Again I completely agree with every word. Add to that who blocked the Barnes transfer. The bank doesn't own the club. It has shares. But the Monet was coming from Haigh and his consorts. Flowers and Haigh broke ranks. Why? Far too many smoke and mirrors. What I don't like about Cellini is that he was suckered and made to look bloody stupid. In fact I wonder if that makes him more determined or make him walk away. On 3 Feb 2014 21:51, "Chris Wright" <[email protected]> wrote:
