Cellino declares love for Redfearn

Massimo Cellino is back on the club board after passing the Football League's Owner's and Director's test and has declared that he is "in love" with current manager Neil Redfearn. 

The Italian made the statment on the day he took up the role of Chairman after his Football League imposed ban was lifted. He was quoted as saying, "I need to decide whether Neil is the right man to take the club back to the Premier League. I am in love with Neil and don't want to talk to anyone else about the job and won't interfere with the team."

After the Rotherham game the fans made their support clear for Redfearn, with many donning purple t-shirts to express their support for the head coach and their distaste with the current regime. 

However it is believed that Cellino was not at Elland Road for the final fixture of the season, despite his ban being lifted in time for the game. 

Many Leeds fans have been vocal about their dislike of the Cellino regime for a long time, but the fans' support for Redfearn could be destabilising for the Italian's strict control.

Only time will tell on whether Redfearn will keep his job, however he did what was asked of him and kept United in the division, so we feel he deserves a shot at a full season.

Marching on Together.
