    And we thought Robson Rhodes were bad!

    They'll probably end up going down again at this rate.

    the administrators don't give a flying toss who buys it, they get their fee regardless. My guess is the Inland Revenue will get theirs back in full at some point, so they'll stop stamping their feet now.

    Everybody's happy, by everybody of course, I mean Ken, his mate at the administrators and the guy at the Inland Revenue who's just recovered £7mil.

    obviously this is not fact, it's just my imagination.

    It is incredibly funny.

    Almost as funny as 'top tier, top tier give us a song' which somebody invented last time we went to Elland Road.

    So what'll happen now?

    What's the likelihood of them starting the season and in League 1 at that?

    There's a meeting later this month with the league to discuss their participation in Division Three.

    You can, but you'll have to play against Cheltenham, Hartlepool and Bristol Rovers in your back garden next season.
