    An insignificant minority I would imagine.

    Only one way to find out.
    If it's stick or twist then it's time to twist.

    His Mrs can confirm he is indeed old, but very rarely firm.

    Indeed, some issues are more important than others, however not to the TTGM clowns - they blow everything up into a major issue. If Cellino was foolish enough to pick his nose during a match, it would be perceived by them to be a mortal insult.

    Does Cellino have a place running LUFC?

    I'd go as far to say that I'd like to see Cellino remaining as owner now that GFH are out of the way. I often wonder what his Presidency would have been like without the constraints placed by GFH. It may well have been a totally different regime. It may well be the same, or even worse, tbh. Who knows if it would be better or worse than a new owner who's never run a club before?

    As for new owners, I'm once bitten, twice shy.

    As far as I'm concerned, I'm happy with the Devil I know, until I find out who the next owners are. And even then, I can't even assess them until they become the new owners! New owners may well have access to lots of cash, but will they spend it, or spend it well? No-one knows. Absolutely no-one.

    Given Cellinos previous clubs predicament whilst he was in charge and how everytime he had a choice he reverted to type here I disagree. He can't leave soon enough for me, and the Unknown risk us worth taking.

    But by the same token they might have cash, spend it and have ambition, whereas we know Cellino hasn't and won't so your option is to stick with an owner taking us nowhere unless he undergoes a huge change of personality after 20+ years in football. Not sure that's going to happen.

    They also are more likely, with our luck to be a Bates or GFH and we know what that leads to. Still, well know soon enough

    That's true of course, but I'm not as convinced as you that Cellino is very much different.

    That's where fans differ at present London. If you believe Cellino is the devil incarnate, any new owner will be seen as an improvement and acceptable. I don't see him that way and in my opinion we've had a lot worse and can again. Sincerely hope it doesn't go that way. I want to be able to hold my hand up in three years when we're an established Pl club filling a 55k stadium and this will all be like a horrible nightmare
