    Dignity & silence, followed by a court case you're probably convinced that you'll win.

    Trying to blackmail someone in public with material that could damage him is bang out of order from someone who apparently 'loves he club', as well as being illegal, I might add.

    Ironically, his attitude to Warnock & the first team (as Elland reminded us in another thread) might result in Warnock being Cellino's star witness at the court case.

    Note also that all contact was with Pearson, not Cellino.

    Yeah can see Warnock being a witness on Cellinos side after Cellino stiffed him last year. <doh>
    He can also use Donut, Hockaday, Milinic, the back room staff from 13/14, the ex marketing department, enterprise insurance, Monarch and Macron. They will be queuing up to say how ethical and decent Cellino is. (Not).

    I can guess what the text messages were about too as I commented on it at the time suggesting Cellino would be well advised to keep quiet about it...

    Cellino said in an interview that "He had pleaded with Redfearn to give Cani a try to see if he was any good"...

    Remember that as a private individual, Cellino would be quite within his rights to send a text offering suggestions, congratulations, criticism etc. As long as it wasn't a company edict, then the silly kunt doesn't have a leg to stand on. Cellino may be many things, but he is not stupid.

    Maybe so but he also stated this in an interview, he got one up on the FL they will be after him like a dog with a bone at the first chance they get.

    Not stupid... He did appoint Hockaday and Darko, he did appoint Redfearn who the majority feel was a mistake, he did sack McD before deciding it was a bad move and realising he wasn't actually in charge and had no right to sack him, pretty silly if you ask me ;) <ok>

    Since the end of last season Cellino has pretty much done everything right, I am quite shocked to be honest and I really can't put my finger on why.

    Will this be the new Cellino and the way forward or are we just a week or month away from him getting shot of them all.

    I disagree. Anyone who doesn't learn from his experience is very stupid.

    We all know what Cellino's business mode is.

    The difference this season so far is that he has kept quiet and let Pearson do all the work in front of the media and fans etc. This is a better way to do it and for now I'm ok to see how it pans out (although not with much expectation).

    People like Bean and Redfearn are currently damaging the club far more than any of Cellino's actions in the last few weeks. They should keep they're mouth shut really, there are ways to go about things and they are doing them in the wrong way at the moment.

    In the real world if people get shafted they try to get even. Cellino didn't need to do the anti Redfearn interview two months ago. He doesn't need to sack people and try to wriggle out of paying the money they are contractually owed.
    Would you want to work for someone who treats people like that?

    Whatever Cellino is to some, he isn't stupid.

    People like Bean, Redders and Thompson come up against people like Cellino and they don't like it. Cellino is a straight talker, he doesn't seem to mince his words and says it how he thinks and feels (just like posters on this and other forums) People like Bean, Redders and Thompson's first thought of reaction is revenge. They feel inside that control has been took away from them (which it hasn't) or they're fuming cos they got caught out, and they think they should get it back by an act, or acts of revenge; revenge seeking can be in various forms.

    Redders running to Bean, wouldn't that be "we attract what we are"?

    For 10 years Cellino has treated people at his football club disgracefully. Clever people learn from previous mistakes. Cellino hasn't.
    It is hardly rocket science that those he has shafted club together to support each other. Yet again he is going to be paying out a fortune in legal fees on settlements we will be forced to make. There must be an army of lawyers all chasing the cellino ambulance knowing that they are going to make a fortune fighting for the payments cellino tries to wriggle out of. Not to mention the penalties he pays for failing to follow due process.

    In the end it means decent people wont work for him, or he will have to pay them a premium for their services. Neither scenario is good for LUFC.
    It is our clubs reputation that this clown is wrecking. Please let the FL ban him and kick him out.

    i get the feeling Pearson has a big say in the running of the club. Not sure why, maybe has bought shares
    I see youve changed your stance

    You doing Irony?
    Have You misunderstood the post above?
    Or have I written it badly?
    I don't care how it happens cellino has to go. As a team we are NOT improving. As a club we are now just a joke (worse than under bates).
    Oh and the money is still disappearing.

    I think you're forgetting that Redders resigned. He was offered a contract, and refused to sign it. That contact would have been written up by Cellino's lawyers, who I'm quite sure would have been cognisant of the law. This is not a Cellino whim. This is a planned action. Redders is clearly proving that Cellino was right to call him a baby.
