Upto 20 days for the FL to decide on Cellinio!

I agree without doubt they have. All the media have aswell, and every other club.
But we are LEEDS, we are united and will forever march on together as one!

To be fair, Cellino is hardly mother Theresa

Its 19 days spent fishing in an empty pond, trying to find any excuse not to sanction Cellino's takeover and the remaining one day to confirm him as new owner. Simples. MOT

Er, I think when they made up the 15 point deduction for us breaking a rule that didn't exist we all knew that the FL hate us and always will.
We are Leeds

Of course, they should have one meeting with someone with convictions and just say 'fine'. They haven't got it in for Leeds, if they screw up they could become embroiled in a legal mess. Everything takes time.

Makes you laugh Harvey supported bates who in my eyes robbed the club blind and made it almost impossible to understand everything about the club. he's now on the board of the FA and dragging his feet over a decision. The FA are useless they should never have let us get took over in the first place we need someone to take over the club who has a clue how to run it and not just best way to strip it to the bones.

"They haven't got it in for Leeds, if they screw up they could become embroiled in a legal mess."
They gave us 15 point deduction for breaking a rule that didn't exist, where did they get any legal comeback?
They can do whatever they want, you don't like it you can leave the league.

According to your 12th comment it will be announced next week. I call that covering your A**e. Good tho, you have 51/2 weeks to say you were right.

Go luck with the radio venture Jeff. Even looking at it charitably, KB used the club's money and put us in debt by building corporate boxes, when investment in the team would have took us up
When is Massimo going to talk to BMcD?
Agree1

Im a bit bothered by why you always call him "massimo" and not Cellino - and why you have so much "priveleged" information and why you say WE will have an answer - friend of yours?

Haha he has got you there survivor.

People talking about 10 days for Club to present papers and then 5 days FL to consider. Why didn't the Club commence the paperwork as soon as take over agreed?! The Football League rules clearly tell what is required and it is self certification process. Shouldn't have needed a meeting with Football League before started/completed paperwork. Somebody at the Club appears to have wasted time either deliberately or through incompetence!

It's called covering his bases. He knows no more than anyone. big ego trip!
I'm surprised that anyone trying to open his own radio station has so much time to be on here 24/7

We expect an answer?
Massimo?
You seem to know him better than Brian does. haha you wish. dreamer.
I love it.

Me and my mate massimo( or mass as I like to call him) was in a local pizza place sharing a calzone & bottle of chianti last night talking about how we was going to run our club - he said he was going to change the ground name to cornetto road, but I said "no mass, they won't go for that" but mass did take some of my ideas on board,,,,,,,,, oh sorry, thought I was SURVIVOR there for a minute when I actually know nowt

Not sure why people come on here having a pop at Survivor: this is meant to be a rumours site & he is entitled to his opinions and has been proved right on several of them. Time to grow up, guys.If we can't think positive amongst ourselves, what hope have we of flying the flag for our great club
Agree1
Disagree0
Proved right has he? you mean post things we already know are going to happen? hardly mystic meg is he? You'd think him and Mas were bezzies the way he talks. funny as!
Agree1

To the poster who said "not sure why people have a pop at Survivor" - have you not heard the terms "sense of humour" or "friendly banter" and if Survivor is entitled to his opinion isn't everyone else

Just so people know the truth.
I am currently in a race with Master Bates to open a radio station.
He has a lot more cash at his disposal so he will get there first I'm sure of that.
His will be known as Radio Yorkshire based above the Subway but not aligned to LU in any way.
I'm hoping to bring back Yorkshire Radio in the offices behind the East Stand.
Looking at providing football and many many other sports live commentary plus lots of new stuff and working much more closely with fans.
I have a very good relationship with the club and hopefully with Massimo's and David Haigh's help we will get there soon.

Good luck, I miss the Yorkshire Radio, tv Leeds are not up to it and more interested in Huddersfield
Agree0

The trips home from the games have just not been the same since YR ceased. I even miss Eddie interrupting every single caller to tell them what they should be thinking (I suppose he's earned the right).
What's happened to the phone in now we're back on the BBC? Good luck in bringing it all back.

Could not agree more -Thom & Eddie were a class act, and the Friday and Monday evening shows with Dom Matteo et al were unmissable. Bring back the Yorkies! I agree Radio Leeds are part-timers who've been very much Huddersfield & Bradford focused the last few years. They weren't expecting to have to cover Leeds this season (thanks GFH for pulling the plug on YR on the eve of the season!), and consequently their coverage of Leeds feels like -and is- a bit of an afterthought. They have no real insights into the club, and know less about it, and what's going on, than most regular / well-informed fans. And am I the only one who finds Popey just a tad whiney and negative? Anyway, here's hoping we can be hearing the colossal Kirwin and crew back on the airwaves sometime soon. Chapel A

Thom and Eddie still present LUTV and there is always the Monday Club with Thom and Dom Matteo plus guests. LUTV costs me a fiver a month. Hardly bank breaking

{Ed013's Note - I spoke with Thom today and he asked if Jeff was the one that tried buying Yorkshire radio as he can't recall him at work?}
LUTV is hardly a substitute! Both Thom & Eddie and the club itself deserve a wider audience than that. LUTV is by definition for the hard-core fan -we need proper coverage on the airwaves that's going to enthuse / suck in the casual and potential fans (including the kids, who may or may not come from Leeds-supporting families). Radio Leeds are incapable of being the mouthpiece on the airwaves that a club of our stature, appeal and fanbase needs -that's the point. Chapel A

Good luck on your radio venture, you do not say will it be DAB or FM, and when are you hoping to start broadcasting
i miss the old YORKSHIRE RADIO with EDDIE GRAY comments, all the best

Good luck with the station Survivor. Please don't bring Thom back though as he is absolutely hopeless
