IT is true a brief snippet from the FL STATEMENT THEIR SITE. "In the current absence of detailed reasons for the conviction from the Sardinian Court and having taken into account the principles of Italian law, an independent QC reached a different conclusion. On this basis, Massimo Cellino is cleared to be a Director of Leeds United." MOT

On OS and tv news

They can't intervene later - As we have already seen with other owners with dubious backgrounds, once they are in that is it.
The FL have ratified the takeover so whatever happens further down the line won't affect MC being a director.
He can now concentrate on sorting out the mess that GFH left behind.
I am sure that there will be more revelations about the books coming soon once he has had a proper look at them.
MC will then prove to the FL and all the doubters that he will do a good job at Leeds and try to get them back to where they have been before

At last! HAPPY DAYS!

The news was on ssn News.Leeds united is a sleeping giant and I am very suprised someone has just noticed what potential leeds has. There has been to many people in charge of Leeds inhn the past ten years that don't have a cluye how to run a club and that's why we are still in Airbus. MC will sort this mess out he has many years experience of running a club and he is a football man not just some muppet wanting money from Leeds and bleeding us dry

Hi ed, just read something about cellinio and it said briefly about the takeover not being ratified, so if this is true could the fl say that he can't be out owner?

Believable8 Unbelievable37

{Ed002's Note - Cellino has largely taken owner and holds 75% of the Leeds shares.}

What time is the league meeting today ed?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed003's Note - don't know sorry.}

They have no choice but to ratify it. They have to be seen to abide by their own appeal process, otherwise they wouldn't have a leg to stand on legally. They are basically just posturing, pretending its their final decision when both we and they know the outcome of the appeal process in binding with no further counter appeal.

Been told paddy kenny will be in goal for sat game hope it's right

Believable28 Unbelievable23

I hope so too. I know paddy gets a lot of stick but he's been brilliant this season for us. Butland had an outstanding debut but the amount he has conceded since is alarming to say the least. I was never a Butland fan. I thought he was massively overrated. After watching the game vs middlesboro I admit I had changed my opinion, but now I'm starting to think I was right again but in fairness the defence and midfield allow too much pressure on the keeper.

Agree3 Disagree1

Jack butland is miles better then kenny not his fault he has a crap slow defence infront of him kenny is a midget and not good enough for a league 1 side

Agree3 Disagree7

As long as he stays away from McCormack's and Hunt's (Soccer CIty) Bar he will do fine.

Agree0 Disagree0

CarlLUFC: to be fair Paddy had exactly the same 'crap defence' in front of him and conceded less goals.
