Massimo Cellino got Banned
Massimo Cellino is the President of the English League Championship club Leeds United but the Italian entrepreneur was banned from having absolutely anything to do with the club after it was discovered that Cellino was found guilty of tax evasion. The ban was given to Cellino on December 1st of 2014 and extends until April of the current year, even though Cellino made an appeal against this decision it was rejected.
It was however, on January 23rd when Cellino started his ban after his appeal was rejected.
After this tax evasion incident was identified, Cellino was disqualified and not eligible from owning a club.
The 59 year old Italian entrepreneur has now revealed his intentions of not resuming his presidential role at Leeds Uniteds when his Football League ban expires in the summer. In order to comply with the ban that Cellino received, he had to sell a minority share in the club and now he is not the majority shareholder of the club. (more…)

Neil Redfearn planning to spend high in January Transfer
Leeds United manager Neil Redfearn has confirmed that the club are planning to be active during the January transfer window in order to arrest the slide.
Leeds have been slipping down the table since the start of the season. Owner Massimo Cellino has not been able to achieve much success despite several managerial changes. Even thoughRedfearn’s position at the club continues to be under speculation after yet another defeat in the league, he believes that January will provide him with an opportunity to strengthen their squad and improve results.
The club have taken just one point from the last five league matches and the year ended with a 2-0 defeat against Derby County. The immense poor form shown by Leeds United is made even worse by the fact that they have scored only two goals in the last five matches. As a result, they sit just one point above Millwall in the drop zone. The Championship takes a break for a week as the third round of the FA Cup begins with Leeds United travelling to the Stadium of Light to take on Sunderland.Redfearn will be hoping for victory which would then come as a major confidence boost for the team ahead of the away match against Bolton.
“Perhaps there’s got to be a bit of short-termism here.The boys who are here have been fantastic but they need some help. They need other players to come in, freshen us up and give us a bit of experience. But I’ve had this conversation with Massimo. We’re well aware of it. We need that depth, that competition and real game-changers on the bench. At the moment it’s not the case. In the first half we were quite measured and organised but the goal just before half-time put a different slant on things,” said Redfearn.
