    Seen a newspaper article saying Cellino sells Leeds and buys 49% of Brescia. So story out there but believe it when it happens

    We're being linked with a move for Joey Barton - I would have said yes 12 months ago but not so sure now, I think it would be a bad move as things stand today.

    It seems like every Tom, Dick and Harry were against Trump. You couldn't turn on a program that someone was mocking him or making snidey remarks. Don't like the bloke, but this is a victory for free speech and democracy.<ok>

    Totally agree. We're all about team harmony & togetherness now. He isn't. Sounds like desperate agent spin.

    I have wanted him here for last 2 seasons, especially with his experience of 3 promotions from championship to prem. Then i read about how he kicked off with the Celtic players for bottling it and telling them he was a superstar and they were lucky to learn from him .... We are a young squad of good mates with a couple of good leaders now and dont want our kids at war. Thats unless the wheels come off between now and January

    The nearest he got to a Celtic player in that match Dpc was about ten yards. Definitely not whats needed at Leeds now

    Leeds United: Cellino interest in Brescia purchase – a trigger

    BY GRAHAM SMEATON ON NOV 7, 2016CHAMPIONSHIP, FEATURED, LEEDS UNITED, NEWS, UNCATEGORIZED

    According to reports in The Sun, as relayed by The Star, it appears that controversial Leeds United may well be showing interest in Italian Serie B side Brescia.

    Cellino is in his third season of owning Leeds United, however it is the first one where he has been the sole owner rather than a majority one sharing power with minority shareholders GFH Capital – a Bahraini investment bank.

    It is safe to say that Cellino is also a divisive influence at the club, a club where there is still elements of a fan protest against his ‘toxic ownership’ burning away. Whilst some flock in that direction, others head the oppositie way as a grouping of fans shows some affinity to the Italian.

    The previous two seasons have been somewhat of a car crash when it comes to managerial apponintments and dismissals, a merry-go-round of personnel hirings and firings and a plethora of court cases including those brought by rightly disgruntled ex-employees aggrieved at the way they were treated.

    Now the Star are reporting that The Sun say Cellino is looking to buy Brescia from their current owners, under president Alexander Triboldi, and that “the business tycoon’s enthusiasm for Brescia might be a sign that he is willing to sell Leeds.” News of that magnitude would no doubt be welcomed by his critics, critics who cannot see the club developing well under his stewardship and dysfunctionality.

    However, rather than celebrating loudly, these fans may wish to err on the side of caution and stay their hand according to Italian website Bresciaoggi, who say things may not be as clear cut as the English press are attempting to make out. They state that the interest by the Sardinian entrepreneur “dates from a few months ago when he has expressed his intention to sell Leeds and go back to football in Italy.”

    With Leeds United doing well on the pitch at the moment, a surge of form taking them from 22nd place to the play-offs and 6th in just 10 games, some Leeds fans are asking why would he sell at this current point in time. Due to this reluctance to sell, if you discount the many rumoured interested buyers and agreed takeovers in motion, another Italian website CalcioBresciano.it say that “for now, however, there is nothing concrete on the table. At least until the sale of Leeds.”

    With that sale neither confirmed close by the club nor formally announced by credible means, Whites fans might just have to bear their controversial owner that little longer.
