I wouldn’t put it past him and I’m sure he would be welcomed aboard. Maybe Arky should him an invite.
3 November 2018 at 2:22 am #172848It really makes me quite emotional to think the Whelan family will no longer have anything to do with us.
That is a great letter and I bet it took a few drafts to get it right, how Big Dave and especially Sharpey must be feeling right now, we’ll never know.
I hope he shows his face and carries on supporting us.
We’ve had some brilliant times over the last 23 years, lets just hope the next 23 bring some more.
Good luck to Sharpey in whatever he does and a great big thank you to the whole Whelan Family for what they have done for this great club of ours.
Cheers for everything.Foo kin Hell Horc
If we do another 23 years, how old are we gonna be ? We’ll be chunnering on about how we won the FA Cup in 2013. Right owld farts !

I’ve heard he’s going to get Pemberton FC to the Prem in the next 11 years.
BTW – Whelans, thanks for my short but fantastic journey. I’ve had great times, got stacksa wonderful memories in my bag, met a load of lovely people and had some wonderful laughs. What more could I ask for??

Telling our grandkids whilst eating our werthers originals.
3 November 2018 at 1:07 pm #172852The end of a wonderful and fantastic era.All good things must come to an end, but its now onto another fantastic era for the club (fingers & toes crossed).
3 November 2018 at 1:52 pm #172854And hopefully back to the premier league to take the pifff again!
Be interesting to hear it from the horses mouth about their ambitions.3 November 2018 at 2:14 pm #172858And hopefully back to the premier league to take the pifff again!
Be interesting to hear it from the horses mouth about their ambitions.I’m sure we will get an official statement soon from our new owners.
Whether they state such ambitious plans as DW did when he first took over I’m not sure, but hopefully so.3 November 2018 at 2:47 pm #172860Greed League or not, there’s far worse things than being a yo-yo club between League One and the Championship and a few cup runs chucked in.
4 November 2018 at 2:45 am #172868Can we not get Whelan back on the pitch to remind those Leeds fans once again that they’ve won fook all for donkeys years. It’s got to be one of the best on pitch speeches I’ve ever heard…
Class :)4 November 2018 at 11:21 am #172870Sure im not the only one feeling apprehensive about this whole thing. A local businessman who has guided this fine ship through rough waters for so many years being replaced by some dodgy gets from Hong Kong who have no affiliation with the club. Seems an odd piece of business from their perspective. Doesnt make sense as to why we would be such an attractive acquisition. Our gates mean at this level we will always struggle without serious investment and with our most valuable asset set to leave in a few months the whole scenario appears bizarre.

Buying an established Premier League team would be expensive, but we are comparatively cheap (if you look at the purchase documents you will see that there was even a knock-down in the value of the assets because of the relegation to League One and consequent loss of TV money). So we are cheap, but we have a pedigree of being in the Premier League and the FA Cup win raised our profile. With a fair wind it’s not impossible for us get back in the PL in the foreseeable future, and that would really boost the asset value.
It’s a no-brainer actually. We are a far better prospect than Rotherham or Brentford.4 November 2018 at 2:41 pm #17287322 million for the lot is an absolute bargain. The land and real estate alone is worth that. Not to mention a paying tenant and the value of players.
One step from the Greed League with a stadium ready and all the infrastructure. A no brainer really if they are looking ahead to a massive income from the aforementioned league.4 November 2018 at 7:24 pm #172875Dont look much different to Rotherham or Brentford to me. Must be big odds to return to premier league.
