looks like george boyds loan move to palace is off - darren ferguson unhappy with the way holloway has treated him - come on gfh get in!
The boy Boyd really ain't that good, move on from this rumour. some tin pot premiership club like Norwich or Wigan would've taken him by now if he had any talent

Adam Pearson wants to takeover Leeds utd, where was he 8 mths ago when the club was for sale, the man's a joke couldn't even afford it, look what he did for hull got them promoted realised he was out of his depth got relegated then sold it just what we want for Leeds its.
Not a takeover just wants to be involve i. e chairman. Blimey how these things get blown up.

I'm sure Adam Pearson isn't a joke, where did he say he wanted to take over? I would welcome his input!
Maybe he's the man who put the money up and GFH are working on his behalf.
Maybe he's testing the water, see the reaction, before he becomes chairman, who knows.
At least it's all good publicity for us as a club.

So a man who left a club for a couple of years then decides to go back, bacwards and forwards that is a joke, he's a joke
He doesn't wanna take ova, he wants to join gfh and be chairman
Even with the relegation he has left Hull in a stronger position than he found them in. This is an opportunity tp remove Bates totally as the new owners say he is staying due to their limited knowledge in running a club. I think this will say more about the new owners relationship with Bates depending on the outcome.
GFH are courting investors and Adam Pearson is an interested party and no doubt would like to be chairman but if he has money to invest let's invite him. They all have interest in LUFC becoming a prem brand again as come the 2016 season Google and Al Jezeera Qatari based news agency and sports network are coming in to bid for the premiership. This will dwarf next years average of 90 million for prem teams so the real goal may be a 3 or 4 year planto take us back there. Just my thoughts but GFH will be acutely aware of this potential Middle East involvement.
He actually said that he would like to be involved in a consortium with a club with huge potential and Leeds fits his remit and that he has also worked at ER before. just to clear that up for all you people who either listen or read half a tale. just saying
and m
Pearson is credible and has a good name. He has been in discussions before and he is about the only person that Bates did not dismiss as a time waster.
However, there is a sense of frustration to be faced with more uncertainty and the fact he has expressed an interest once the transfer window is shut.
Just love chinese whispers
form "i want to be involved with a consortium " to "gonna take over Leeds UTD " in how many goes
admittedly he did speak for
speculation

reports that Pearson wants to take over Leeds
{Ed013's Note - Adam Pearson as Chairman, not Nigel as manager}
What will the summer hold for us TOMA-2? I very much doubt GFH will own us in 18, months time
He doesn't want to take us over, as in buy the club, but he has obviously noted Bates will step aside in the summer leaving a vacancy. Plus he has previous experience at Leeds. GFH will want an expert in charge, and someone to take the flak, so they can return to there normal business. I personally hope Salem Patel takes on the mantle, having listened to him speak he seems very capable. Pearson as an advisor on the board, I can see that.
I believe he wants to go in with GFH, not take over. The short interview is on the beeb site.

This looks like a great addition if true.
Pearson knows his way around a football club. He will provide the balance between the football and the finances.
I used to work at leeds and as I started, a few months prior, Adam Pearson had left. . all I heard was positive things about him so if he does come into the club in some capacity then I can only see it as a good thing

I think it would be a good move, he did a excellent job with Hull taking them to the promised land. APN 63
As novices, GFH could certainly do with a hand. Would be in favour. Chapel A
Where was he for the last six months, it sad as leeds fans we will grab onto any suggestion to help us out of this long running nightmare, no hope of any promotion if their is no investment, and a decent forward thinking manager in place sorry but that's the truth
