i'm fully expecting not to be celebrating....but you never know. If anything it'll be a decent night out after
Morning all. The Cellino situation will sort itself out eventually. Of more concern is to get Jansson, Hernanzez, etc tied down to long term contracts asap. As for Brighton, I'll be quite content with a draw tbh

you know Glory, normally I'd think you're just in wind up mode, but the worry is that this new ban stops Cellino investing in the squad in January, and stacks of money is wasted on his defence .. makes you wonder why the FA held back so long and reveal all this so close to the window .. best job has got to be representing Massi, quids in all the time Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
I undsrstand why you would see that as a potential wind up post but cellino and his stupidity are beyond parody.
Cellino has been banned from being "a director or shadow director of Leeds/any club or company whose activities include ownership of a football club"
please log in to view this image A message from Massimo Cellino. I am surprised to read the news regarding the FA’s intentions to ban and fine me, as well as fine the Club. I am not guilty and I will take the right steps to defend myself through the tribunal. I feel that I am guilty of one thing, protecting Leeds United since I took charge of the Club. I ask the players, manager and my staff to continue to work with loyalty and professionalism and to keep fighting for the Club everyday on and off the pitch. I am sure that the public in this country and the free press will take the time to look into this case and find the truth. Massimo Cellino xxx (The kisses weren't from Cellino)
The FA has confirmed that Cellino is facing an 18-month ban from football Leeds United's appeal is already up and running. The FA broke its silence after it emerged on Wednesday that Cellino’s role in an illegal payment sanctioned during Ross McCormack’s transfer from Leeds to Fulham in 2014 will result in a long suspension and a £250,000 fine. The commission, which was chaired by Nicholas Stewart QC, had delayed the release of its verdict amid legal wrangling over whether an announcement might prejudice an appeal from Cellino. The written reasons behind the decision have not been made public, despite the FA’s announcement. Cellino, who is on the verge of selling a 50 per cent stake in United to Italian businessman Andrea Radrizzani, denied breaching FA rules by agreeing to pay an unlicensed advisor of McCormack’s £185,000 after the striker’s transfer to Fulham went through in July 2014. Leeds as a club pleaded guilty to breaking the FA’s agent regulations and will receive a separate fine of £250,000.
Would pay good money to be able to watch Cellino attend this By 30 April 2017, he is to attend and complete an FA education programme covering the duties and responsibilities of an owner and director of an English football club.
