    So we.have something of a conundrum...Firpo is sh1te as a defender but it's ok because he is "trying". And is that same paradigm to apply to any and all Leeds players, try hard no matter how good you are and all will be well. What other conclusion would you suggest?

    And as for the thread title?

    He used (and abused) LUFC for.no other reason than to further his interests in another , totally unrelated club.

    Bates was a sh1thead but at least we knew what he was about because he made no secret of it, GFH were a disaster waiting to happen for all who had eyes to see.

    Cellino for all his madcap actions was a breath of fresh air, taking on the footballing authorities and getting some "traction.".

    Radrizzani exploited Cellinos lack of.financial nous, just as others (49ers) have exploited Radrizzanis exposure. He (Radrizzani) has also exploited the willingness.of the 49ers to invest. So far the balance sheet is very much in the 49-ers favour

    No conundrum for me.. I get a cold sweat when heÂ’s defendingÂ… I donÂ’t think heÂ’s a good defender and wonder why we havenÂ’t got someone better. ItÂ’s not his fault he is getting picked. But I appreciate if players are picked and give effort to the shirt. He does offer something going forward and seems to get on with the rest of the team, but not my ideal defender.

    Both our full backs seem to want to play 1 position further up the pitch.

    Bates was a disaster, you must be the only one who knew what he was about.. he siphoned off funds to offshore places, no potential buyer could fathom out the clubs actual viability and worth, he sold anybody who was bid on, mostly too cheap.. he isolated the fans hence the big drop in home attendance with much bad feeling around Elland Road.
    Massimo solved the riddle, handed us over in better shape. By the end of ARÂ’s reign which was far from perfect we were attractive enough for the 49rs to get involved, something impossible during Bates reign.

    Radz put a shift in, learned lots & made a few mistakes for sure but dunno whats to dislike about the bloke overall.

    Any investing can allow you to increase the value of your money by buying assets that match your "risk tolerance", financial goals & investment horizon.

    Obviouly Radz investment can be defined as an asset that was created with the intention of helping his wealth to grow over time & help secure his future financial requirements as was the case at Sampdoria.

    Nothing wrong with wealth created through investment plans which can be used for a variety of objectives such as meeting shortages in income, saving up for retirement, or "fulfilling certain specific obligations such as repayment of loans", funding your kids higher education & buying of other assets, etc.

    He was always clear that he wanted to walk away from business at 50 - stating in 2020;
    “I always want to do more and more,” he says, “but in reality I give myself another five years to push and build, and then I want to give more time to myself as a person and family and other priorities, philanthropic activities. I started some already but I want to do more in that space and I think when I’m 50, 51, I’ll start to change the priorities.

    “From 30 to 40, I built the capital. Now, from 40 to 50, I’m investing the capital to build more. From 50, I need to enjoy it and give back to the community.”

    I've no probs with the bloke - just saying.👍

    I’m rather bothered I totally overlooked Celino. He was a crazy man but we better off than before he owned us

    Met Cellino - he was a character and a half.
