    A bit like Mike Ashley's existence. Fat useless parasite.

    Does anyone seriously believe for one second that Staveley just turned up at some curry house randomly to interrupt Ashley's ruby murray and that the press just happened to be in the area to capture it?

    Nope. I set up a poll to test this very question.

    good point
    just reminded me of the story of a Newcastle employee who was sent out to remove the signs St James' Park from the wall outside main entrance
    he was told he had to remove it at 10am no earlier
    it just so happened that the media had their cameras ready outside the main door
    set up big style

    true story

    Ashley arranged the meeting and told his mate Desmond about it. Staveley was photographed unflatteringly smoking a fan. I am actually willing to believe a lot of what she has said. Ashley is playing a game, trying to paint her and PCP out to be cowboys.

    Ashley was the one that leaked it to his pals. He invited her for 'talks.'

    Leeds need a new stadium and have crowds 20000 lower than us. I think we are a better buy.

    Clear Mike wants to sell but is not desperate. Its in his interest now to splash on players to keep us up. Knowing him it will be minimum possible though and probably expensive loans so no long term commitment. If he keeps us up he can justify the extra 100mill on the price and I am sure there will be competition.

    I think Bournemouth illustrate to a degree crowd size doesn't really come into it though elland road does hold 38000. And needs money spent on it I think leeds ud is a brand that could be made huge again . I do do agree though we are at the moment a better option

    Staveley will increase her offer once we are safe. Ashley, despite all of his bluster, will sell to PCP, despite what the 'sources' say.

    Ashley will either increase his asking price following the announcement of the new TV deal, or take us off the market claiming he did all he could and there was no suitable buyers.
