Yeah, well I guess even Leeds fans don't deserve Ridsdale AND Bates!
Still, I think fans are part of the problem (not Leeds in particular). They tend to have such high expectations that they welcome any shyster with open arms who promises them money, forgetting that these are all businessmen who didn't get rich by giving stuff away and will one day take all that money back, with interest.
When the Russian gangster gets bored at Chelsea, I suspect that will be the end of the club. He's spent so much there that I doubt they'll survive when he goes (and he will - he's not Jack Walker). Similarly, City welcoming Shinawatra with open arms, despite his history and current legal problems....
