I think its shocking behavior from Radz to be honest, openly shopping around and buying another club when his current club is fighting a relegation battle, it just shows hes not committed to Leeds.

Yep, it's very reflective of the last 2 years... he's done some good things and is our best owner for a long time but he's really messed up and has undone a lot of the good work. It's very incompetent not to have a deal sorted with the 49ers whichever eventuality.. it's damaged the club.

I personally don't care. I want him gone, and if this is the quickest way for that to happen, then fine by me.

It looks like it. He's removed Leeds United from his twitter bio. That's how things get announced these days, apparently

The fog will hopefully lift after Sunday.

I just hope we have a plan in place for both eventualities and can hit the ground running with cleaning out the turgid playing staff and getting a PROVEN manager / backroom staff in to start working with the players. We cant just throw money around we need an actual plan and some stability to truly get the best out of what we have.

Leeds is a big club - don't buy into this everyone raises their game stuff. It needs a good owner who will invest and grow the club. 3/4's of the ground need knocking down and rebuilding - the Etihad is great blueprint for what could be achieved.

The new owners need to employ the correct manager and football director and possibly a new CEO - draw a line in the sand use this season as a day of reckoning. The future is in bringing through quality youngsters like Cresswell and Gray - they will at least be committed to the club.

the idea is build over the top like Liverpool did thus keeping attendances high.
you can't do anything with the south stand as the road is right behind it. plans are to raise the limit to 65000

Lets hope so. I'd be hoping the new owners are planning right now and have been for the last 3 or 4 weeks. There's only 51 days of the transfer window to sort all the comings and goings out and we've not even started. We will do very well to be in good shape for season start.

There`s a hell of a lot to sort with the backroom staff before we even consider the player roster ins and outs.
Silly as it seems but if we are going down (most likely) it would have been better for that to happen a few weeks ago to give us more time to get sorted.
We need like you say a Chairman a CEO a DOF and a Manager in place before we can get rid of players and bring others in.
50 or so days is not a long time considering we have pre season games to play and get the team up to speed with the new tactics.
