I am no fan of Bates but can't we just celebrate the new owners? I know he is taking over as President of the club but that is just a title. I am quite sure Lord Harewood had absolutely no involvement in the club finances or picking the team. Dare I say his was more of a PR role. I am also quite sure the new owners would not have agreed to Bates taking on a role with the slightest influence over the running of the club so lets just celebrate. I know it would have been good to see the back of him but like you said "What difference does it make?"
