Sure, it's not directly linked. But the only real way of balancing out our losses

and liabilities on our books, and being able to put a new squad together is through player sales. And unfortunately Howson is one of very few saleable assets that we have.

When you think of the amount we have wasted in the past two years on stupid transfers, it's very disappointing to be in the situation where we need to sell one of our best players for a pretty modest fee.

        Fair enough but that doesn't equate to 6 million for Howson against a loss of 10 million (NCFC) - Dunney, Jul 4, 13:27:36
