?!?Newton Heath may struggle?!?

What the... they've got the easiest draw by my reckoning. Arsenal should get through to the next round, though Leeds may struggle against Barcelona and Milan.

Sting.....Peter Ridsdale was on the Today programme this morning and was asked what he would do if they were drawn in the same group as Galatasaray and he said that if it happened he would actively encourage the Leeds supporters NOT to take up their allocation.

I bet the same goes for the Beskitas(sp) match.

He was also asked if, as he is in Monacco for the draw, was he going to the Super Cup Match tonight, he was very deliberate in his pronunciation of NO

Methinks there is no love lost between Leeds and Turkey.......I wonder why!

Mind you, they also raised the issue of the Leeds supporters arrested in Germany earlier this week and, first of all, he catagorically denied that they were Leeds supporters, then when he was pushed, he admitted that they might be Leeds supporters, but they weren't carrying Official LUFC ID cards, but then also stated that if they were Leeds supporters they would be banned from Elland Road for life.

Is it just me, or is he throwing out very mixed signals?
