It goes from bad to worse! Crying or Very sad

Quote:
Leeds United have been barred from full membership of the Football Association after being unable to prove all their non-football creditors have been paid.
The League One side still owe unpaid tax and VAT to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) following their spell in administration earlier this year.

United will still be able to compete in all competitions, including the FA Cup.

However, they will be unable to vote at any FA general meetings or receive FA Cup final tickets, as other clubs do.

A statement on the club's website read: "The club has made an application to the FA to transfer full membership following administration.

"The Football Association have not yet approved this request as we have been unable to demonstrate that all non-football creditors have been satisfied.

"All monies owed to other football clubs and members of the football family have been met in full.

"The reason that non-football creditors have not yet been satisfied is that the CVA (Company Voluntary Arrangement) was not completed due to the stance of the HMRC.

"The club would prefer to be a full member of the FA, but it is also comfortable that not being a member will not prevent us from doing anything we need to do."

The club's failure to agree a CVA, as per the Football League's rules governing insolvency, has already cost them a 15-point penalty which the League imposed in early August.

However, the Yorkshire club have won their first four league games, reducing the deficit to minus three points.

well using the BBC predictor system i have worked out it is mathmatically possible for Leeds to be top at christmas , they would have to win every game though . Wink

i tried to work out each game as fair as i could ..except for Leeds who i just put down as a win each game to see if it was possible to for them to be top by christmas , games are up to and including 22nd december ..next games were on Boxing day so were not included .

Assuming they win all their games they'd finish on 123 points, 18 more than the quoted 105 needed to win the League. But that's not going to happen!

i was for the proper devostated with the result i couldnt belive what i was watching the pools had the majority of the first half and nearly all the second half.
the game had the markings of god been on leeds side 2 shots on goal for leeds, the one from beckford was a cracker.
the pools hit both posts and had 2 cleared of the line also one of your defenders punched the ball away and the ref with his white t-shirt hid underneath his top didnt do a thing.
the deciding factor is that leeds had two sharp strikers and beckford looks a touch of class for the league annd if he has a great season he will be sold quick as you like:)

i a nicer note apart from the result i had a great day few good pubs went into tried the peacock but there was a pitch battle in the bar with chairs Laughing .
i havent seen trouble like that for years do you lot still live in the 80s.
and you were only fighting amongst yourselfs Very Happy .
i got the 51 to the ground but walked back to the city centre took me about 30mins.

we went for indian in the alll you can eat place, very nice .
few more pints and headed of home.
hopefully when leeds come to the pools you play well but we get the points this time Very Happy .

ok good song but heres a few off mine if you were at the match you would of heard them.

1. youuuuurrrrrr not famous anymore and so on.

2. whaaatttts it like to be in debt """""""""""""""""""

3. 2 nil and your still on nil 2nil and your still on nill!!!!!....

and on that note it proves as i witnessed your like some off the fans down there, you dont seem to be too bright do you Crying or Very sad

the majority of the leeds fans seem to be a good bunch but theres always 5% that cant think off anything constructive, and your in the majority Rolling Eyes

so my question is did you go the match and if so what was your honest opinion of the game.

and dont quote what the national papers or sky say as you may be aware they write a story but never seem to see what people watch.

i have to agree with you with kandol and beckford, they had robbie elliot running around like a headless chicken.
but as they say goals make points, so even if we did play and look like ac milan on the pitch it dosent mean zilch Wink .
and we always have a good following away matches, i think there was between 2.500 and 3000 thousand of us at elland road.( we took 11000 to sunderland a few seasons ago, that was the biggest gate sunderland had that season too.)
and of course the pools will always out sing leeds we no more songs than just !YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE! hahahaha.
but saying that had a great day even after the match walking back from the ground , talked to a few leeds fans, and they give us good praise. good fun.
i dont think there are many teams in this division for both pools and leeds to worry about, so i see you getting promotion and us easly top 8 and that will do me fine for the first season up.
p.s the only team to watch out for are doncaster they are the only decent team we have come up against this season hahahaha.
