Would like to hear what the old man has to say for himself before passing judgement. Right this minute though I'm well f***ed off.

I don't think its a case of Knight Out but more a Knight you have got some explaining to do. He's gonna get linched otherwise.

I would rather have had Bobby for last season and a chance of staying up than £3m from Everton and being relegated by Xmas

I can probably lend them a tenner but I MUST get it back before the end of the season.

Another summer of blunder. What is wrong with DK? I'd like to hear him out before going overboard though.

Whatever.
If Bobby wanted to go, which he obviously did, we don't have the power any more to make him stay. So, we wait as long as we can for offers from clubs. Coppell basically announces that he is imediately for sale. An offer comes in that DK turns down. AN improved one comes in that will hopefully enable SC to buy a couple of replacements and mean we don't have an unhappy superstar souring his reputation with us.
The offer came at a time when SC had the chance to rebuild a little.
I don't know what other options there were.
When Everton's bid came in, we didn't want to sell and were looking to stay in the first division and get even more for him.
Why does it seem so simple to me, yet so nefarious and conspiratorial to others?

Wasn't the Everton bid this time last year when the market was slightly more healthy than it is now?

Sigh.
If - and it's only an if - Everton had officially bid £3m in March 2002 (before the market peaked) and we hadn't got promotion into the First Division, you would have still wanted Dick Knight out.
You're blaming Dick Knight for the change in the football financial landscape.
He can't win. You're a halfwit. End of.

Lets face it, DK is only going to defend himself and say what a good deal we've got and if bobby had got injured then we'd have got nothing

Agreed, but why let him go so cheaply now? Even Spurs are saying it is a bargain price!

Mullers, what choices were there?
We'd all like to bung someone in the reserves who didn't want to play for us, but thats just not viable.
So we make Tottenham pay more? How? They could go and buy Kanoute and leave Bobby here, unhappy.
The way the market is going, prices are still plummeting.

He wanted to go, we need the money. F***ing disappointing but thats what happens when you're a small club. To blame DK is ludicrous, unless he didn't add a sell on clause and then I'll change my mind.
