Smart business

Might also be in the club's best interests

Delia won't let him buy her toy except at a price he thinks is stupid and on terms which won't allow him freedom. He might also think "Delia's made a right f**k up over the last few years, I'm buggered if I'm going to put money in which she gets to decide how to spend - she'll waste it and the club will be no better off."

So IF we went down (aaarrrggghh) and IF he was still interested and IF Delia's pride would let her sell to him, then he would get control at a more realistic price. And if money then came in we would be well placed to bounce back.

        The valuation was a reaction to his 20m transfer budget though (NCFC) - Smickers, Nov 12, 12:38:15
        
        I think that's what is happening too (NCFC) - Smickers, Nov 12, 12:28:40
        
        I think the Turners came in with the same intention (NCFC) - camcan, Nov 12, 12:47:53
        
        Yup, it's been obvious since the Turners failed to finance the Tiny buy (NCFC) - Old Git, Nov 12, 12:56:04

        So you actually believe Delia (NCFC) - Old Git, Nov 12, 13:13:22
        
        What is the alternative? Just assume an offer has been made on the basis of conjecture (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 12, 13:20:28

        I thought that was the initial line of them leaving (NCFC) - Smickers, Nov 12, 13:05:06
        
        i'd guess it helped make up their mind (NCFC) - blindasabat, Nov 12, 13:10:39

        i don't think such a plan would help heal the rifts (NCFC) - blindasabat, Nov 12, 11:53:37
        
        There wasn't an original offer though apparently? (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 12, 13:02:22
        
        It would at least be a silver lining (NCFC) - Old Git, Nov 12, 11:53:36
        
        I'm convinced that that is his Plan B. Wait until we're relegated. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Nov 12, 11:43:56
