Somehow i don't think Bates has ever thought he needs PR advice - he has a style that can't be taught. Matt

Bates decision to publicise Levi's personal address is a poor decision and of course Wise's statements about the "Mole" and Nicholls have effectively made it impossible for either Derry or Nicholls to play again for LUFC along with severly reducing any reasonable transfer fee we could have expected for them. These various bleatings are all part of a pathetic ploy to attract sympathy for these two and distance them from our current plight which by any standards is woeful. I think it says enough about Wise's people management skills that the 2 players that he identified as key to our saviour ie Nichollls (Club Captain) & Derry (Deputy Club Captain) are now persona non grata as far as Wise is concerned. Pretty inspiring management that. I heard him give a reporter from Real Radio some grief because he questioned whether the team were pulling together after getting beat by a team with 10 players that have only won just one other game in 2007. Wise thought he was been "negative". I can't believe how the team I love has ended up. The performance on Saturday was a shambles and I have never felt so low going to watch the team. If you ask me the only hope we had was to sack Wise when Dowie became available. Of course that was never going to happen. I didnt join in but I certainly dont blame Leeds fans for having a go at Wise & Bates on Saturday. We were Leeds.
