Pryce Griffiths sold the club, and arranged a half a million quid bonus as and when the Racecourse was redeveloped.

Considering the plans was to shift us to somewhere else, flog the site to a retail park like Chester for millions, it appears pretty clear he was happy with that.

As for 'he could not predict what was later to transpire' he was quite happy arranging a deal of getting the bunce on the back end when the ground was sold.

I for one am working towards a similar goal, to ensure I can be lauded I the posh seats in Wembley next time we play there. I mean, all that must be a Good Thing to get such treatment?



(Incidentally the 78% majority shareholding control was possible as the minority shareholders sold up for their silver over the years so what was a diversified ownership became a single point of private ownership.)
