Or: 5. Club try to get first choice, make a balls of it, try to go for an expensive option at the very last minute to appease the fans knowing full well there was no way they could complete the deal. Then make an excuse that the other side would not sign the papers. In my opinion FSG are no better than H&G. The ultimate business model of both is exactly the same i.e. buy at a cheap price, suck as much money as they can out of the club and then try to sell us at a profit (its going to happen). The only difference is H&G were complete lunatics in the way they went about things. FSG are much smarter and come across as more civilised and 'caring' and hence get less grief. A bloodsucker is a bloodsucker regardless of the clothes he is wearing.
