"buy the club out of administration. None of the board wanted that of course. To be honest I didn't really know much about the administration process at first"

Jesus, this is chronic. Could he not just have made another of his fabled blog posts?
"Anyway as it happened there was interest to buy the club without the need for admin. Given that I sold the club free of all callable debt. For £1 you'd hope that that would get some interest going."

Would it be fair to say that Black's gut instinct - which has clearly served him well in business - was right when it came to PDC? There's something a bit soul destroying about the thought of Di Canio making unfair demands on a our small but perfectly formed football club.

Well, he is just ambitious.. and if he managed to get promoted, all these demands, and spending would have been seen as investments.

But at the end of the day, it was their choice to agree to the demands and give him what he wanted.

No. There's to much here I don't like especially involving spencer. I will not have this club being held to ransom. Pdc and spencer have questions to answer.

Option for raising cash quickly was to sell Matt Ritchie. Di Canio and Spencer knew this and there had, I'm told, been a lot of discussions
