Just add it to the list with the likes of running out of replica shirts, letting contracts of star players run down and congratulating a club who's fans attacked our own.
So is it true then?.. If it is, I don't think he officially leaves Leeds until 31st May! so another week of speculation then!!
Didn't Watkins say we would definitely be announcing it this week? Can't see it being that nailed on with that French bloke if Cryne or whoever didn't like the fact he wasn't able to speak English as that would have been a very early observation.
Absolutely no chance of JD coming back in whilst Cryne has any control of the club I think him and B Ben had a decent relationship until Ben quit for Dirty Leeds so maybe that can be patched up but not a chance with Dennis
If Patrick appoints a Chief Exec then I for one will be very disappointed. It obviously means that a change of ownership/directors is not going to happen. And the delay in appointing a CE IMO is down to movement behind the scenes to find new owners/directors. As for speculation about Big JD and Ben coming back - then there must have been some bridges built for that to happen. Can't see that happening. As for the Chinese connection- it would be great if that happens. I write this in a hotel room near to Beijing North Railway Station- there's some big big money in this country. What a city !!! Makes London or New York look like Wombwell.
You keep banging on about changing ownership & directors, be very careful what you wish for, because if it happened & went tits up, I can guarantee you will be the first to moan !
I agree with you Conan, however, out of respect to Patrick & his situatuion, I think it is wrong to be continually sniping & cynical about the ownership of the club.
