So how long does due diligence take exactly, and why are the potential new owners shrouded in secrecy? When Sullivan & Gold bought West Ham, we knew what was coming in advance of the deal being done. When Fernandes took over at QPR, he twattered every step along the way. Nottingham Forest still haven't been bought but everybody knows the potential buyer is Big Al-Hasawis.
As every day ticks by without news, suspicions, probably unfounded, grow. Poor Leeds fans are trawling the net, desperate for news, any news, and just follow links that lead up blind alleys - like this one. Even the Yorkshire Evening Post is reduced to writing pap, waiting, waiting, waiting, for the big news to break.
Speculation now centres on a member of the Bahrain Royal Family. But last week it was a member of the Kuwait Royal Family. And the week before, the nation was Qatar. Master Bates must be loving this, keeping the Leeds fans he hates with a vengeance dangling on a piece of string, pulling on their choke chains, sitting smugly in his cabin watching the good ship Leeds floundering in the doldrums whilst Bosun Warnock looks desperately for any hands to press gang into working the decks.
But hang on, who is that mysterious figure slipping on board ship under cover of darkness? What do you think Stubb? Any idea Starbuck? You what Flask? What did you say Queequeg? It's who? The Fedallah? Come to slay the white whale Moby Bates?
Welcome aboard the Pequod, sailing out of Leeds instead of New Bedford!

We will have the last laugh when west spam get relegated back down to where they belong after just one season back in the top flight and are replaced by the whites and then us leeds fans will be waving bye bye west spam
Bang on mate life long leeds fan, nobody has a clue who it is no leaks etc etc ill believe it when i see it. as the song goes "where not famous anymore" and never likely to be that twat in charge.
gotta hand it to to you.....you're a first class bell end that brings a smile to my face. whether its your obsession with a big club like leeds or that wets ham just isnt worthy of any inches even on a supporters blog.....im not quite sure?
You can stick youf F**king bubbles up your arse..... sideways
I feel sorry for you ..Forever blowing leeds united
What a pillock
Hi Knob
God your boring, even i'm getting bored, the more you write the more you are going to look like a right Dumpty. Saying that you won't know what you look like as I bet your parents have taken down all the mirrors in your house.
Scared if you look you may see what you really are. One sad person.
Has nobody realised that it was July 11th when Bates bought our club from himself in 2007 if he sells up before 5 years has passed he will have to pay old creditors a lump sum, the takeover will be complete on the 12th..............
Zzzzzzzzzzzz....
Yawn
Here is some free advice: Your writing is predicable, poorly constructed and humorless. For your information, should you be considering a career in journalism, or writing you may wish to reconsider. Probably better suited to a fast-food place. Also, your OCD requires address. Either come out of the closet, embrace being a Leeds Fan, or seek professional assistance.
what the fcuk as this got to do with westham
leeds just signed Kenny from QPR...pending due diligence of course.....
Amusing anecdote to fill a gap before anything happens. Thanks
Is that Mistress Bates in the photo?
No wonder Master Bates still looks happy,despite having disappointing wares to sell on.
Nob ed still censoring replys then pmsl@U sad man..
I bet she goes on top though,is that his belly or his money belt?
Bubbles are spherical? How can you turn them sideways? Lol silly c**t!
there is plenty of west ham talk to be focused on. transfer dealings, pre-season training, direction of the club, new kits, etc. however, you seem so intent on fixating on a side and then posting about them more than west ham. i subscribed to this blog because i love west ham. in the last year it has become nothing but a blog for you to wind up spurs, qpr, leeds, and now watford supporters. i don't really need a running commentary on every team that happens to be managed by a former west ham gaffer.
i can hardly stand to see your posts come up in my feed any longer. empty barrels make the most noise and i'm afraid i have to unsubscribe. you should rename your blog 'the game as managed by former whu managers and a few former players has gone crazy.' you used to be better, you should try and get back there.
Sorry to say it but starting to think there is no takeover all bates bullshit
I am bemused at the replies to this blog. Can't you all see this is exactly what he wants. Why do you think he writes it? "f##king PR##k" comments. Grow up the lot of you! I personally find his musings mildly amusing.
Its got nothing to do with you how long it takes,surely you must grasp what DD means by now ,you spend more time trawling the LUFC pages than west hams...your a shit stirrer plain and simple,your west ham pages get next to no response so you try scoring points off other clubs,reading the west ham pages your own supporters mock your cheese dick ramblings..your life seems quite empty and void of meaning, can't imagine your past time endears you to women....a picture of a middle aged loner with few real mates...sad .

Hammer fan when tiny little clubs get taken over by publicity hungry attention seekers like Gold and sullivan, al hawasi, fernandes and of course venkys they are all small time mickey mouse and need to shout there name from rooftops. I see you didnt mention everyone knowing abramovich was coming in advance in your rant. The only berometer leeds fans can go by in the type of person/buyer ken deals with, the fact they kept it quiet this long proves they're not mickey mouse (like the man who sold a pack of rich T and 2 hobnobs and bought wet spam) the good times are coming to elland road. WE ARE FILTHY RICH SAY WE ARE FILTHY RICH
Lol. Reading these posts keeps me entertained whilst awaiting news from ER. MOT.
Lol. Keeps us all amused while we wait for news from ER.
Reading take over took 2 months.... simples
takes time but it is happening be sure of that Waiting is never easy but it will be sooooo worth it.Come you LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS

this made me laugh - It proved I still have some sense of humor left - not much though !!!
Cheers 1646 and others posting positive comments.
Steven, I think I produce as many West Ham related threads as anybody (possible exception KUMB) but I really don't get how the other threads spoil your enjoyment. Read what you want to read, ignore the rest. Do you read every article in a newspaper? Of course not! There's actually not that much to say about West Ham at the moment. When there is, I will be on it.
It must be pretty embarassing having your fellow w,ham supporters turn on you. I know why you don't publish comments containing the f and c words too. It brings back unhappy memories of when your parents called you down for your tea.
Make it up then plank! Your very good at verbal diarrhoea as your Leeds blogs prove.
West Ham is a toilet club belonging in League One like this loser nut.
Hammersfan
You seem to love our club so much..... I think you might be the secret buyer
At last a someone who
Knows the bigger picture

West ham relegated by christmas only question how early.leeds are a poor club but scratch beneath the surface are you honestly saying your existing squad is upto it.how about your new signings, again I think no.well then how about your manager,ten years ago maybe, now even you must accept unlikely.so crack on in the big league, enjoy your season
I think Hammers Fan is right. I'll believe all this guff about a takeover when I see it. More like a smokescreen for lack of investment in players / cover for flogging the family silver (snod, clayts, etc) ie same old, same old ...
have you really got nothing better to do, than write about Leeds all the time. trying to get the thousands Leeds fans reading your crap, instead of the 7 west ham fans who have just learnt how to use a computer. sort yourself out. if I were a west ham fan I'd be talking about Leeds aswell. can't blame you really, we r great.
Your all moaning at this guy for commenting on our club yet your the ones giving him views and comments on the articles, if u don't like it don't comment or view simple!
Well said!! Even your own supporters are sick of your sh*t!!! Embarrassing!
Awwwwwww did big bubble blowing west ham man touch a nerve and upset you after his post!! Ha ha you replied to him as you know what he said was the truth. Stop slagging off other clubs and expect to gain respect etc or think by any means this is a credible blog!
"WE ARE FILTHY RICH SAY WE ARE FILTHY RICH"
No, we are DIRTY RICH........
We are DIRTY Leeds.....
Unlike soapy bubble clean wet spam......
