I am closing in on completion of my second book, the manuscript should be ready in a couple of weeks. Do you remember many moons ago i asked if it was possible to include photographs in our books? Has anything changed at all in respect of this? As with all sports books, I would love to be able to include a few glossy photo pages in the middle of the new book - are you aware of any way that can be achieved within the confines of the CN /LS system?

Warnock reckons he has told those he doesnt want next season so it must be very difficult for them to give everything in that situation. I have recently done a bit of research into the emotions of watching sport and we should remember that when we do ultimately get promoted, it will be all the more sweet because of all of the negative emotions we suffered along the way! If you are ever in the Pavilion at Leeds, be sure to seek me out. Best wishes, DLW (more)

I cannot believe the players have given up, it's unfair on the 20,000 fans who turn up through thick and thin. Being a supporter of our once great club is not really good for your health or your wealth. But as ever On On On Keith (more)

Glad you are enjoying LUIPOTP - it started out as a bit of fun to keep me occupied as I was retiring but it has somewhat taken me by surprise as to how relatively successful it has been. The original intention was to document the return to the Premiership (obviously) but then when we missed out last year I was hooked on writing. So, yes, episode 2 is on the go and I hope to publish on here around the end of May. For the 2011/2012 season my son Mark and I had season tickets as I can now make it to all the games without upsetting my employers! I am on track to have done all 50 competitive games - 3 more if by some miracle we reached the play-offs. The provisional title of the new book is "Leeds United - Light at the end of the Tunnel" and I am already very proud of it as it covers what has been a tumultuous season with the Gary Speed death, Howson transfer, grayson sacking, Rachubka debacle, Warnock appointment, Bates out campaign, etc etc. Very best wishes David L Watkins (more)

I would like to know if your planning another edition about the 2011/12 season, it's certainly one that will have me scratching my head during the summer. Hope you can reply to my question Keith Ingham (more)

Can you have a look at my sales listings and in particular look at the entries labelled 4575 and 4266. Why is it when all other details are the same, that on 4575 my royalty is £0.82 but on 4266 it is £2.82? (more)
