You really couldn't make this up. In scenes that could easily feature in a US Legal drama, the solicitor, representing Massimo Cellino has been asked to leave Elland Road and escorted from the premises.
Chris Farnell, a specialist Sports solicitor made the fateful telephone call to Brian McDermott on Friday evening, and in a new twist, was escorted from Elland Road by Haigh and Patel, along with security staff. No doubt Farnell was only operating under instruction from Cellino, but it does show GFH-C are not certain the proposed takeover will go through.
Meanwhile, the other interested parties headed by Andrew Flowers and Mike Farnan are understood to be working together now and have devised an offer that will match the Cellino bid. Discussions are set to take place tomorrow.
It is a fast moving story with changes all of the time. We'll do our best to keep you updated.
