I have as much evidence as the hack - nowt. But I don't try to bring down the club with my lack of evidence!

Its all smoke and mirrors if you ask me...
I reckon (and I am no surmising) that Cellino probably made a flippant remark which was overheard, passed on to various sources and then twisted out of proportion.
I don't trust Cellino in the slightest, I'm ready for him to do the wrong thing and give Monk the boot but those opinions don't make the Mirror story correct.
This isn't about what Cellino might do, it is about a reporter pulling a story out of his ass and Hay spreading it around on Twitter.
Cellino appointed Monk at the start of June, I would have kept Evans but looking at who we might have got and realistically looking at who would be mad enough to take the job Monk isn't the worse name, many believe he is a great name so you can't say it is a poor appointment.
We are just over a week away from September, that will be three months of Cellino buying players, listening to the manager, appointing back room staff and staying out the limelight, he has even refused to sell Taylor (so far).
Yes been there wore the t-shirt and still fence sitting about Monks ability, I am still waiting for Cellino to self destruct which he will even if it takes a week, a month or even a season but... The Mirror article was wrong, using that article as a weapon to hit Cellino with is wrong, childish and will have the opposite affect for those trying to use it
I'm not saying that the article isn't bollocks, just that he's past behaviour means some can't entirely discount it and the fault for that lies with Cellino.
Which wouldn't be the first time he's done that and doesn't mean he isn't thinking about it.
Which wouldn't be the first time he's done that and doesn't mean he isn't thinking about it. That it gets reported is down to his all too often erratic behaviour. For the record, I am hoping Monk is given at least a couple of seasons to build a squad he wants, as I did with Evans
LUTV
Monk said talk about his future beforehand was "outside nonsense." "I've a year's contract. My aim's to get this team in much better place."

Someone from this forum could go on Twatter anonymously and tweet, that,next week, Glory is gonna have a big **** off row with WJ, then ask our mods to ban him because WJ told him a few home truths, now, this may not be true, but the author hopes it is because he can say, "you heard it here first folks"
We all know Glory is gonna fly off the handle with some poor bastard, we just don't know when
Anyone who has read, and believes that crap in that LUFC hating rag wants their lump feeling

You might be right.
I politely told him he was wrong for retweeting the story but no response from him, agreement from other Leeds fans though.
Looking back through a lot of his stuff, I can't see much where he ever gets it right?
Ive just had a discussion on twitter with a Leeds fans retweeting another crock of **** from the sun about Cellino buying an Italian club. Story is more made up crap which naturally gets retweeted. Anyway, this lad explained "its the twitter way to retweet whatever appears on your timeline". Doesnt matter seemingly whether these stories have any foundation at all. Obviously Hay follows the same principle
I use my account for business as I am self employed. Twitter popularity is important when it comes to Retweeting, I don't think it matters to the average person but Phil Hay obviously knows a controversial retweet will gain him a lot of coverage so in my eyes he is putting himself before the club.
'Monk was welcomed with open arms, and seen as the saviour of the Club.' - some believed this, notably the one's who hated foreigners bringing us success and preferred route 1 football. As many if not more always considered Monk to be a limited lower league player with a big ego who contrived to remove anyone he didn't approve of from the club. Most disgracefully he wrote he was pleased Swansea didn't get promoted under Sousa & the team did well because of the players not the manager.
