Let me start this by saying I still think Simon Corney is a twat.

 

But, we turned down substantial bids for Chris Taylor, Chris Porter, Lee Hughes, Carl Winchester, Dave Mellor, an ageing Peter Clarke. We managed to get 500k for Neal Trotman. We got Rotherham to pay 350k for JCH. We got good fees for youth team players Spencer, Renshaw and Philliskirk. We got 300k for Tom Eaves. Admittedly it was a tribunal, but we got nearly 100k for Deane Smalley. We even got six figures for Chris O'Grady when he was absolutely shite for us.

 

So I'm not sure I agree with you on this...

I think quite a lot of those were when Blitz was still pulling the purse strings. Once he pulled away and left it to Corney and the backing of Blitz dried up, Corney had little money and even less idea, so we had to take money from wherever we could get it to survive, including selling a sell on clause amd dodgy scouse loans.

You are right though, Corney is a twat.

It's not necessarily about backing though, however much money you have you can always be close to the edge if you spend to the limit on players/perimeter fences/Shanghai casinos and be forced to sell assets on the cheap
