I twittered early last year GfH that they had no clue, no money to buy Leeds. I said wtf you are doing here. Got no reply
Yes you are definitely right there and it would be stupid to think differently imo. But, which category does Cellino fall under? He doesn't have any prior association with Leeds and he clearly won't bankroll the club. I mean he didn't with Cagliari so why would he with us? He regularly sold players at that club and spent less on incoming players, in fact the only reason he is getting rid of the club as far as I can see is because the fans have stopped showing up (for whatever reason you can debate, but the fact is fans aren't showing up) and therefore it is becoming much more expensive to run the club. If it wasn't then would he really be selling and buying us? He is a known liar and these last few days I feel like he is just saying what he knows will make fans happy. People are looking for reasons why it went wrong for him at Cagliari to cover up the mistakes he made because they want to see him as a saviour. I would completely love it if he was but I am certainly not sold at all, I can only see him being bad for this club, happy to admit it if I'm wrong.
I have to admit GFH pulled the wool over my eyes with their spin. My best mate had them sussed from day one & I always accused him of an over-cynical view of the board. I am completely appalled by some of the content of the Daily Mail article (IF true), they should be totally ashamed & I have to retract my original opinion of Cellino (until proven otherwise) & give him my support. GFH are an investment Bank FFS, yet instead of borrowing from themselves they loan £1m form that cnut Bates of all people. That factor alone deems them lower than a snakes belly. Sooner they do one back to Bahrain the better as far as I am concerned. M.O.T.
They pulled the wool over many peoples ayes. The true test of any owner for me is if they put their hands in their pockets and spend their own money. Bates or gfh failed to do so. If Cellino does rather than talk about it like the others, hell do for me
Morning Josh -2 points... Any team surviving in the Italian top flight with 10k to 5k fans playing their home fixtures at away grounds (so paying rent) must be being bank rolled. Second yes Cellino has made a profit on want away players but surely that means he is buying young players with potential not freebies? Maybe he does have an eye for talent, I said one step at a time. If Cellino buys TA and ER and clears our debt that is several steps forward for me.
