If, After All The Clubs Posturing...

...they sell for ?7 Million, then they bloody well need to be ashamed of themselves.

?7m is NOT "silly money", and to accept it now, after they have reportedly turned the same amount down in the Summer would be, well, I guess they'd spin it into some sort of "great" deal for the club, but...

And if Crewe's cut (!) is 20% of the profit, meaning that they get ?800'000 plus, well (and good for them) then "silly" is indeed the right phrase to use, but not in positive circumstances.

Its one thing to sell him on, get a fee and move on, but to then do so after all the huffing and puffing about not needing to do so, won't do so, and would only if this "silly" money were involved, well, straw, camel, back etc etc...
