"It's been a great afternoon. I enjoyed the win and enjoyed our vice-chairman being thrown out of the boardroom."

Ridsdale of course was the man who fronted Leeds Utd as they topped the Premiership and made the semi finals of the Champions League. The huge financial gambles taken then contributed to the fall of Leeds from the Premier League into the Championship and the financial heartache the found themselves in. Ridsdale by many in Yorkshire is seen as the man responsible.

Now they have former Chelsea Chairman Ken Bates in control and his comments on the allegeded removal of Ridsdale was

"It's a pack of lies but I'm sure he needs the attention."

Anyway it's a great story whether it's true or not.
