of the indo today about nick leeson.hes saying he wants to return to Trading at some point and is currently doing currency dealing aswell as his utd role.it doesnt say anything about him leaving yet but i guess it might be him advertising himself for a job somewhere.was always going to be difficult to keep him long term i think.

I thought he said in the article that he would be just trading for himself - not for others

Fair play to Nick. Theres many a bigger man that would have been broken after all that happened to him. After all the slagging is done the man has done a tremedous job at United and GUFCT mentioned humble pie above...theres a lot of people tasting it now around the country and indeed the world too! Well done Nick Leeson.

thought i read somewhere that he will not be going back to working in a bank but he still takes a keen interest in the current exchange market with his own money
