    Some fan running a pirate radio called him

    http://mixlr.com/whiteleeds/showreel/whiteleedss-mixlr-40/

    22:30 onwards...

    Fan: "You ruined Leeds United"
    Bates: "Did I f*ck, I put £20 million in to it, what did you put in?"

    Bates: "How many hours have you put into Leeds United?"
    Fan: "Loads"
    Bates: "********!"

    The fan, in his comedy voice, ends up calling him a scumbag. A quality listen!

    It's all the range these days. All I could think of was South Park

    He proberbly did put £20million in but I bet he took £60 million out,people like Ken Bates don`t go throwing money about unless they are going to make money,it had to be Leeds he went to, he sure wouldn`t have gone to Stockport

    10 point deduction for Leeds & they would only be 2 points ahead of us....

    I THINK it's 10 points initially and then if the club goes into admin for the second consecutive season or twice within an 18 month period it's then 15 points. So I think they would only be deducted 10 points. I remember that was the case with Bournemouth

    PS I may have this totally wrong though!

    Really? I thought going into administration more than once in a ten year period caused Luton, Bournemouth & Rotherham to receive an increased points deduction, along with a failure to obtain a CVA. Also, Luton's admission of numerous financial irregularities gave them an additional deduction.

    Thinking about it, as I wasn't sure that what I was putting was correct I shouldn't have really posted it in the first place!! I'll blame it on insanity too

    I shall bring you some that you can glue to yours as I'm having it cut soon. It's down to my waist and as I'm 40 this year I've decided I'm too old for long hair. Only one or two greys though!! Do you have a copy of that picture?
