<div class="quote_poster">Riano Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Ouch... I feel sorry for this team, man... </div> Why? Their downfall is all their own doing, spending bucketloads of money they don't have, never did have and don't have the potential of ever having. They're still paying ex-players wages too: <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">While Leeds no longer pay the likes of Robbie Fowler and Mark Viduka, they still are indebted to Danny Mills, Michael Ricketts, Eirik Bakke, Paul Butler, Steve Stone, Jermaine Wright and Sean Gregan. Mills is due ?216,667 in wages while Ricketts is owed a staggering ?117,500 and under Football League rules all clubs in administration must pay up. </div> Also, here's the story about Peter Ridsdale's legendary negotiation skills: <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">When Johnson arrived at Leeds to discuss his contract, his agent wanted to hold out for ?13,000 a week. Peter Ridsdale entered the room and said "Right, I'm sorry but I can only offer you thirty thousand a week". Johnson's agent uttered some exclamation of disbelief and so Ridsdale said "Alright, thirty-eight thousand then".</div> Gary Kelly was fleecing Leeds for ?40,000 per week, 10 year contract right up until they hit administration. He then waived his wages in return for them paying all the back-wages and reinstating him to full pay when they leave administration or return to the premier league, whichever happens first. It's all their own doing. They were like kids in a sweet shop on pocket money day, only they had no pocket money.
