    Nope,
    I don't think anyone else will take us on.
    It's cellino or bust.
    It might even be Cellino AND bust.

    <doh> what,you can't be serious Glory,probably the most over rated keeper I've ever seen.At best he was average at worst rubbish.Let goals in for fun and don't remember any great saves.

    opinion hasnt changed since day 1.
    Mighty is nearer to the reality on MC than chesh and Elland.
    Cellino isn't the messiah, he's just a (fill in the rest).............................

    Oh for Silvestri to be good enough to be considered average!

    I dont remember Butland once tackling his own defence and falling over (never mind repeatedly), I do remember his good distribution though.

    He came in just as the Donut situation blew up and never had a chance to prove how good he could be because the walls were falling in all around him and the team. He is a quality keeper and will go on to prove it at the highest level, while Silvestri will go to be reserve keeper at a mid table serie a team.

    Not necessarily, Glory. The FPP test is for Directors too, not just owners. So they've already passed it - unless hard evidence can be produced to make an urgent review essential.

    They would have to pass it again if they end up owning 30% of the club.

    Like whats happening in Dubai as we speak won't that be relevant to FPP test Whitejock
    I think that Silvestri will prove Glory wrong he will be the best we have ever had even Seaman and the old Liverpool Clemence were not blameless and reputed to be the best goalkeeper ever always had a bad game at ER Gordon Banks
    The best I have seen are peter Schmichael and Bert Trautmann

    I cannot believe that Cellino would walk away from a fight. It's only GFH he's up against, after all.

    One thing to bear in mind re. Cellino's investment. As I understand it, there was the original purchase price, owed to GFH in installments. The rest (and bulk) of the investment has been in the form of loans, which I would expect to be preference loans. Do you really think that Cellino would invest money for GFH picks up 25p of every £1 invested for free? No chance!

    So if Cellino does decide to drop us, he'll most certainly pay off the loans first, and GFH will lose everything when we go into administration.

    I still don't think he'll drop us, btw. Considering what he was up against in Italy, this is a doddle.

    I think Cellino will sell his stake for a quid and already has a buyer lined up <whistle>
