    Not just the TTGM crowd!

    Anyone who wants the best for LUFC or believes in people's respect and dignity should want the same thing.

    Agree. But that doesn't make him any good and no reason to sing his praises.
    For the record, I don't 'hate him', I'm highly sceptical of him and have no faith his approach will get us promoted but I hope with all my might he proves me wrong <ok>.

    Not many singing his praises but some of us have the sense to see he's the only option at present warts and all. Projecting images on the stands or hiring broken down open top buses will not encourage any prospective billionaire to get envolved in the club. Might make a handful of protesters feel better of course

    Not sure I agree that it's the protesters rather than having to deal with Cellino is the real reason prospective buyers are being put off.

    Well these famous investors wouldn't deal with gfh a couple of years back and before that they wouldn't deal with bates. I wonder who are they likely to deal with?

    I would imagine it will be the administrator when Cellino has bankrupted us and sold everyone worth a fee.
    14 more months of cellinos business acumen should do it.

    That would be the gloomiest scenario and I couldn't think of anyone more likely to come up with that than you

    The only logical reason for not sorting Evans out and paying him off with his 7 weeks money due to the end of his contract and get the new guy in is because Cellino can't afford to pay both.

    Conclusion. Cook is going and the money won't be reinvested.... The others will go in the next two windows to be replaced with freebies.... When there is nothing left Cellino will wind us up... The refunds on season tickets will be the final straw.

    Eire you are of course right there are no other options you are stuck with him <ok>
    and again you are right all the protests in the world wont remove him "he owns the club"
    but you speak from afar and only get to the odd game but many fans spend their hard earned cash supporting the club and only want what they think is best.
    my point is!!
    If you had spent hundreds or thousands each year in the past and you now felt you were being let down would you.

    A) Part with your money again and say nothing.
    B) Part with your money because you love the club but want your voice heard.
    C) Just not bother going anymore.
    D) Do what Glory is doing and go and watch Bradford Sunday.(ok put that in as a wum but thats what others may choose) support another club..

    im sure some fans are using option A some B some C and some D
    Im sure a lot of fans are happy but what should those who are not actually do ?

    Protesting against Cellino by a few hundred is about as practical as protesting against the weather. It's a modern idea driven mainly on social media to protest against just about anything. It's easy cos most don't have to stand up from behind their keyboards. hopefully whoever the next owner is, they will have the resources to satisfy both yourself and glory

    Perhaps but it was certainly better than anything you have posted.

    That would be the opinion of a minority though

    That's how most things start out.....
    Would suggest I was closer to calling our current situation than you over the last two years.

    I am at a function that I understand Cellino is attending on Thursday. I won't have my keyboard, but he will be made aware of just what I think of his business and man management practices.
