Red Bull Leeds?

Of all the sponsors.. Here's hoping we don't go this way. Although given the grapevine is claming this will be the biggest and most expensive shirt deal in English football history i'm sure there would be some of our fanbase that would justify this in the name of more money.

Biggest in the EFL.

When the Leeds fan alleged that his dad was 'slashed' outside Carrow Road the other week, wasn't it actually a can of Red Bull that was thrown? If so, we were just helping them receive their new investment.

Almost as though they need something to make up for a financial hole... Surely the (minority) owners wouldn't be paying an artificially inflated price to get around ffp?

I think it was worse how the local EDP journos reported it as a slashing in spite of the police reports to the contrary. The total lack of research or choice to write click bait to be somehow more relevant really shows what’s happened to the quality of some written journalism. I expect it’s a by product of people doing degrees in journalism as opposed to English coming to fruition

I agree but it wasn’t helped by large numbers of posters on here jumping straight on to the bandwagon without evidence.

Just consider how many thousand clicks are needed to pay one staff members rent/mortgage for the month.  That's the underlying problem.

Can @SouthwellC offer any clarity on this. Was a retraction made, an apology? Grossly negligent journalism that could have resulted in serious consequences at Elland Road..
