MORRIS: I'M INNOCENT

FORMER Leeds director Simon Morris - who is still a major shareholder - has hit back at the allegations made by Chris Middleton and the three other businessmen.

He said: "None of these things ever happened. I have no knowledge of the serious allegations. I deny plotting the Gary Kelly allegations. It doesn't make economic sense. If he's in hospital for four weeks it's going to cost you a hundred grand. He's on 24-grand a week. It's nonsense. I am sorry I ever got involved with Paul Garland or Middleton. If you lay down with dogs you get fleas. All these guys piss in the same pot and have the same goal of causing disruption to Leeds United."

The claims all pre-date the pounds 10million takeover of Leeds United last month by former Chelsea chairman Ken Bates.
