I agree with you Stanley - Moores is the man who took us on when we were the best... and he turned us into also-rans.
If the point of Moores' letter is to put pressure on H&G, that won't work. If anyone really thinks the Yankers will now sell up because of this, they need their head checking. They aren't going to give up on hard $ for sentiment.
The whole point for the Yanks (and they have always known this) is that they will make their $ when they come to sell us - that was their plan all along - and sadly, it will work.
Moores strikes me as a very silly man - more money than sense (often the case with folk who inherit fortunes). The Yanks saw him coming and Moores was 'done'. We have had to suffer the consequences as a result.
Never a truer word or 10 spoken.
