This thoroughly annoyed me: "SIMON GRAYSON has vowed that Leeds will carry on being the Championship’s Great Entertainers – even if it costs them promotion."
Watching Swansea was not fun, Simon. We lost. We were outplayed because of frailties that you cannot correct. The reason is probably because we are being ruined and not run by an avaricious Ken Bates. *It is now obvious that when our needs do not compliment those of Bates then we suffer. * *It is also obvious that we have the nucleus of a team that can get promoted.* *To do so we have to invest.* *In other words the making of monies is used for that purpose. * * * *Some teams do that entirely.* *Some do that partially.* *We do not do it at all.* * * *Money, all of it, is removed by an opaque management.* *Opaque in its identity and opaque in its dealings. * * * *Most owners know little about football and see it as a business and a prestige object. A business that involves investment and the prestige allows them not to expect rampant profits. We laugh at their naivety and vanity.* * * *Leeds United is the complete opposite. A cynical soccer savant heading a management team that is fleecing us. * *Nothing more and nothing less. * * * *Bates has passed his shelf life expiry date. * *Bates cynicism and exploitation are there for all to see. * * * *We live in an age where potentates from the Middle East are both investing in UK clubs and learning the price of exploitation.* *Bates has done neither.* * * *Quit the B-S and quit the club, Bates.* * * *Michael* * * * *Dr Michael Benjamin, Community Psychiatrist ------------------------------- myRay: On-line Self-Help CBT http://www.myRay.com ------------------------------ Mental Health: http//www.MyDoctorExplains.com -------------------------------- Auditing || Quality Control http://www.MyDoctorExplains.com/alamo/ -------------------------------- Blog: http://www.DrMichaelBenjamin.com _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman-new.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] MARCHING ON TOGETHER
