    Bloody hell, he was seething. I hope no one cut him up on his drive home, he'd have ripped 'em out of the car and eaten them.

    I loath that kind of attitude from players. Money driven, (why else go from Leeds to Blackburn) and happy to effectively go on strike at the club paying their wages in order to push through their desired move. Wrong.

    Are Leeds still in loads of debt or are the OK now? Because I'd have thought they were a dream of a club to take over and progress. Not many other clubs have such potential yet they seem to be in continuous chaos.

    I am led to belive that the unrest came about because the players were asked to go in for training on Xmas day and then travel to Blackpool and stay overnight for a game that didn't kick off untill the evening.

    Their current takeover is about to fall through and current owners are desperate to get out. Rumour is that they may struggle to pay next months wages and could even be on brink of administration.

    Leeds fan at work reckons administration is just around the corner if they don't find a buyer soon, and like you say this current negotiation is about to collapse. His prediction is that they will sell McCormack, go into admin, and go down. He says they are bobbins with only McCormack having any quality, doesn't think they will be capable of a win without him.

    Didn't see that coming.

    Wonder if Kebe and Stewart were brought in because they thought the takeover was imminent
