Clocks will start ticking for Leeds United at 6.30pm on Sunday evening. Once it is finally clear which division they will be in, the dominoes on their future will have to start toppling, and quickly.
Understandably, no meaningful decisions can be made until the hundreds-of-millions-of-pounds impact of relegation or survival is resolved. Preparation can, and must, be done in advance of Sunday’s full-time whistle because there will not be much time at all for ducks to be put in a row.
By now, supporters should be familiar with the various Elland Road issues at play. Ownership needs to be resolved in short order, allowing virtually every other decision of the close season to fall into place.
