ex manager?

Remember the many many 'stays of execution' they had ( unfairly in my eyes) to stop them going fully into administration while they waited for Master Bates to come along.
Rule for 1 and a rule for the European champions.
Go, and go now Leeds! I hate you almost as much as 'that' team in south west London! |  |

Sam Byram would be worth a cheeky bid. He would be a great backup to Simpson and still only 20! |  |

I don't understand how a club can lurch from crisis to crisis like this. Some ancient Turkish curse perhaps? Only when Leeds fans show some humility will they ever break the curse.
So never, of course.

Thats the chap.
Always looked pretty good when I've seen him playing on tele like.
As for layers wages and frozen accounts v staff being paid via other means I recall this was brought in due to ourselves. Or more exactly Brentfart complaining about the Wintons and Big Dan and Little DoDo - I have sketchy recollections of a league rule hastily being brought in that all playing staff expenditure needed to go through one trading account for the club as a result.
Which brings me onto...
I detest Leedscum.
I've had my run in's in the past and it truly is a backwards place.
However it's not so long ago we couldn't pay St Johns Ambulance, the training pitch fee's or our saviour Jamie Cureton. That does temper my views towards other clubs in this predicament.
There's only a few clubs I'd gladly see go to the wall. One is obvious. The others I have varying deep dislike for. | |
