YULETIDE PAY WORRY AT LEEDS

A numBer of Leeds players were briefly perturbed before Christmas when they did not receive their wages on the same day as their pay slips, which arrived on December 23. Despite the confusion in some quarters, however, Leeds did pay their players on time on new Year’s eve — they just sent out the pay slips early as club offices were closed between Christmas and new Year. no players complained but the discrepancy raised eyebrows among some of their agents.
