    To people like you he could be travelling round the country ****ting on random fans' heads and he'd still be in the right.

    If we leave TA he's already said we'd be moving to University facilities, which would lead to our academy losing its category 2 status, which would seriously hinder the development of our youth players. This, given relying on youth seems to be the only thing Cellino has resembling a plan, is very worrying.

    And TC's right about the money he's putting in, it's all, for the moment at least, in the form of loans.

    Haigh is understood to have flown to Dubai - the base of GFH&#8217;s private-equity arm, GFH Capital - after being offered a new job by the Bahraini bank.

    Could this be Cellino's doings?

    Obviously he would have lots of connections.....

    I was going to point this out, so we go from next week to before the end of the year to closing it down. I might be coming off the fence sooner than I thought.

    Dont give up yet mukka he is only charging you 10% interest on his loans, and his 2 sons will be a big asset, and so far looks like all its going to cost you is TA and vast redundancies. more to come (or should i say go) yet <ok>

    Give him a chance for fook sake <doh>

    2.5m cost per year what would you rather have TA or his 2 sons working for you ?

    cost will be probably about the same give or take a bit,
