Ken Bates and his Slow Arousal
In one of the most disturbing things ever written about sport, Leeds United chairman Ken Bates has compared his rebuilding of the club to sex. In his program notes, the 79 year old Captain Birdseye lookalike wrote:
“The rebuilding of Leeds United is a bit like sex. In an age of instant gratification, Leeds United is having a long, drawn-out affair with plenty of foreplay and slow arousal.”
Which is enough to put you off Leeds, sex and fish fingers (in that order).
The rest of his article was devoted to calling protesting Leeds fans “morons”.
