Leeds fans are being taken for a ride - and they're paying for it!

Oh dear. Somebody has probably got too close to the truth so GFH Capital have rushed out a statement trying to calm everybody down. It seems the parent company let the cat out of the bag in the financial audited report, but that was scripted for one set of eyes, not for public consumption.

So, why exactly is the parent company saying one thing and the holding company another? Is this bank really in such a mess that the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing? Believe that if you will, but it is stretching credibility somewhat.

Leeds fans should be very worried. Why are the owners giving out these mixed messages? It seems that the parent company feel the need to suggest that there will be an injection of cash soon, which makes you wonder about their financial health. Why else would they make this statement, knowing it ran contrary to the message Haigh and Patel were  trying to disseminate?

Ed the Duck asked last week if the government could organise anything in a brewery and, of course, being an Islamic bank, GFH Capital clearly couldn't! And boy is it showing!

    West Ham should be very worried about a "supporter" who spends all his time trolling the net for angles to post on Leeds United. You really are obsesive fella. Are west Ham so boring that there isnt anything to blog about? Or is the point more a case of fellow West ham followers think your an embarrassment to them? I hardly see how a team run by a man who made his money from exploiting females can preach on morals. How much you in debt-or do you believe hes used his own money?

    being taken over by a bank that was at risk of going under always seemed iffy. Another thing that your crystal ball got right..... now if you could take another peak and tell me whether it's worth renewing my season ticket or not...

      I made my predictions on the earlier post. Byram will go. Money won't be reinvested. Same transfer policy as last summer. Club won't be sold this side of Christmas.

      why have you got 'good old days' in inverted commas Dave? Is Leeds really your second name? Bit of a coincidence that. Anyway nice to know what I'm going to be harping on about; have you borrowed Hammersfan's crystal ball?

      Narrowly avoid the drop. Lose Carroll in the summer. Struggle to find a replacement at a price we can afford. Struggle next season, narrowly survive. With move to OS confirmed, investment from Middle East or Russia. Sullivan & Gold make a tidy profit, if both still alive. Club grows on back of real investment in the squad. Gates increase. Club is established as one of the top 10 in the country.

    The whole affair is a complete mess. The danger is that the parrnt company could look to asset strip whatever profitable parts of the club actually exist or, worse still, bring on board a whole range of dubious buyers that would mean further stagnation in the board room. The only way out of this is a miracle run of good form and the premiership via the play offs. Unlikely! Look forward to another year in mid table mediocrity.

    Hello Mr Hardcore,i hope you can help me with something,your comments concerning the stench that surrounds club,that is west ham,yes? i only ask because to be honest i am not sure,but thats not what i need help with,it,s this,your blog about west ham fans went to press on monday 19;14,more than 24 hours after the event,why the delay?..it,s just looking back on other major events like the Leeds away game to sheff wens you went to press within minutes...and also made more than one comment concerning the sheff wens game,yet just the solo blog about west ham fans,several paragraphs about the Leeds fans behaviour,but just approx 2 about west ham fans behaviour....I know you won,t engage,print or debate about this because apathy is much easier.

      Very happy to oblige. As you say, I have condemned the behaviour of the West Ham fans and actually called on the Premier League to deduct points. That has outraged West Ham fans, so to suggest I am inconsistent is absurd.

      That said, nobody ran on to the pitch to attack the opposition goal keeper, and I may be wrong, but I don't think the West Ham manager accused the Chelsea players involved of taking a dive, nor, as far as I know, did he order the players over to applaud the fans after the game. If he did, I will condemn him too!

      Why are you so desperate to read about West Ham? Our manager hasn't asked to have a say in who replaces him and our owners haven't suggested the club is up for sale. And a 2-0 defeat away to Chelsea was a predictable result - at least we didn't let in five like Leeds. Meanwhile, the 2-1 defeat at home to Huddersfield was dreadful.

    Just to point out your general level of bullshit, here is the quote from Warnock which you have evolved into 'Warnock has given up
    "Saturday felt like a fatal loss because of the points situation but you just have to keep going.'

    You claim to be right all the time because you have a version of the truth known only to yourself.

    Oh, and don't make pithy comments about peoples spelling errors. I noticed your 'astute'spelt 'atute' the other day. Would your Father think this is very astute of you?
