It's not impossible that the potential time to conclude the takeover puts funding at risk for a month or so. Black may well have said I'll write the debt off but I'm fucked if I am paying the bills for c lub you will actually own. Club only has one day in which it can raise finance through selling a player and Ritchie going covers the entire period needed. Prevents financial issues in the short term while nobody at the club can access either the old guys funds or the new guys funds.

Have the club actually said anything official all day?
Only thing that pisses me off, if we are selling Ritchie in urgent need of cash, we have a perfectly good saleable asset at fucking Birmingham while we are stuck with some cunt that doesn't even play.

Hmmm, 500k is a giveaway if true. I would expect more players to follow.

I thought the days of selling our better players on the cheap to the first bidder were over, clearly not...
I thought the days of the club lacking ambition were over again clearly not
We're 3rd in L1 for fuck sake, we should not be selling our top players and for 500k - take out what we paid for him and Portsmouth cut and we've probably made a loss anyways.
Fucking spot on, it's alright we still have a stable club though even if we will be in League 1/2 for the next 15 years! |

OK, I've had time to consider and reflect on this at length and I conclude...
He was crap, I never rated him, we're better off without him and he's easily replaceable.

It's quite possible this was the bit about avoiding administration - if Black won't pay Febs bills and the new guys can't do anything without FL sign-off, we'd have been fucked. |

I'll go with that - sounds as good a theory as any. |

Promotion to the Championship is worth more than a measley 500k minus Portsmouths cut. Short sighted. |
