Why would someone who has the cash to buy a football club want the football club to sell the football assets to create cash on the balance sheet?
Very true, reckon the opposite is true with young potentially outstanding talents, you can sell brands with that sort of player (like we should have done with Rooney if Bill hadn't wrecked the club).

Or...

Why wouldn't a business trying to improve its asset base raise circa £40m in cash rather than having an asset valued substantially lower ? Doubt Stones value is much on balance sheet.

Your assuming takeover talks are advanced. Why wouldn't the club want this before initiating a sale of the club to prospective investors?

One, because hopefully they recognise that the most valuable assets of a football club are its players (regardless of value on the balance sheet) and two, the price of a football club has very little to do with usual investment metrics. Valuing a football club is more akin to valuing a lease on a very desirable piece of real estate. The real estate being the Premier League, the lease being valued on length (ie likelihood of staying in the PL), and yield (being the amount of prize money to be expected based on assumption of likely league position each year plus likelihood of Champions League qualification.)
 

you don't think he needed to get the KD decision right then?

Would of been a great thing.. But was clearly not critical to our survival.. A bad manager where we were could of cost us more than a potential investor.

The manager was the one he HAD to get right

I see, you're taking the view that he only needed to do enough for us to survive.

I don't think that's good enough. But it's all just opinions I suppose.
