I'm feeling rather optimistic this morning, and it got me thinking who would be a worse Chairman than Ken Bates Don't get me wrong I have not gone all misty eyed on the Ex Chelsea Tax Exile, but things could be worse, not much worse I admit, but I could find 5 worse men for the job: 1. Kim Jong Il, North Korea please log in to view this image Kimâs government represses its people more completely than any other living dictator. 2. Robert Mugabe, Zimbabwe please log in to view this image Bobby is a naughty boy, according to Amnesty International, in 2002 alone, Mugabeâs government killed or tortured 70,000 people. 3. Sepp Blatter, Switzerland please log in to view this image Blatter has often been dogged by controversy and allegations of corruption, Sepp pushed democracy and he was recently elected in a fair election where he was the only candidate. 4. Sir Fred Goodwin, Scotland please log in to view this image RBS reported that while Sir Fred was at the helm it had posted a loss of £24.1bn, the biggest loss in UK corporate history. 5.

Along with Peter Risdale, I'd also go with Red bull, if they bought Leeds we'd be Red Bull Leeds (or Leeds United Red Bull), have our kits changed and our team colours would be red, white and black, we'd have tons of money for players and probably be relocated to Dublin or Belfast or another bigger British city where there are more "potential fans".
True: But I left passed failures off.... Here is an dishonrable mention to Mr Ridsdale (pictured), (Mr Ridsdale has gone to Barnsley, Cardiff and Plymouth, who have all faced the prospect of winding up orders) Professor John McKenzie please log in to view this image (Whereabouts unknown) Trevor Birch please log in to view this image (Now doing a great job with Sheffield United in League One ) Gerald Krasner please log in to view this image (Has gone on to help Bournmouth recieve a 17 point deduction & almost go bust) They all could have made the list, but I doubt any would risk entering Leeds again....
