A bid is just that surely, followed by counter bid etc. > No, but the 7m figure was already out there so why not mention it. > The £7m was a 'believed to be' figure as far as I know, but as GFH claim that 'no serious approach had been made by any members reportedly concerned' there's very little for LUST to comment on. > 5) What is it about LUST you don't like?

With the greatest of respect I'm nothing to do with LUST, though I commend their efforts. The dissident voice went a long way to pushing Bates out, he had income below his expectations and sold for less than he originally thought he could get. GFH played hard ball for 6 months because they had him over a barrel, not wholly but partly due to the efforts of LUST. I'm sure LUST would have begun in Betty's Tea Rooms if the damn queues hadn't been so long. Are you saying that being a Leeds United supporter makes everything I do wrong?
