After reading this BBC piece, http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26006243, I really hope the deal goes through. He sounds like a genuinely passionate bloke who speaks his mind. His convictions are for tax evasion, which is honourable in my book. I'm sick of mealy-mouthed businessmen. Haigh and

the point being when something is bad to the core, ie a crook or cancer, its all bad. Having more money as a crook just makes you more powerful, it doesnt make you less crook. On Mon, Feb 3, 2014 at 8:53 PM, Nigel Barber ni...@mindbrix.co.uk wrote: What has cancer to do with this? On 3

Reading his brief bio on the bbc I am not so sure that Cellino is not the right man for us - he has money (something GFH do not have) passion about football and experience Yes he is 'dodgy'  but so are most multi millionaires  The way he treated Brian was bad but a defeat yesterday may have seen

It's strange, I kind of feel the same way. Maybe I'm an eternal optimist but if they can sort out the situation and have Brian back in charge then playoffs could still happen this season. As you say most people with that kind of money have a few skeletons in their cupboard. At least its not
