If Things Are THAT Bad...

Then how come there hasn't been a quickfire sale of our players? I would have thought if we needed money urgently wouldn't we have accepted the bids for our players?

I think the board know what they're doing because otherwise they would have looked to sell players. Something is in the pipeline I feel? Maybe Hammam coming on board or a full Malaysian takeover? I can't help but feel there's something we're all missing.

The tradition at this club is to worry the f**k out of it's supporters before some how saving the club at the 11th hour. I would love to think you are right Zabier and there is something lined up that we don't know about yet.

Fingers crossed.

Maybe Zabier it's due to the fact PMG, Ranson get money from sales.

Much like the Jack holding out for more mo9ney for Bodde due to the 50% sell on clause, it might be the case we're holding out for more money because, as it stands, we'd get cock all from any sales based on offers made so far.

Well according to Gethin Jenkins, the tax bill will be paid this week (he released a statement on the official site), so thats one less thing to worry about.

Surely they'd want some money rather than none though? Or are they that naive that they honestly think they can push for more and squeeze every drop out of it?

Zabier, Because nearly All Our players worth any money, are mortgaged to the hilt thanks to The Riddler, therefore if we sell the Club get virtually nothing.

I see now so Riddler used the approx value of a player in return for the loan , so if a player was sold then ALL the money would go straight back to pay off the mortgage ?
