    Ken Bates says he can't believe Norwich offered so much money for Jonny Howson when he;s injured, plus he's out of contract in the summer!

    It's called ambition Mr. Bates, wanting to steal a march on other clubs who would have been interested in adding him to their squad on a free!
    Paul Lambert and David Macinally have obviously decided that what Howson has to offer is well worth the outlay! You've not gained £2 million Mr. Bates, you have lost a prized asset! Enjoy the money, and the hate of the Leeds fans for whom you have a total lack of consideration!

    Captain of Leeds since 19? Obviously didn`t rate him then ,Lambert is quoted as saying "<fuc-kall> as he has more class than that ....

    I like the bit abot "the final decision was left with the manager". Talk about passing the buck <doh>
    Also shows how much he thinks of the club and it's fans <doh>

    Quite clearly a rearguard action by Fat Ken.A friend at the gym who supports Leeds is sick and reckons he is an absolute bargain.

    Bates has little or no respect for his own club, players and fans. It comes as no surprise he has none for your lot either. Good luck with Howson, he'll be a great signing for you

    Being a Leeds fan is pretty painful at the moment with Bates in charge, to be honest I am glad he comes out with mindless **** like this as it enforces to the rest of the world why so many Leeds fans want the parasite out of our club and shows he knows nothing about modern day football.

    You can picture the conversation between Bates and Grayson:

    Bates: Howson wants to leave for 2 million if he goes now you can have it to strengthen the squad, if not you get nothing he walks on a free as I am not giving in to his wage demands

    Grayson: I will take the 2 million and here is my shopping list of replacements.

    Bates: We can't afford them, they want too much and I forgot to tell you the Howson money won't clear until Feb.

    Would anybody want to buy Leeds?
    If so, how much?
    Would Bates sell or would he stay out of sheer bloody mindedness?

    Genuine questions btw.


    Could anyone take a contract out on him to help you Leeds fans ease your pain? <laugh>

    The thing is this kind of statement might calm a few knuckle draggers but the majority are realising he's sucking the club dry and they'll not move forward without him.

    I used to hate Leeds, but no longer, the fans are passionate and I see a bit of us in them. There's respect there I think. Even if we do both have our moments.

    Its a sad state of affairs when a great club like leeds and its fans have to bow down and agree with a fan from a carrot crunching no mark club like norwich but thats how it is at the moment im afraid, but in time the carrot crunchers will take there rightfull place in the lower leagues and we will be back up there staring down

    A post full of enlightenment and foresight. Now **** off! When was the last time Leeds finished above Norwich in the league pyramid?

    I'm with beefy on this one. I think there is a certain respect born out of fierce competition between the mjority of our fans. We respect that Leeds have the potential to be massive again when the right leadership is installed. I think that the majority of Leeds fans see that we have the right Leadership and look at us as what they could've/should've done.

    What was going through your mind when you posted this?

    Was it an episode of soccer AM from 2005?
