Expectations for next season

[TezzaWazzaBazza]

Mid table would be fine, as long as the team is developing. The following season I would expect an assault on the top 6.

There are reports that there are more unpleasant financial surprises at the club which Cellino's accountant has to sort out, and maybe more in the pipeline too. If there's one thing about him which I feel confident about, it's that he ain't no asset stripper. I suggest you take that little monkey on your shoulder and take it to the vets for a good 'talking to'

The first of those being the fact Leeds were supposed to pay the bulk of Morisons wages while he was at Millwall but because of our dire financial state we didnt and Millwall ended up paying all his wages. Now they want the money back from us.

If this is true, just how have GFH got away with this? I can't imagine they told Cellino about this arrangement when selling him the club as an ongoing viable concern and just for arguments sake, we owe £15k per week of his wages x52 weeks that's over £750k. Maybe that's why Cellinos talking about criminal charges being laid at the previous owners door.

My source is a Millwall mad fan that I work with. He is up to speed with everything Millwall and spends as much time darn sarf as he does in Yorkshire. The deal apparently was we would cough up 75% of his wages but we have not paid for months.

Nothing surprises me in football these days, with all the crazy shady dealings that go on, even more so at Leeds.

The arrangement must have been that Millwall paid Morison in full and Leeds reimbursed Millwall for 75%, otherwise Morison would not have been paid. Millwall should have invoiced Leeds for the 75% in which case it would show as a Creditor in Leeds books. If this is not the case then it could be that the arrangement was on a more casual basis with Leeds just sending the cash (or not, it appears) However, this commitment to pay should have been reflected in Leeds accounts. If it wasn't then Cellino would have a case against GFH.

Maybe Cellino's just unaware of the debt? He is new.

[Barlow Boy]

otherwise Morison would not have been paid.

[USA for Leeds]

Expectations for next season? Right now, mid table again. Can't see us doing better. Hopefully that will change.

[SG90]

The Championship is a very poor league, if we can get 3/4 new additions that improve the side, there's no reason to believe we can't challenge the play offs. Ross, Byram, Mowatt, Murphy, Smith, Pearce, Lees is a good nucleus to build from. Burnley were mid-table the season before and I believe, one of the favourites for relegation last year, so they should be someone to look up to.

[Loyallufc2]

Well if we can keep our captain maybe a chance of creeping in to the play offs. Hope that is a realistic hope!
