What Are Your Expectations?

I think the only reason he will sell is when he realises he has to continue funding the club - especially as gates and other income drops.

Just maybe a decent offer will get him out. He's 'building' a get out clause by stating that the fans have been turned against him by Redders.

If he goes I expect him to blame:

The FL for their victimisation.

Redders for turning the fans against him.

The fans for abusing him and his family.

Selerno for buying carp players.

Darko.

Hock.

Lucy Ward.

The tea lady.

Leeds for being an absolute shathole!

... and anyone/thing else he can think of.

The family abuse one is another Cellino 'poor me' ploy.

Edoardo used to attack fans on twitter, especially when he said he hated Juventus players and fans pointed out John Charles had played for Juventus


His daughter used to post pictures of herself in provocative poses, say how she missed everywhere but Leeds and was quite a potty mouth on social media to Leeds fans. She never wanted to be in Leeds in the first place.

I expect us to do better than expected.

New coach.

Useful additions.

Further progress off the field.

Like some I expect to see another regime change although that might not sit so well with some once the new owners take charge.

I've no interest in Cellino's family whatsoever. I can point to a number of others who spend their time slating anyone and everyone on here, on Twatter and elsewhere.

I could be maudlin and predict negativity but I believe this club will progress next term.

Jonty said,

"The family abuse one is another Cellino 'poor me' ploy."

So Jonty, it sounds like you are condoning abuse against Cellinos family, are you?

There is no excuse, for abuse, anywhere.

What Jonty is saying is that the alleged abuse is a ploy.

Has anyone got any proof there was abuse?

I've seen a few spats on twitter but the Cellinos gave as good as they got and quite often incited it with their stupid tweets.

Exactly Stoopo, no one condones any abuse but what was this exactly?

As far as I'm concerned it's just another load of Cellino hot air to make people think he's being treated unfairly again.

Stoopo, remember when Edoardo and Ercole, board members at Cagliari, posed wearing Leeds shirts with their names on, whilst still board members at Cagliari.

They got a load of abuse (comments) from Cagliari fans about that disrespect, they bring a lot of things upon themselves.

I think it could go either way. 2 or 3 quality signings to compliment the youth breakthrough could see us pushing for playoffs or infighting and carp signings could see us in a dogfight again.

Whatever happens I hope there's not too much pressure on the younger lads to deliver. They've had a good season in terms of development and performances but still too young in my opinion to carry the team.

I can't stand Joey Barton's public persona but I'd love to have him in the middle of the park for us next season.

agree with rawdon white, I hope they don't sell any of our youth because I like them as a solid base. add a few decent signings in key positions, get rid of redders because he can't possible do the job now and hope for cellino to sell. with the experience the young players have got this year I can see more of a challenge for the playoffs. of course it could all go t its up.

I hope there is a full blown takeover that is as quick and painless as possible, and whoever comes in they're serious player's that have club and City in mind!..

On that happening, I hope they bring in the manager,(yep, manager!)that so many are crying for and that at the same time they,(wait for it!)get Redder's to take up his broken contract job, ie, reverting back to the academy and bringing with him his sacked nr2!..

I think those two working with the Leeds United academy that has and still can produce an end product would work wonders with the youngsters waiting to be found!.

Its been proved the youngsters are the way forward, but hey, the guy that proved it is being hung by so many they're to blind to see it!..

Oh well, life goes on so they say!.
