Money available for transfers, owners showing ambition....

I really can't see him going though, I imagine Leicester are looking for someone with experience of promotion from this division.

Jonty... again your comments about the chairman... now, Leeds are doing well yes? - if you don't think so that's a different thing.. but lets say you actually think Leeds are doing well so far this season..... ok, so how would spending money improve us, or do you think the transfers / sellings of players is actually good business?

personally, I thought the same, Bates has no ambition, why aren't we offering money to other clubs for thier players... but now, sitting pretty as we are I have conceded that Bates / SG sat down and talked about the squad for this season? - and came up with the right answer...

If we win the ccc this year, would you have still wanted us to buy players? that we don;t need?

"Money available for transfers, owners showing ambition"

Maybe it's because your English isn't very good as you keep telling us.

Lashed asked why would Grayson go to Leicester and I was answering with some things that might be reasons a manager would go to Leicester.

You are reading things into it that aren't there just because you want to try and have a go at me.

Give it a rest eh?

- my English is brilliant, no so hot at English spellings however

you know what you meant Jonty... results / league positions are often a sign of ambition of the club / chairman, wasteful spending sceams bad business... something we can't accuse Mr Bates of.

when in L1 we bought players from rivals teams, we were always striving for promotion.. now, in the ccc, we finished 7 in the first year, and look as though we could better this year... is that not ambitious enough or should we have spent loads of money on players like Leicester, currently behind us in the ccc...

is this ambition si?

Like I said, you're looking for something that isn't there.

Ok Jonty - if you say so thats good enough for me...

Tuscany, I myself want Bates OUT no matter what even if we get promoted even if we then get into the CL, even if we win the FACup. The way he conducts himself, he does business etc........anyway we digress. May be Jonty any given manager who takes over at a new club needs the guarantee of funds available, I think Larry forgave that as he was offered his dream job

In Larry We Trust.....

MOT without Bates !!!!

Leicester has to be an attractive proposition for a manager in this league.

It seems liek Leicester are loking for a quick promotion and in that case I'd be looking for a manager with experience of getting promotion from this league.


Mccarthy, Keane, Jewell even Peter Reid are folk who have achieved that, but to find the right one who has done it, done it recently, and would be amenable to move to Leicester is a tougher ask.

the thing is lashed, your saying you want Bates out even if we got into the CL, that's madness, wouldn't that be Bates making Leeds are progressing - your letting your hatred for Bates cloud your reason - as a head of a big company (that's essentailly what LUFC is) your not going to be liked si? - he conducts himslef like any business man, or most... a hard nosed guy, who makes money... Lashed, that's life mate, my floor staff look the other way when walk in, they don't want me to task them with anything - I can see it a mile off, it's like they stand to attention, and try look busy... I'm not at all bothered, I have many friends, and a big family, wether or not a guy on the floor likes me or not.. I want to make money, and lots of it...

the last time I liked a chairman was Mr Ridsdale, I'll say no more...

I'm still plumping for a mid-table spot by May, as don't think we're strong enough. We look good on paper at the minute, but if the posh game had been different we would be back down the table. Only a couple of points are the difference between top 6 and 12th. We scrape 3 points tonight we're top 2, but still only a few points from mid-table. Theres still plenty of good teams who#ll come up on the rails, and had fester scraped a draw instead of getting beat, Sven would still be on target, and in fact they are still on target now

Never forget fester, Ipswich, Cardiff or even Brighton, besides the teams already in the top 6

New manager is going to want to bring in new staff wether it be players or coaches, think Foxes have done us all a favour & lot the plot, but then I spose better now than later. Larry was always going to be linked

Ok Lashed, I wouldn't mind I don't even like Bates - I can understand him though you know?
