    According to Sky, our prospective new owners are at the game today. Surely, with 20k people wielding camera phones, someone will manage a sighting of some of these guys around the hospitality suites or some such area. If you do find them, buy them a pint and make them feel welcome

    They did say that they are waiting for confirmation of that <ok> I think Sky have been listening to too many twitter rumours myself.

    Not the usual scene in the box. What exactly would a group of Middle Eastern-appearing men sat between Bates and Harvey suggest to you? Apparently they all asked for scarves from the club shop too. <ok>

    Need some better pictures than that. Couldn't tell if anyone out of them were Bates or Harvey, and just cos someone has a suntan and may "appear" to be from a different country does not mean they are anything other than regular sponsors or box holders.

    We have a very diverse population down here in Leeds <ok>, even some old twats with grey hair and beards <cough>

    If you can't see Bates in the last two you need your eyes testing.

    An old white guy with grey hair who has their hand to their chin? The guy I sat next to for the last 7 years in the Family Stand looks exactly like that, and there are many others.

    I'm not saying it isn't him. Iam saying that those photos are completley inconclusive and do not prove they are him.

    It will also be the first time I have heard of him sitting in the East Stand - not saying he wasn't there though

    An old man of Bates' exact build with a beard in the executive seats? You're right, could be anyone.

    Also last I checked regular box holders don't tend not to hang around in suits all in matching brand new scarves.
