cos they don't know what to do or they do & don't want to let anything slip just before they send Colin packing
Why would Ken be telling him what to do?
Because ken is still in charge.
I believe gfh still have some criteria to meet hence bates still being in picture.
I believe it will end in tears for gfh.
Anddonrevie has good handle on what is going on.
Because deep in all the paperwork and shady dealings Ken is still the owner
You base your decision on GFH by watching their twitter accounts!
How quaint!
Anybody who's profile pic is atleast 5 stone lower than his actually weight, can not be trusted
Intact is it even the same person
How is Ken still in charge? GFH 100% Buyout in Dec.
It does say hes in Dubai at present, maybe hes trying to get some more cash
As each day goes by im more and more convinced that its all a big cover up for Bates....our intent in the January transfer market (given NW's pre-christmas emphasis on it) is proving me right!
Ive read a few comments on here saying "maybe they are waiting to invest in the summer"....sorry but we need it NOW, if you believe that then you've had the wool pulled over your eyes just as Bates did for 7 years....we are going nowhere fast with a manager who, in fairness, has an ok squad, but cant get them playing because all we are playing is hoofball
Barnsley was the last straw, we havent played ANY decent football for months
"How is Ken still in charge? GFH 100% Buyout in Dec"
do i have to spell it out?
And why do you think he is being quiet? He's been hammered with questions by leeds fans about warnock and the team, he can't comment about it, especially on twitter, that would be worrying if he did as it's massively unprofessional.
I'm sticking up or taking sides, it's just common sense why.
Im not getting at Haigh in what im saying, i dont care what he posts on twitter....im just talking about the whole picture....i smell a rat....or 3
David Haigh, isn't this the same guy who likened us to a "young Pamela Anderson"?... Suggesting we are primed for another long, drawn out, Bates-style shafting I guess?
I mean if GFH are just cowboys out to rinse the club dry, you'd think they could at least make an effort to hide those ambitions, eh?
.... Instead of making it so obvious to all of us, through the total absence of any meaningful communication, coherent long term plans or meaningful transfer activity for the club.

It's all speculation and personal opinion as to whether or not it's a Bates cover up, there is no evidence to suggest this.
Just because gfh have not spent millions in jan.
Your right there is no evidence....but the fact we cant afford players and our big signings are 3 loand players, 2 who we already had previously, it all seems a bit familiar doesnt it?
Of course i am just speculating as i know nothing, but im not the only one who has lost faith in us getting promotion this or any season in the near future

I am with you on this one .
This takeover has the smell of bates still lingering all over it .
Think Leeds United PR is Proper Rubbish (Get It !)

Don't get me wrong mate, I'm really unhappy with the way things are, it's just too soon to judge the new owners, i will be the first to be on their backs of nothing changes in the summer.
I hope if they are keeping Warnock until the summer (it looks that way) they don't let him buy anymore players this jan.
According to sports mole this morn, we tried to sign Kevin Doyle, but can't afford the wages. Surprised?
I'd be reluctant to give NW any money too, but if thats the case then he should be shown the door, because thats admitting weve written this season off!
NW keeps coming out with statements like he's spoken to agents about players etc etc like we have to accept we cant get players in, but every other club seems to manage quite alright....i honestly thought he was the best man for the job when he walked in, but the performances have been woeful, it was beyond disgusting on saturday!
Peltier at left back every week when we have Drury....no width yet Hall on the bench....bypassing of an entire midfield to just launch the ball as far as possible....its the worst football ive ever seen
Didn't GFH pass the "fit and proper" ownership test - surely that means they must be okay ......
I've thought from the outset that Bates is somewhere in the ranks of GFH (or has connections). I'd put NOTHING past him.
Remember the light Grayson shed on his 'frustrations' at Elland Road working undr Ken Bates?
As has been said over and over again, it is no coincidence the way the club is conducting affairs over the January Transfer windon - there's clearly been no change of guard take place just yet.
I'd suggest that the 'deposit' has been paid to secure 'nominal' control and nothing more, until the rest of the money is stumped up. I get the impression that the bill for buying the club hasn't even been met as yet let alone for new players. And if they haven't paid up everything for the club, then clearly that means much limited funds available for player investment.

I think if GFH fail to meet all takeover criteria then you'll see Bates 'saving' Leeds again.
Sooner he is completely disconnected from club the better.
I am really sorry to say this but I think this will only happen when he has passed on.
