Leeds United, a club recently embroiled in a controversy over the disqualification of owner Massimo Cellino, have found themselves at the centre of yet more farcical allegations.
Prior to being owned by Cellino, the club was owned by a group named GFH who had agreed to sell a 75% stake to a group known as Sport's Capital.
The deal collapsed however and the stake was sold to Cellino. GFH are now being sued by Sports Capital for £33m, Sports Capital have made some ludicrous claims against GFH as part of this according to BBC's Adam Pope.
