Rejected petition Investigation of the takeover of Leeds United by Ken Bates

More details

I would like the government to investigate further the takeover of Leeds United in 2005, to see who was actually behind the company that took control of the club.
The whole administration process of 2007 also needs to be looked at, because Ken Bates has sworn on oath that he did not know who the owners were, but evidence seems to show that he was in fact the owner all through this process.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
