    Anyone seen it, this was on Facebook:

    From the very early days of Massimo Cellino’s majority share ownership of Leeds United, it was clear the support was in for a rollercoaster ride. Unfortunately it’s been a downhill one.
    The Trust has consistently said that the club should put the stability and the needs of the support at the top of its agenda. Alas, for reasons only Massimo Cellino can explain, this is not happening. What is happening is that Mr Cellino appears to be in media a lot for his activities – the vast majority of which seem to signal yet another Leeds United crisis.
    Constant head-coach changes (with the subsequent need to make expensive pay-offs), is doing nothing for the evolution of a footballing squad more than capable of challenging in this division.
    All this upheaval is damaging to the young players we nurture and to the reputation of the club. If Massimo Cellino is not prepared to acknowledge England is not Italy and that coaches cannot be sacked at the rate of 4 a season, it seems to point to who the major source of instability is.
    Equally, the constant nature of off-piste issues (Italian court-cases, in and out managing directors, the non purchase of Elland Road) is helping to encase the clubs reputation of being constantly in crisis.
    As such, it is easy to see why the events of last week (particularly the ticket allocation debacle) and today (the sacking of Uwe Rosler and the employment of Steve Evans) have instilled a sense of despair in the loyal fan base.
    The Trust calls on Massimo Cellino to acknowledge the need for real stability, manifest in stable football management and consideration of the needs of the long suffering support.
    We call on Massimo Cellino to employ a managing director with proven English Football experience to lead the club forward, and for Mr Cellino to adopt the accepted approach of successful football club owners in England, to be seldom seen and never heard.

    Still too gutless to call for him to sell up then...... Jesus anyone would think Cooper was still in charge.

    Evans versus Cooper @ sumo perhaps...
    Yes i know about the diet. But it'll never laast!

    At least they have admitted it is a downhill ride and that there is a sense of despair appointing Evans.

    If you were a business man why would you buy when you can wait and pick it up for a song when he gets kicked out.

    True I guess...

    Lots of disgruntled fans, lots of high tension (myself included) guess we have to ride it out and see how it all unfolds.

    Yes, we're stuck with what we have but frankly the situation is becoming a farce and the club an embarrassment.
    That said as I always do, I hope this new coach proves to be a success .

    Am I right in thinking that this call for stability means that LUST wanted Rosler to stay?
