The article was written before we sold Robertson, Gauld, Soutar, Armstrong, GMS and Ciftci, so it's no surprise that when they did go, most United fans were under the impression that the club had to be debt free with the transfer figures quoted.

It's clear that the money coming in for those sales was miles off the mark but no one at the club came forward to deny the figures because they wanted the fans to be under the impression that they were accurate to justify the mass sales and to alleviate pressure on the chairman.
