Life is never dull at Leeds United and if the reported decision of new owner Massimo Cellino is anything to go by, the club will continue to fill column inches.

Cellino has reportedly told new head coach Dave Hockaday not to consider Irish goalkeeper Paddy Kenny because of his date of birth.

Kenny is born on May 17th and the Italian considers the number 17 to be bad luck.

The former Cagliari owner had had the seat number 17 changed at his former club, having it reassigned as 16B. 

Kenny, who is Leeds' second highest earning player, was not invited onto the club's pre-season tour.
