    Seemingly AA upped the price when an agreement had all but been reached, at this point the Yanks walked.

    Thanks. Not surprised, it's in character. I'm amazed Bruce is still here as everything seems to be at odds with what I thought his conditions for staying were.

    It does look that way. I don't think they'll come back, but that's just me.

    I agree I think they have ****ed the deal up, unlikely to happen any time soon now.

    is there any deal they haven't ****ed up - we nearly bought Long in the first transfer window but then they tried to renegotiate the terms and WBA walked - they see themselves as some kind of super negotiators but in reality they're hopeless - lets hope this **** up costs them tens of millions

    When the club is eventually sold, I suspect it will be for far less that the deal they've just blown, this was the perfect time for them to sell.

    The problem with that is that the word will get out that the Allams are untrustworthy ****s.

    No one will want to even try and negotiating with them if they know they are going to be jerked around.

    This really does sum up their business acumen.

    If the sale has gone for now due to excessive ****ishness, then the obvious plan of action is to scarf as much of the PL cash as possible repaying Allamhouse loans.

    They can then sell the club from the Championship (or if they are really lucky from the PL) for a reduced price; shall we say £40m. If done right it could potentially increase their proceeds.

    It would certainly be the most ****ish option so I think its a possibility.

    WBA rumoured to have been sold to Chinese for £150m.
    If that is accurate then £100m for us us a very good price.
