and all the rest of them ex-Chelsea boys, forget about Strachen and Vinnie,
no hold on, don't forget about Vinnie, I don't want me head slammed shut in a car
door... send him some free tickets for an executive box in the East stand, that will
keep him sweet and at the same time fill up another of those empty suites.
Do you think those chocolates from Chernobyl are putting the punters off?
Never mind here is the plan... this has to be done discreetly so as not to arouse
suspicion. Use the off-shore accounts... you know so nothing that can be traced.
Lets say about 100 accounts and spread the Howsen money evenly between them.
After the Brizzle game, lay the 2 mill that John Charles will be the new manager
at Leeds... you will get fantastic odds... yeah!!! yeah!!! I know he is dead, but I will
appoint him anyway. If anybody complains we can wheel out an empty coffin and
put it in the dug out for home games. Bad taste? Bad taste? Look Shawn this is business,
and I am not in it to please any of those hoity-toity nutters, or namby-pamby morons.
Haven't I told you again and again, morals and ethics have no part in making money.
What do you mean the fans won't stand for it? Who cares? Now get it done or you will
be the next one walking.
Suzannah!!! Suzannah!!! break out the Bolly and where's that damn remote control?
Un Marcelo Bielsa, solo hay un Marcelo Bielsa. Gracias Marcello. Marsching on together.

Imagining Ken's voice and general manner in the style of the Bishop from the Blackadder 2 episode Money. (The Bishop collecting the unpaid loan). " I AM THE BABY-EATING BISHOP OF BATH AND WELLS!!!".
A good fight should be like a small play...but played seriously. When the opponent expands, l contract. When he contracts, l expand. And when there is an opportunity... l do not hit...it hits all by itself.

Unfortunately all I can hear is Twiggs' GGL Ken impersonation...
Hi all
first time for me, im an old timer been watching Leeds a few year now, remember Grenville Hair, George Meek, Wibler Cush, Kirfoot and so on, been gong to Elland Road for 56 years.
whoever we get for the next manager wont make a lot of difference as the defence is none existant.
I would give the job to the most passionate manager in football at the moment, Paolo Di Canio. i know he aint got much experience but his passion mite rub off on the defence.
but i think he would only last about a month as that is the time it would take for him to loose it with Bates, and Knock him out.

Before you upset Ronan (uppity N Irish poster on here) - it's Wilbur - he was only called Wibler in his private life

Wax cylinder recordings of the first "Glory Glory Leeds City" podcast are still believed to exist in the Champion's Association Football Wireless Network archives.
"All of the information that you jolly well need to follow Leeds City, and a little further information no less!"
From his four years as a key member of the Chelsea midfield, he is also close with Bates and his wife Suzannah, so much so that Zoe, Di Matteo’s wife, and the couple’s children were guests at the United chairman’s 80th birthday party late last year.

Looks like Di Matteo and Bates are close chums.
Looking like a 2 horse race,only downside with Di Matteo is his defensive frailties whilst at West Brom,we really need someone who can tighten our defence. Lonegans comments yesterday were interesting "We did a real tactical session".
