    Good Morning Everyone,

    Massimo Cellino’s takeover of Leeds United will almost certainly collapse if he is found guilty of tax evasion in Italy later this month, or so says the Telegaph.

    Cellino faces charges of not paying tax on a £400,000 yacht he bought in the United States.

    If found guilty he could face a 1.1m euro fine, but more importantly could fail the fit and proper process set out by the football league.

    Lets not forget that it is a newspapers job to paint a rather grim picture of things.

    If a newspaper were only to sell good news stories, noboby would buy it!!!!

    I'm off to a networking meeting, so speak in a bit!!!

    Morning all. Can honestly say, I've seldom felt as disillusioned with Leeds and those who control it. If it was possible to give up on a football team, today would be my day. It doesn't work that way of course. Seldom if ever anything positive to talk about with this ****ing disaster of a club

    "networking meeting"? Means he's going down the pub to talk about the highlights of last night's game. Should be back in 5 minutes.

    Morning by the way one and all.

    Good morning from a dull Bardsey .
    Lets hope Cellino and his legal boys get things sorted as I felt the boat was getting back on an even keel under him we were going forward with first rate loan signings giving us something to cheer about after BATES AND CO

    Certainly hope so as Im not convinced there is a plan B for gfh to implement. Dread to think how much debt has been racked up over past twelve months

    morning all

    Doesn't surprise me Celino is getting done for tax evasion. It's just another black mark to his name.

    Morning all - We should be used to all this by now, one day maybe we will have a take over bid that will sail through and be headed by an owner that has a clue and has some dosh.

    Fair enough MTMB. Face to face, I'd tell you why we're there. But not a subject for this site. Either way, again genuinely sorry for your loss.

    Afternoon all <ok>

    Incredibly fed up of this drawn out takeover saga yet again, life isn't that kind to us Leeds fans! To get things back on a football talk the match thread is under construction and will be up shortly <cheers>
