I don't think GFH give a flying proverbial about Cellino's largesse or otherwise once they've sold Leeds, just as Krasner didn't care about Bates. They are very similar sales processes - a seller who has run out of cash streams but with apparently imminent bills, who will take any offer at that moment that offers a decent cash sum and a clean escape.
It looks like it's pretty much done and dusted now. We just have to hope (perhaps over-optimistically) that Cellino will have learnt something from the goings on of the last week and realise that charging in with a bull in a china shop sweep out approach will alienate the fan base (revenue source) very quickly and so will instead use the rest of this season to appraise his new acquisition rather more reflectively, giving those in situ (Brian) time to show their worth. That may be wishful thinking given his track record, but you hope a successful businessman will realise he may have to flex his leadership style for a different environment. > On 6 Feb 2014, at 21:08, Paul Cundell <p...@cundell.com> wrote: > >> On 6 Feb 2014 18:22, <tim.whe...@talk21.com> wrote: >> >> And if Cellino should be deemed to fail the Football League's 'Fit and > Proper Persons' test, then presumably GFH would then have to sell for > whatever someone else was perpared to offer.
