    I have as much evidence as the hack - nowt. But I don't try to bring down the club with my lack of evidence!

    Its all smoke and mirrors if you ask me...

    I reckon (and I am no surmising) that Cellino probably made a flippant remark which was overheard, passed on to various sources and then twisted out of proportion.

    I'm not saying that the article isn't bollocks, just that he's past behaviour means some can't entirely discount it and the fault for that lies with Cellino.

    Which wouldn't be the first time he's done that and doesn't mean he isn't thinking about it.

    Monk said talk about his future beforehand was "outside nonsense." "I've a year's contract. My aim's to get this team in much better place."

    Someone from this forum could go on Twatter anonymously and tweet, that,next week, Glory is gonna have a big **** off row with WJ, then ask our mods to ban him because WJ told him a few home truths, now, this may not be true, but the author hopes it is because he can say, "you heard it here first folks"
    We all know Glory is gonna fly off the handle with some poor bastard, we just don't know when<ok>
    Anyone who has read, and believes that crap in that LUFC hating rag wants their lump feeling

    I politely told him he was wrong for retweeting the story but no response from him, agreement from other Leeds fans though.

    Looking back through a lot of his stuff, I can't see much where he ever gets it right?

    Ive just had a discussion on twitter with a Leeds fans retweeting another crock of **** from the sun about Cellino buying an Italian club. Story is more made up crap which naturally gets retweeted. Anyway, this lad explained "its the twitter way to retweet whatever appears on your timeline". Doesnt matter seemingly whether these stories have any foundation at all. Obviously Hay follows the same principle

    I use my account for business as I am self employed. Twitter popularity is important when it comes to Retweeting, I don't think it matters to the average person but Phil Hay obviously knows a controversial retweet will gain him a lot of coverage so in my eyes he is putting himself before the club.

    'Monk was welcomed with open arms, and seen as the saviour of the Club.' - some believed this, notably the one's who hated foreigners bringing us success and preferred route 1 football. As many if not more always considered Monk to be a limited lower league player with a big ego who contrived to remove anyone he didn't approve of from the club. Most disgracefully he wrote he was pleased Swansea didn't get promoted under Sousa & the team did well because of the players not the manager.
