Is this the attempted flip folk keep referring to?

Yes thats it. It was so far advanced Mark Campbell was directly discussing transfers with Ross.

I also LOVE the quote: “The thing with it is, this isn’t about getting top dollar and selling an American billionaire.”

Because that’s literally what he tried to do for the following 8 months 😂

Absolutely. Showed how desperate he was to flip it and go
 
That will be one of them, yes. Selling majority share within a year and keeping a portion to make an increased profit if/when we get back to the PL using someone else's cash.

He would be stupid to sell 100% in league 1. He seems to have changed tact with FPP with a PL bonus for the sale rumoured to be one of the hitches.

imo he wouldnt sell completely anyway. He would just take a minor shareholding and acl we get to the PL with someone elses money so he can cash in then,

Absolutely spot on Jacky, infact it was his changing the goalposts and his insistence on maintaining contact within the club that caused the FFP deal collapse.

if I was buying a business I would also want a clean break,I would not want anyone from the past earning from my investment or my success
 
I thought this bloke Campbell had a deal for a Scottish club fall through as he failed to pass the financials ? - Aw hang I didn’t realise this is from last year :oops:

The echo reckons he has discussed takeovers with at least 10 different parties in the 18 months he has been here, if that is not someone looking to flip it i don't know what is. I suspect the reason none of them have been completed is that he wants a hell of a lot more than what he bought it for.
