I know you don't want to hear it, but this a mostly Cellino's fault. He brought in 15 players I think, most of which were average journey men from around Europe. Our best players were already here before Cellino (Warnock, Mowatt etc). He is also a crook and has consequently brought all kinds of trouble onto the club (rest assured there is more in the pipe line!). His 'manager eater' tag means that no quality coaches will entertain taking the managers job and his knee-jerk reactions bring mockery to our club. GFH are equally as culpable by the way (but for different reasons). He should find us a buyer (with deep pockets) who will run the club in a steady, progressive and sensible manner and who will build a team ethos of expansive, attractive and technical football (like Southampton & Swansea). I love Cellinos passion for the club & football, but he is not good for LUFC in the long run I'm afraid

Very intelligent post, in fairness to Mr Cellino he is passionate about the Club and does on the face of it appear to have financially stabilised the Club, there however are lot of bad things as well. Everyone in life deserves a second chance but the latest conviction is far from the Chairman's first.

The irrational sackings and appointments, Hockaday, Milanic and the unfortunate departure of true Leeds people such as Richard Naylor are all decisions made by the Chairman himself. I am personally very pleased that Neil Redfearn is promoting youth and given my only involvement with professional football has been building new stands, I'm not really sure I'm actually that well qualified to criticise excessively - he will have a much better idea from training than most of us on who is actually playing well.

Whatever many fans would appear to believe with regards to neat football, it will all come right soon etc the evidence would appear to be that this team is not the equal of last season's team which even flirted with the play-off places, albeit briefly, something on current form looks very unlikely.

The offer we received for McCormack was I think too good for almost any Championship Club, especially one in financial trouble to turn down but he is a big loss in my view and has not been fully replaced. Michael Tonge may well not be the player he once was but unlike some, he uses his experience and I always believe he is giving 100%.

A sale into a more stable ownership would I believe be in the Club's long term best interests.
