    Never boring at Leeds. We're never more than 24 hours from some sort of breaking story / scandal / nonsense

    Afternoon all,

    Think people are missing the point with Rossco's tweet. It's a joke in the first instance, but it's also publicising his business venture in Leeds (50% owned) - https://www.facebook.com/LeedsSportsCentre. I personally like the irony. Perhaps its a Jocko thing.

    I do wonder about the London lawyers being called in. I'm absolutely certain that due diligence would have been carried out, and that everything should have been uncovered by this. Now its clear that not everthing was clear, which to me means one of 2 things, that:

    1. Either the consultants who did the due diligence were incompetent in not revealing everything.
    2. Or, the consultants were unable to uncover everything as it was fraudulently hidden by the previous administration, or their agents.

    Either way, Cellino would be justified in thinking someone should be sued - or brought to face fraud charges.

    I think the gloves might be coming off, chaps. Might get wonderfully messy!

    I know administrators where called in pretty much straight away to find where money had gone that was there before he did due dilligence.

    And before I forget, since I see White's name being mentioned again, so I'll repeat what I've said before - I've got a 12 year old Merc that's got pace - but it can Tackle cross better than White can. If he stays, get him behind the bar at half time. Best use of his pace, as far as I can see.

    Didn't Cellinos son tweet a few days ago that the slimy fat bar steward would meet his comeuppance for what he did to their family? I wonder are little chickens coming home to roost shortly?

    Jock, I'm with you on White, he doesn't get his head up ... and I feel the same about Brown, he can tackle but can't run or pass, and his sell by date was there for all to see against Forest

    Afternoon all - This solicitors thing... GFH still have a 25% interest or share in the club, could this be a move to get them out in some way?

    Does this also mean they are responsible for 25% of costs then?

    Alarm bells!

    David Haigh was a man you could do business with... Keep your personal opinion of the man out of your judgement.

    There is more chance of meeting a generous sweattie than one with a sense of humour. It was thinly veiled critisism.

    If Scotland want players in training let them provide the facilities.

    A like for like replacement for Pugh? Covers LB, LM and CM, but is younger and better, and probably on lower wages.

    Agreed but it doesn't sound as though there's anyone around to do the deal, so he'll be snapped up by another club by the time our lot get back from holiday
