Syns monkeyspanks sier mye fornuftig her...

Despite all my doubts and gut feelings, I still can't see any way out of this for ken, at least not long term, and that is what keeps my hopes alive. I do believe that he is simply playing the game right to his very last breath (maybe literally)...firstly, to try and screw as much as he can out of the club and the buyers, and secondly because he simply wants to ensure that we have as little chance of getting promotion this year as possible, and this is being done for his own vanity and ego more than his desire to f**k us over.
Ken sees himself as a great, maybe the greatest chairman of all time...no-one knows more about running a football club than the great ken bates. He has been at Leeds for seven and a half years and as it stands we are no better off than we were when he started (i.e. mid table championship team). Despite all his 'business acumen', all his 'superior knowledge' of running a football club, ken has just f**ked up over and over again and he knows that if he had sold in the summer the new owners would have waltzed in, spent a few million, and bingo Leeds get promoted...and everyone (not just Leeds fans, but the media and football world) laughs at poor old ken and says "f**king hell, he spent seven years at Leeds and did f**k all apart from take them to their lowest position ever, then within 12 months new owners come in and get them promoted". Ken's ego won't stand for it. He wants this season f**ked up at least...and he's done a pretty good job so far unfortunately.
...jeg er ikke med på at Bates skulle ha noen interesse av å kjøre oss i grøfta, men ellers har han en del poenger
