An afternoon with a 'madman' ‏

By Keith Ingham

It didn't surprise me that after a short while back from his enforced exile in Miami, Massimo Cellino was back behind the microphone trying to explain where Leeds United go from here.

Nearly seventy minutes passed, including a cigarette break without Sheriff Cellino making one statement that didn't question his mental state or ours for listening to the garbage that comes out of the Italian's mouth. There is a saying going around that you can tell when the megalomaniac is lying it's usually when his mouth is open!.

I need to question a few of the 'statements' he made, number one he claims to have spent Ross McCormack's transfer fee on the players, I use the word with caution because apart from a handful they would grace only a non league teams substitute bench. Over nine million pounds in fees and wages. Well Mr Cellino you appointed the man that organised the purchase of said players so perhaps this might be your mistake. Number two you claimed that the club would be ready to push for promotion in 2015/16 but this seems to have moved to the season after 2016/17 and you claim that you will sell if this is not achieved under your tenure. That's two but I won't bore you with more because the underlining fact is that the man is a liar and a fraud. Not fit to run a market stall never mind a club with such a rich history.

I feel for Adam Pearson in a little way, the look on his face gave the impression of a rabbit caught in the headlights not sure or which way to run. Without doubt Pearson is there in case that another court finds this 'charming man' guilty of another misdemeanour and without a shred of doubt where this man (Cellino) travels, trouble is his travelling companion.

Neil Redfearn might have missed his little 'get together' but it does not warrant him being treated with such a lack of disrespect. I hope that now somebody out there sees what the fans of Leeds see and take him away from the cesspit the club is becoming. It would be a fitting achievement if his next club gains promotion, while Leeds have their usually dally with relegation next season.

I fear for my club whilst this lunatic holds control and pray that sooner or later he is removed for somebody who actually gives a s#%t about this wonderful football club and it's fans.
I do not like Massimo Cellino, can you tell ?.
