    I commend Cellino for being very dignified and respectfull in his thanks and comments about Steve Evans.

    See, Cellino is a nice man at heart.

    This is true, but they aren't in a controlling position to be able to make any decisions currently. i'd take Cellino leaving over GFH

    I just think if GHF were out of the picture, maybe just maybe someone might try and buy Cellino out.......<ok>

    Now I don't know if you're on a wind up LL, but I'll bite anyway. I think Cellino should have told Evans face to face that he was being let go and not send some lacky to do it for him. But that's just my opinion...<ok>

    This should answer you Shaks......:emoticon-0105-wink:

    I'd just like to add, in general,

    Does the owner of a company sack an employee, or does he get his manager/supervisor to do it?

    Have to disagree Josh, no malice as usual though.

    GFH are a stumbling block for Cellino and Leeds, everything Cellino does, or wants to do has GFH factored into the equation, I don't think anyone likes or wants GFH at Leeds but, they're shareholders. When Cellino wants to buy something, GFH have to pay their share, when Cellino wants to sell something, GFH get their share.

    Whenever Cellino buys a worthwhile asset, GFH's shares go up in value. I think GFH are the ones that would scare off any decent potential buyers. What Cellino does, or how he runs Leeds would be irrelevant to a decent potential buyer who seriously wants to buy Leeds but, would they want the whole club, or part of the club knowing GFH have the smaller part and are leeches.

    Guaranteed that serious potential buyers would do their homework on GFH.......:emoticon-0148-yes:

    Should be changed to Cellino grows half a pair

    As a consequence, Evans requested an Elland Road meeting where Hayton delivered the news on Cellino’s behalf. The Italian has not told any of the six coaches he has sacked in two years of the news himself.

    He's there to meet and hire them and give them the benefit of his inane ramblings but the moment it comes to be sacked the ****ing coward can't do it.

    I copied this off the Yorkshire evening post comments section, he wrote about 10 paragraphs blaming and accusing Cellino of everything.

    This is an example of what obsessive hatred can do to some people, I had a good laugh at these two paragraphs,

    Here's how I see what he wrote.

    1st paragraph,

    Firstly, he separates Cellino's signings from home grown talent, but then he goes on to blame our dismal performances in midfield on Cellino's 6 signings.

    Secondly, weren't our midfield generally made up of Mowatt, Cook, Murphy, Dallas, Bridcut, Adeyemi, Diagouragi, Phillips(once or twice), Byram, Caryol, Coyle (once or twice).

    Thirdly, Cellino is the owner, isn't it the coach/managers job to lead Leeds United and the team, that's what Don Revie and Wilko did, isn't it?

    2nd paragraph,

    Firstly, he continues to blame Cellino for the disaster at Brighton and the thrashing at Huddersfield and throws in Cellino's 6 signings as equal blame., basically, anything linked to Cellino except the home grown talent, then claims Cellino interferred.

    Secondly, isn't there a coach somewhere in between Cellino and the players, I don't remember reading or hearing anything that claimed Cellino interferred in those 2 games and, were there 6 of Cellinos signings playing in each of those games? there were no Cellino signings in midfield for both games.

    Thirdly, I wonder what all the other unacceptable situations are that he didn't mention.


    The person below's hatred for Cellino is so deep and obsessive that he ain't interested in the truth, he's only interested in blindly feeding his obsessive hatred with anything and everything he can jump on or make up, as long as he can blame Cellino.

    Good grief GFH, what reputation? Massimo Cellino showed himself to be totally incapable of leading Leeds United. Yes, he managed to get us nowhere in the Championship with a squad of cheap players accept for the home grown talent. Why do I say that? Because when your 6 boys were on it, they were terrible. The performances were a disgrace, Leeds were played off the park with some atrocious passing & movement in midfield.

    There are more terrible performances that showed what a disorganised team can do, but enough said. Instead Cellino managed to give us that shocking, totally unacceptable disaster at Brighton. Even worse, the humiliating thrashing at home to a very average Huddersfield thanks to the cheap players and interference from you Cellino. Yes, & there were too many other unacceptable situations, but enough said.

    Had Cellino not bought Leeds when he did, and GFH claiming not to have any money, and not paying players wages, where do you think we'd be now?

    There were no other worthwhile buyers knocking on door.

    I suspect Harvey would've been quick to swoop closely followed by his shadow Bates and dumped us into Conference or something.

    It's because Cellino bought Leeds that we supporters are still able to support Leeds United in the Championship.

    Some of those commenting saying Cellino's turned us into a laughing stock, we were a laughing stock well before he arrived - relegation from the PL, fire sale of established internationals, administration, relegation to L1, another administration, minus 15 points, barely able to assemble a squad together by which time we'd gone from the likes of Mark Viduka and Michael Bridges to Tresor Kandol and Michael Ricketts, failure to secure promotion the second season in L1, just scraping promotion the third season - all that pre Cellino

    Some people have short memories if they think we've only just become a laughing stock, in fact I'd say we're in a far better position now than we've been for years, and with no alternative serious money buyers seemingly lurking we're going to just accept that what we have at present is far from ideal but it's still an improvement on those dark years of 2004 to 2012

    Depends on the level of seniority and reason the employee is leaving.
    They don't normally leave the employee grasping round in the dark hearing their job being advertised and interviewed for.

    Evans has played a masterclass and will sue for constructive dismissal once he has gone and he will win........ The only thing will stop that is if Cellino offers him and he signs a compromise agreement.

    I don't see under what grounds Evans can sue to be honest. His treatment was poor but I'd say legal unless there are things we don't know
