Just trying to follow your thread Rick as you may possibly have more insight than some on this topic. Are you saying Cellino has no future at Leeds as things stand? If not then what are the implications for the club? Admin?Just trying to get a sense of what may happen next. Best, Jeremy

Seems like we'll not get any new players in during this transfer window now Cellino has lost his appeal, hard to imagine who would come to us now with no guarantee we'll be solvent by the end of the season. What's also worrying is he could apparently face another 12 month ban down the line for

Got to agree. I totally understand the rule, and the reasons for it, but to arbitrarily apply it to some and not others makes it not a rule, but a device used by executive authorities to act upon someone. Apply it to everyone or don't apply it at all. Mind you, I hope it rids us of this

Good summary. Whilst I'm no FA fan, it always seemed likely that MCs tax activity would be enough for the FA to act - so it has proved. Some real venom and bile about the FA on some sites, but bottom-line is he got caught breaking the FAs rules. If other sites info is anything to go by, then
