If he puts ?20m in in return for new shares, so that all that money is available to the club to spend at his behest as new majority shareholder, then wouldn't that mean that Delia gets nothing? Maybe the argument is the spread between what she gets and what NCFC Limited gets.

I think this is great, by the way. Good tactics by Cullum.
