So we are in chaos for 3 months, bet they dock us points too...

Why did they give the go ahead just to decided to not allow it several months later? fkers!!

The real issue isn't the 3 months but it's the long term implications. Cellino has other tax fraud cases pending in Italy, he is likely to lose those as well. I guess the main thing is if he can step back but leave his kids in charge of the club. If the FL don't allow that then we are in a whole world of trouble. I can see him wanting to sell up and Uncle Kenneth stepping in to save us once again. Typical Leeds!

It's handy that his old lap dog Shaun Harvey is chief exec of the FL isn't it!

Said tonight he will just get somebody else to sign the cheques. Maybe his son , he is taking advice how far he needs to step back. But the bigger problem is his lawyer had the written judgement from this case and kept it under wraps so Celliino will face the FL again for that. And has already been mentioned he has another case awaiting a trial date for another yacht he may not have paid taxes on. That could be a 12 month ban. This could be the start , but we are a crisis club nothing is too bizarre look how poorly the club has been run for the last 10 years.

Massive win but as every clouds on the horizon. Cellino is caught up in another legal problem in Italy. Sorry for the downer.

I mean... What the hell?! I didn't listen tonight due to other commitments (and besides, I was expecting humiliation) but beating the league leaders? Whatever else is going on in Cellino's life, I'll gladly take these 3 points!

We aren't going to set the league on fire, but these last few games have given us some very valuable points. Hopefully we can get some inertia and positive mood in the dressing room now.

Well. Middlesbrough (league leaders, undefeated in 11 games).

Leeds. Well, we all know the story there. Looking like this at 73 mins:



Now 5 wins from 6 league games, 11th in the division! woohoo

Okay, so we are still ninety squillion points away from the playoffs, but 3 more points away from the demotions too! Yet again, when all the political and legal squabbling stops, we actually get the result.

"Inspired, resilient, hard-fought." According to the BBC, that sounds like the Leeds I know.
