Cheers HC.

Do you think (or ITK) that McC has found some serious backers then?

If so, good, if not, and the prince walks, then we are worse off as we have no one to match McC's ( limited )investment.

The itk bit was about the DOF. I'm assuming he must have backers lined up - as I'd think the Prince must have - to enable for a deal to be done either way. The Prince will want at least his £17m share investment back as will McCabe plus the real estate. Then standing alone they would have to cover any losses AND invest in the te. Unlikely either of them can do that.

If I were to guess, and that's all it is, I'd say KMc has been cute and got his backers lined up already, because he pushed the process. Maybe catching HRH on the back foot. Even though it's about the FC this is business not the running of it. In business, he's a player and no ones fool. Again, that's not a criticism of the Prince or his business acumen.

hes got to have hasnt he tt ? and surely mcabe if he has activated this clause must be confident his new backers can not only buy the prince out but also provide the funds for team recruitment in the summer
