Isn't he ending up with the amount he wanted ? 

 

i'd love to be outcunted with an extra £2m in my back pocket

But that’s his maximum and final earning off us he was banking on / hoping for more quite clearly 

I’ll take this one small victory against him knowing that it’s the victory that won the war for the club

Some may say deserved if he gets everybody paid and leaves the club in good hands. 

Wonder if KA knew Basran couldn’t complete.

Ok 

Ken was not planning on defending the order today. 

That would’ve left 7 days to do a deal. 

Ken would’ve held all the power as anybody wanting to buy/save the club would have to pay him and then HMRC etc. He could’ve dictated his price effectively such was the desperation of the situation. 

By making themselves known last night and indicating they would pay Ken’s price, it gave him cause and valid reason to seek the adjournment, as without it the deal may not have been completed in time and he loses a pay day. It was also a condition of the buyer that the club not be under the WU order. 

What this now means is that Ken has a buyer at a price he is comfortable with. HOWEVER, if he messes them around they will simply refuse to deal with him and wait until the 3rd to take back his shares. 

They have the ability to take back the shares by novating (transferring) the ICI- Moonshift debt to themselves. 

Worth noting that Ken wouldn’t have known the debt had been novated until after the court hearing, or whenever Lee opens his post.

Never leave us

Please.

Still not sure why are they agreeing to pay Ken anything though? Surely they can just call the shares in and save £2m

They could do that, but they see value and want the deal, they just didn’t want the pain of negotiating with him.

Does this mean this buyer has already been talking to moonshift about the shares without Ken knowing and that they have also satisfied moonshift that they have sufficient funds to do the deal and pay the debts?

He's been spot on since Post One.

After the hysteria and bellyaching of twitter and Facemither, he's a breath of fresh, accurate air.

I'm certainly more optimistic than I was.

Correct 

The deal is simply- Moonshift have given notice to Ken under a back to back agreement that sees them transfer the debt in 14 days to the new bidder, allowing them to take ownership.

They know either way that they get paid in the next 14 days.

When do you expect a deal to be completed Howard? Will it be as you previously said just before the wages need paying for this month?

I don’t think wages will be an issue, Ken knows these guys are completing, they may even fund it themselves.

Howard 

Is it feasible that the back to back deal was done in respect of the £5 million secured only  ?

And the supposed £3 million unsecured could have been in part waived by The Davies family so that in effect Eddies parting gift is to pay off Ken his farewell divi , leaving the new buyers to put all their monies into the club ?

Quite possible, also possible that this waiver of £3M is actually funding Ken’s fee
