Leeds United : Our Chairman Ken Bates Continued Stability.

[GoldetJr]

Leeds United was founded in 1919. Founded out of the Disbandment of the old Leeds City FC, in 1919 Yorkshire Amateurs bought the Leeds Stadium Elland Road, and offered them their place as footballers, to make the new team under the management of a former player in Dick Ray to start in the old English League 2.

In May 1920 under Arthur Fairclough Leeds were promoted to football league or the Barclays Premier League as we know it now. For the next 80 years (other than a troublesome double decade in the mid 40 to the mid 60's) Leeds cemented themselves as a leading English Powerhouse.




This story rises from the Ashes of Administration and Begins a trajectory years after our humble Chairman Ken Bates (Pictured above) took hold of the Club, steered it through Administration in 2007, and has begun an financially stable route back to the European Summit.

Breaking News from Elland Road, Ken Bates has decided to tip his hand to relative newcomer, and Media Shy Charlatan known by his assigned name back when he used to play in the Leeds Academy as "The Job". With Neil Warnock already donned in a Leeds United wind breaker was shocked to find that after being the front runner for months, he hasn't been offered the job.

Neil Warnock - "Im Surprised to hear that Mr Bates has decided to give the job to this relative newcomer. Iv heard through circles and some of my contacts that he used to play for Leeds Youth academy back in the early 2000's. His name that will be employed throughout his footballing management tenure is John John, and while obviously that is not his real name we will have to wait and see if this was the right choice. He worked hard after not making in Professionally and completed all his coaching badges and Bates believes this is the time for him to step up and take charge of his first professional job, i wish him luck and will be looking forward to taking his job in the new year when he fails."






With new manger John John, being appointed early this morning he has got to work studiously and more than earning his nickname of "The Job" and has got started on the training ground and managed to get rid of some of the players he considered deadwood, and bring in some young exciting loan singings.



With Chris Heard young and plenty of time to improve he will be first choice right back in place of Lee Peltier and he also brings versatility, being able to play in the centre of the midfield. Sammy Ameobi is also exciting for the club as he brings another youth with high potential to deputise for Varney an Mccormack on the wings.

All Staff will be retained at present to help keep the stability that Ken Bates Requires.



John John has faxed this memo to journalists.

16th July Fox Sports News - Leeds Utd.

John John.

"The club will be playing a 4-2-3-1 for the time being with an attacking philosophy, with short fluid passing. For the rest of the window i will be focusing on brining in Ademilson deputising for Becchio first season with Adryan planning to be involved for the get go. Im planning on training hard, playing attractive football and hopefully one new Centre Mid who can direct the play.

I want to thank all the media's attention, and support going forward. I shall try to bring success to this storied club.

Kind regards John John.

Sounds like your doing a good job, im a bit worried about trying to get promoted. keep me updated on how your going.
Got any tips for the first season

[GoldetJr]

Aims:

Finish in the playoff spots and push for promotion in the Npower Championship. This Is the main challenge for the club, as the windfall of money in the premier league is extremely important to out continued financial stability and achievement.

Use the Capital One Cup to Rotate Squad. This is really not a priority, the money on offer for wins is so minimal and we do not want to compromise the league performance.

Reach Round 3 of the FA Cup. The board has instructed me that they want to display their competitiveness to show they are moving forward after the sacking of Simon Grayson.

Use the Loan Market to bulk up Squad. I want to pick up some youngsters that I may have potential to buy assuming I get promoted and the loan market will help me get a leg up and nurture these players while building a positive relationship.



Pre-Season Results.



Leeds 2 – 0 Rangers.
An easy victory over a recently in administration club, we showed some fluency were very lucky not to concede as we looked fragile at the back, but more importantly the supporters commented on how attacking our football was.

Stevenage 1 – 1 Leeds.
A draw against Stevanage was poor, however we rotated our players but once again we were fragile at the back, and we may need to switch to a more compact formation to ensure John John doesn’t loose his job early to the every circling Neil Warnock.

Rotherham 2 – 3 Leeds.
A tight win, defensive frailties once again, time to change the formation to settle it down.

Leeds 2 – 0 Leverkeusen.



A chance in tactics to a 4-1-2-1-2, which immediately brought an amazing result with Paddy Kenny keeping a clean sheer with moral jumping. This is a good sign and a great result in the pre season.

Guiseley 1 - 3 Leeds.
A nice moral boosting win for the boys, with a large amount of squad rotation.

Leeds 1 - 4 Wolfsburg
I let my Assistant Mick Jones take this match, and it seems i will need to get myself a new assistant with a terrible result and not an overly good way to end our last friendly.



Now its Sports time:
With a great Pre-Season under the belts of the Leeds Fc players, and with their new formation the new formation in full swing, the players have a 2 week break before our first competitive match in the capital once cup versus Morcambe, John John insiders tell us is planning on playing second string side in order rest up key players for the first league match against Birmingham 4 days later.



After poaching Ron Bone for Middlesbrough and instilling him as my Chief scout I promptly send him to Buenos Aires to watch a friendly between Brazil and Argentina in order to get a better understanding of key targets Adryan and Ademilson. Bone immediately recommended both players and rest as they say is history. John John sings two young key players that he feels will give him the best chance of promotion.





Signings






Ademilson £5.25 Million

Adryan £0.90 Million

Cheers for the post, i hope you like the story.

I actually support Newcastle, but ever since Ken Bates took ownership of the whole club after administration in 2007 iv kinda had a soft spot for leeds. He's running the club well, and his vision of getting them back up to the premier league.

Congrats on getting up first season, thats definitely my aim, however i think i may have used to much of my finances on getting Ademilson which left my defence a little bit weak.

I forgot / haven't put up my transfers out yet, but i had to sell and loan out a few players and then i just payed the 5.25 for Ademilson over 48 months, and i just could afford it.
