Cellinos ITV interview this evening

Interesting as usual. Like the fact he feels we have the makings of a team

Nice and short, nothing new there ... he wants to be the pilot, and he WILL be the pilot, because he decides who is ... strap in for the Massimo Monster, the biggest rollercoaster out there ... thanks for the link Eire


"For the sake of Leeds United he would break himself in two"

 

He's showing some faith in some of the existing squad and young lads Billy which surely must be a good thing. Does appear to be trying to get rid of McD on the cheap. Can't blame him I suppose. He didn't employ him in the first place so is hardly anxious to honour balance of contract if he doesn't fancy having him around

 

In a sense then shouldn't he sack McDermott and cut his wage and do the job himself

 

If he sacks him, he has to pay him upwards of 2m compo I've read

 

I read somewhere a while back now that if McDermott is sacked now he is due 2m compo. But after sometime mid June its reduced considerably

So expect it sometime after mid June but looks like Cellino is attempting to make him quit,and it looks like McDermott has ****ed off on holiday probably will return mid June cant see him quitting before the end of his holiday.....i think McDermott is trying to get sacked before mid-June

cat and mouse

 

He's trying his best to get him to leave on his own terms then which won't happen. Right situation isn't it!

 

McDermott knows he will be history come mid-June and is saying why the fook should i come in and do all the work when i can go on my hols, still get paid, and hopefully you sack me and i get 2m quid cant blame him

 

He can't pay anyone anything at the moment - Leeds United 's bank accounts have been frozen

 

I wanted Cellino to get Leeds now i feel sorry for the fooker

 

The ITV interview with the Millwall owner was interesting, did anyone see it?

On this, its a personal thing but I don't like the way he disrespects BM in public. Thats just me, but I know he may think (if the June thing is true) "I will sack him in June so who cares what I say about him?" but the effect on other people at ER will be considerable, when they see someone who is a colleague (maybe someone they like, as well) being treated badly - again

 

At the end of the day, none of the mess was their fault - hope they find work soon!!

 

Absolutely, same with every non profitable business everywhere. Better to protect the employees remaining. Well said TC
