Leeds United issued a statement last night.

AP must have known it was coming out and that FC fans would be concerned.

Not unreasonable to expect him to arrange for FC to issue a statement promptly.

He had to issue a statement around a month ago about Sheffield Wednesday - do you need your mind put at rest with pretty much the same statement, but with Sheff Wed. changed to Leeds United?

No I'm perfectly happy to be kept in the dark.

I'm only a paying customer and am not entitled to any information which may affect the club I support.

Its perfectly acceptable for the club to only communicate with its supporters when it wants them to buy season passes, tickets, merchandise etc.

Dont like it one iota. For nigh on every club the chairman is there on match days for one to support his team and for two as the figurehead of the club. Pearson will now be even further away from the club and being there for Leeds will now become his number one priority as that will be his job. As i put early James Clark is now running FC which is a joke - How any of you can be happy with this situation is beyond me. With every passing day we go further from being a top club and if it continues we will be in the championship very soon

In whet way has anything ive written been proven wrong?

This is the Leeds who play on Saturday afternoons?

Remind me when we play this week.

And when do we play Catalan, or rovers in Newcastle?

Who are Leeds Utd playing when we are in Catalan or at Newcastle

...or this Saturday.

Remind me when Leeds next match is. September I think.

Wonder what Sheffield Wednesday fans think to it all. Seems to flit between footie clubs a fair bit.

Hope whoever comes in as CEO has some rugby background .

"I remain financially committed to the club for the long term and believe wholeheartedly that the management team I have in place will drive the club forwards, both within performance and administration."
Does this mean that we will not now be hiring a new CEO or is it yet another badly worded statement from the club?
If the former I have already stated my views on the calibre of "Directors" we have on board. If AP is serious about the LUFC job he needs to let go of the reins at Hull. The job of rebuilding them is arguably bigger than sorting out our problems.

There is no reason why he can't own Hull and work for Leeds but I am concerned he is spreading himself too thinly. These are both demanding roles and he has other business interests too so I think its essential he appoints a full time experienced CEO at Hull.

With his limited knowledge of the game and now his new position at Leeds utd , I'd say a CEO is a must .

I know it's a stupid question, but what does a CEO actually do?

Depends on size of business and number of employees. Would have thought the Hull role would be quite hands on

More day to day running of the club , Should free up time for Pearson to do what ever he's doing at Leeds .

I'd love all fans to ask themselves this question.

1) Take some time to reflect on Adams tenure at this club, specifically his statements and actions since his arrival. If it was announced tomorrow that he was penny less, would you still want him as an owner?

Some feel the need to make something out of nothing,almost every owner /chairman in Sl have more than one interest on top of their jobs ect..and why all these rumours on players? does all this give some sexual gratification?

You've outfrepped yourself with that one.

If he remains committed which he say's he is and no reason to suspect otherwise unless he comes out and says. then surely AP have an extra income coming in (which I imagine would be reasonably healthy) takes some of the financial pressure of him in regards to his other business interests, including Hull FC?

In fact, let's suppose he get's paid £150K per year at Leeds, then brings in someone at FC as CEO with RL background for £100K then it's win-win for the club and him?

I accept those figures are totally arbitrary but you get my point. Let's just wait till e hear more.

the answer to that hokey is yes i do believe some get there socks out on mischief and player goings

I would be surprised if being CEO at Hull took up much of his time at all, a few phone calls/meetings etc. Hull FC as a business isn't particularly complicated, and he has a team of directors doing the day to day stuff anyway.

I wouldn't want anyone who was "penny less" to have ownership of our club
