How much more money is cellino's actions going to cost us? £300 k for Gibbs. Lucy ward damages money.
Enterprise taking us to court, macron taking us to court.
Shall I go on?
The man is a liability full stop. This money should be going towards tying Taylor and cook to new contracts.
Not down the drain. Someone please come forward and buy the club off this lunatic before he buries us for good.

It's not really "cost us " it's more cost himself as it's his club.

I couldn't agree more. I wonder how he justifies to himself, family and colleagues his behaviour/ decision making and the consequent huge financial costs and reputational damage to the club. A major embarrassment as a minimum if not an utter disgrace.

His decision making has made him a billionaire . If he takes us back to the premiership and keeps us there I don't care if he upsets a few people on the way there.

{Ed001's Note - he is not a billionaire.}

That depends on where you look ed and being worth somewhere in the region off 750 to 800 million he's not far off.

{Ed001's Note - his family is worth that, not him.}

Wex

It is costing us not Cellino. Club lawyers and club fees. This will come out of club funds not Cellino's possible pocket. This will go on to our accounts. Some people saying he's sorted the debts of the club, his actions are adding to them. More to come. Would rather have essential staff at the club than pay off court cases lost because of the liability of an owner.

Ah he hasn't a bob so.

{Ed001's Note - you really do not get it anyway, he has made himself and his family rich but not his clubs. Plenty of bankers made themselves rich but only a moron would think that makes them a good choice to run a football club. Cellino will do what is best for him and heap any debts on the club rather than on himself.}

But that's a negative outlook I am sure he doesn't want to bust our club I'm sure he wants to make a success of our club even if its just to sell for profit.

And these things happen in most business takeovers any new owner of a business wants his own people working there and in lots of business takeovers there are unfair dismissal cases which are lost by new owners.

not ideal but better than bates and gfh again roll up roll up a better buyer if out there we would be very grateful until then I guess we will have to make do love and support our club.

Cellino "SAVED OUR CLUB" when we were half way down the drain and know one else gave a SH$T about us. I agree with most of the comments and YES, he is a MADMAN but I am still grateful for all he has done for us. GOOD or BAD.

It's mainly his money in the club. True could be better spent but so could money smokers spend on cigs their entire life. Can't see anybody standing up and asking to buy the club. what happens on the pitch is what counts!
It's his club. It's his money. Up to him how he spends it.

Cellino is estimated to be worth 750 mill, that's money that's been audited. Its family money in as much that family members are ceos etc, ie eleonara, but at the end of the day its his money. No one knows for sure how much people like him abramovich, tan etc are worth exactly. let's say he's mot skint. And yes it costs the club, goes on yheir accounts but whose money is keeping us afloat, does anyone honestly believr cellino will risk going bust. Hear the same thing over and over. He can sack who he wants. Maybe300 grand was cheaper than keeping him. Who knows why he does the things he do. He will build the club the way he wants it, as long as we progress he can hire and fire who he wants. Mother theresa could own us and we would still get bad press.

Quite right Ed 001. This is what most sensible people can see. Cellino messes up and the club end up paying. Over 300,000 plus lawyers fees,with Lucy Ward still to be paid and other court cases pending. How much of next season's transfer kitty will be gone. Just sick of the "It's his club,he owns us". He loans the club money, he doesn't give us it. Just like all other owners. After every garbage decision he makes, some on here keep on repeating the same old story that he doesn't want to bankrupt the club, well, his actions are costing us money. How many season tickets will have to pay for these ridiculous actions of Cellino. "He's not bates or GFH", does that mean we have to go along uncritical of everything he does? Having Cellino as owner makes another buyer less likely. Who wants to come in and have to deal with court cases. Every loss means less money to spend on players.

Lets see what happens in the summer. If he spends nothing and we end up with l. loan players then doom awaits and we have no future. On the other hand if we buy 3 or 4 good players keep the good young ones, then prophets of doom please take a seat at the back. By the way I am sure a few on here work for companies that chop down rain forests and use child labour to pick their fruit and make their clothes. Do you take placards to work.

Good players either cost money or have to be scouted. We have no scouting system, thanks to cuts made by Cellino. Good players need paying £300,000 would have gone a long way to paying the wages of a good player. I hope we win the league next year. We need to be back in the premiership,it's the only place to be. Critism of the owner and the way he treats employees, his anarchistic way of running the club and negative publicity he brings with him, does not makes those of us who take such a stance any less of a Leeds fan than those of you who defend the indefensible.

Our club is a brand and a fan base that's all no assets other than players and a name that was running at a loss before Cellino. The only reason Leeds exists is because Cellino put his money into Leeds. So it's not our money. And again I ask WHO ELSE IS GOING TO BUY AND RUN LEEDS.


17.) 29 Apr 2016
29 Apr 2016 15:28:09
It's still running at a loss and we've thrown £300,000 plus down the toilet. As for the great saviour, bates claimed the same. There was no buyer back then. Cellino may want the best for the club but hasn't got the skills for the job. I ask again who would buy a club which is in court every month with unwinnable cases? There were interested parties but who wants to mop up after Cellino's bungled job. Just because someone turns up and becomes owner that must mean we should blindly support every madcap bungaling attempt to run the show without fitting people on board.

It's cellino who has been moping up someone else's bungled mess.

i find all this stuff a little dull. I care about leeds on the pitch, without mc we wouldn't be on the pitch and thanks to mc our results on the pitch have got slowly and surely better. we was on a downwards curve on the pitch now thanks to mc the curve is upwards. I do wish he would stop with media but then the media will always find something won't they, I suggest us fans stick to the positives and stick to the players who cross the line and don't worry about off field stuff until it affects us on the pitch and by that I mean we go back to our old home before mc which was league 1.

Fine mopping up! Cameron Stewart, Gibbs,Lucy Ward. Just how much of Cellino's mopping up do we have to put up with. More court cases to come and more money wasted on lawyers. The problem BW is that with all these extra costs we will have less to put in the pitch. We also have no head of recruitment, no-one running the academy, no scouts and Cellino and his sons in charge.

i have to say deda I do see a good vaild point to your post and do not disagree. i'm not sure if this money comes out of leeds pot or mc's back pocket either way it is not ideal. I just have to try and stay positive if I think about it too much I will cry as I don't have much else to live for, if you knew my mrs you'd understand.
