Cellino gone

Official on Leeds website.

100% Takeover complete

The "honest and hardworking" Cellino departs

posted on 24/5/17

So Cellino is out! Viduka is back!

I'm worried. How can we trust a man who describes Cellino as honest?

You can't judge rad on what's happened up to now, every judgement is tempered by its impact on the buyout. If I was him I'd have kept my powder dry until now. Now it's his club, let's judge him on what happens going forward.

Out of all our owners, Cellino is the worst we've had in our history and i seriously think it's down to Radz how we had a stable season without having to be made a mockery of too.

What we need now is him to find investors and get the club out of the championship, I'm very cynical now when it comes to our owners so let's wait and see first before bumming him.

Nothing about me not being cheerful. It is about me being realistic. Nothing to celebrate until he is proved his here to do good by the club.

Completely agree, want it to work out, but need to see some deeds not just words.

Signing Monk, or a quality replacement quickly is a good start.

If signing Monk then attempting to sign Bartley is a good next step.

Outlining timescale for promotion, ER buyback would be a good thing to hear over the summer.

Why are you bringing up Perth?

The most amazing and at the same time weird thing about this takeover is the way people are around here!..

Fact is, most here were arguing about the turmoil and the state the club was in, the way it was getting run, people in/out faster than a Micky Mouse trap door, money shooting in every direction but the team!..

AR came in and it all slowed down, money got tied to the next post so it couldn't shoot off, a manager that was according to some facing the sack was kept in work, and the coaching staff were allowed to work the way they are supposed to!..

Did we not overachieve this year?.....some said we did!..

Weird the way some are, we have to look at what now comes and ride the tide, its as simple as AR came in and things got better, he is the one that's been sorting the backroom out something nobody's done since before we went into meltdown, he's now got control off this club and anything now done will be on his say so, so lets got on with life and let him make it better!..

He is now the boss and he'll be the one that fails or wins, but ffs give him a feckin chance!.

As for Elland Road, he'd be a fool to set a time because the last "3" did that and we're still waiting, but I think Elland Road is high on his agenda!..

And backing for the club, nobody knows who has his behind him, but the way things are moving it says he's got someone there, maybe they don't want to be named, or maybe we'll now find out, but he knows as well as anyone that this club run right will bring a return!..

"I'm worried. How can we trust a man who describes Cellino as honest?"

That's just the norm around business people, they don't go about trying to get one over on each other, unless they're called Bates or Cellino!..

I'm sick of words.

Last season we finished 7th, now I want actions to improve on that

Germany is getting what almost everyone has said wrong. Nobody has said that him coming in is a disappointment. Some of us just want to see him actually do something before we judge whether or not he is an improvement, and certainly whether or not it is worth celebrating.

No Lubo, its not me getting things wrong, its me seeing things have got better since he's been here, the takeover tied his hands and for him to back the club the way some say would have meant him doing it alone, that would have been foolish!..

Getting things moving in the backroom, he's done more than Bates, Gfh or Cellino in that department!..

As for celebrating, maybe Cellino should have stayed and we could have dreamed on, I'm saying that since he's come in things have got better and there are no reasons why it won't get even better!..
