    Morning Everyone,

    Firstly I would like to congratulate Glory Hunter on managing to get a rise out of MP Greg Mulholland.

    Steve Rogers ‏@sjrogers4 10h
    @GregMulholland1 Is Farnan giving u £££s? If LUFC go to admin you better luck for another job come the election.

    Greg Mulholland MP ‏@GregMulholland1 9h
    @sjrogers4 I have made no comment on what should happen, just asking for assurance on process. Your comments are deeply offensive & pathetic

    Nice one fella!!!

    It reminds me of when a certain someone upset Andros Townsend and his missus. You know who you are!!!



    Surely it must be the last throw of the dice tomorrow when we face Bolton at Elland Road. It should also see the return of Beckford.

    Would anyone still want him in the LUFC team? He has not really hit form since leaving Elland Road all those years ago, and has had his fair share of injuries.



    The Italian lawyer of Massimo Cellino said last night that he expects Cellino to be cleared of the tax evasion charges which are threatening to wreck his takeover of Leeds United.

    In an email to the YEP, Cocco wrote: “In my view I have fully proved that Mr Cellino is not guilty because the boat is owned by a US company to which Mr Cellino is an employee and is entitled, therefore, (to) stay temporarily in Italy for 18 months in accordance with EU customs legislation without paying any fee.”

    Morning Elland and all. Well done Gh but what a pathetic answer from an mp. Strikes me that down through the years, far too many people have tried to have a say in the running of our club, councils, prospective buyers etc. they all have one thing in common as far as I can see. When push came to shove and they had to put their hands in their pockets, they went missing. Talk is cheap. The one reason I wanted Cellino in all along, he was the first for a very long time to actually put some of his own cash into the club.
    And how about the headlines yesterday gfh were considering spending 600m on some club or other. They haven't 600 pence but still managed to pass FFP.
    Kind of strange, Leeds playing tomorrow and not televised.

    Morning all <ok>

    Here's hoping the Italian lawyers facts are right and not just a spin he's putting on things. It sure would be nice to get this whole thing resolved. I know it won't make much difference if Cellino comes in now or at the end of May in terms of impact to the squad, but it'd be nice to know if he's actually going to be our owner or not!

    The Football League are still waiting to hear from GFH as to why Leeds United chairman Salah Nooruddin's company Envest has recently been removed from the club's ownership statement - A question put to them over 2 weeks ago!!

    Morning all ... **** those clowns at the FL, pathetic bunch led by a clueless thief ... trust me, if this was Scum or Victimpool the deal would have been signed off long ago ... nothing that involves Leeds and the FL is ever easy, just look at how they contravened their own regulations when they took the unprecedented and extraordinary step of "inviting" all the FL clubs to vote for a fifteen points penalty against us ... WTF did our future have to do with clubs like Torquay and Barnet? And why were they openly being encouraged to vote against us by people like that "cleaner than clean" thug from Gillingham? Think its time to unleash GH on the FL as well, because they have no place meeting with a "concerned" MP and having details printed in the press!!

    Good Morning Elland from a now sunny Bardsey .I have lost 14 kg over the last 2 months by the way I could afford it .I go next Tuesday for another minor op on my asphogus .I told the nurse that I was looking forward to it and had cancelled my holidays to Dawlish to accommodate it .,she didn't get the joke!
    My take re Cellino has always been he is the one that has put his money where is mouth is no frightened to make quick decisions will be a breath of fresh air to a club run for purely as a cash cow
    Whether BM will appeal to him who knows but as a great supporter when it comes to stability he has got 2 wallies in the wingers Stewart I described to B M as a rabbit caught in headlights AND KEEBIE will have to show more desire if he is to wins fans over for me I would have gone for Burke and Jamie Murphy at Shefield U and me being me wrote to him ,not as yet had a reply also offered my Brother in laws services hes Italian so that he could converse with Cellino

    What you didn't see was the tweet where I suggested he should have paid more attention to goings on with Cyril Smith (which should concern him) than the LUFC T/O (which shouldn't). That's not quite how I put it.

    I thought I needed to delete it after he read it. Lol

    On the 22/3 I am hoping you guys have bought me a replacement rod.

    To be fair to him I might have tweeted he was as bad as Cyril smith and deleted it when he bit. :emoticon-0184-tmi:

    An FOI has already been sent to the FL. They have 20 working days to respond. I will have a response in about 14 days.


    The FOI asks about who is sitting on ffp panel.
    If Harvey what are rules about conflict of interest.
    What ffp diligence took place when GFH took over. What action is taking place now that GFH were not ffp.
    Who owned the club when Bates was chair? If not known why were fl rules not followed.

    TC, are you saying that there's now a FL process to go through when someone leaves a board? I thought it was all about who was becoming an owner, not an outgoing owner. Is this a special rule for Leeds, just because we're Leeds?

    That's how I got away with it for so long. You muppets don't even know the difference between financial fair play and the fit and proper person tests. That's FFP and FPP. So you'll probably get something back from the FA that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. :bandit:
