Leeds await takeover to fund spending spree
Neil Warnock looked forward to the completion of the takeover of Leeds United after an exhilarating League Cup clash with Chelsea. The United managed called on the club to "sort themselves out" and make Premier League football their staple diet following a quarter-final defeat to the reigning European champions. Leeds were beaten 5-1 when Chelsea fought back from a half-time deficit to score five times in the second half through Juan Mata, Branislav Ivanovic, Victor Moses, Eden Hazard and Fernando Torres. Warnock spoke of a sense of regret in United #39;s dressing room after a soft goal conceded by goalkeeper Jamie Ashdown 60 seconds after the interval sparked Chelsea #39;s fightback, but he basked in the atmosphere created by a crowd of more than 33000 at Elland Road. Leeds are due to pass into new ownership when GFH Capital, the Dubai-based private equity firm, completes its 100 per cent buy-out of club chairman Ken Bates. Warnock and his squad will resume their fight for promotion from the Championship against Middlesbrough on Saturday Bookmark: http://www.youtube.com Subscribe - http://www.youtube.com Twitter - twitter.com Facebook Goal UK: http://www.facebook.com Goal International: http://www.facebook.comFrom:goalViews:1 0ratingsTime:01:39More inSports
