He hand picked the Company he wanted to sell to because he knew they were clueless in football matters and that they would stuff it up. When he saw Cellino come onto the scene he rubbed his hands together. I would be interested to see how much he pays for Leeds. I bet it will be 50% less than what he sold it for. No point in complaining, at least he is prepared to get involved. Like it or not, the fact is Bates saved Leeds from folding. Now he has done it again and he is 84! Where all these rich Leeds supporters and consortiums? When they want cheap headlines they come out of the wood work. When it is time to put the money on the table they go back into hiding.
This was an April fools..
