MA is trying desperately to divert attention away from his difficulties at HOF - a brand he and the previous management have trashed.
DEB's is three times the size and infinitely more salvageable than HOF, without DEB's HOF is toast unless seen as a trophy to be subsidised by SPD shareholders.
Hence the bluffing today about needing £40m and going bust.
I am not familiar with the rules of takeovers but something stinks about how MA and his fat mate Odey have trashed the DEB's share price and equally how professional the BOD of DEB's continue to behave despite his underhand manoeuvring.
