According to the media, Leeds United players and staff fear the club may be kicked out of the Premier League if they don't manage to pay of their debts; they currrently owe 80m pounds.

The club almost went out of business not long ago and they may not have been a Leeds United any more! 

"People didn't realise how close we came," Chief Executive Julian Rhodes said. "But the players were good and it brought them together as a team. They survived in the First Division, which was a great achievement."

And 75 members of the club's staff have also been made redundant due to the troubles.
