I took the question as asking whether you would take the hit on admin/relegation IF the only way to achieve this was if Lowe departed. I agree there are probably more likely chronologies but I believe it was the thinking behind the question nonetheless.
Maybe
With the pieces of jigsaw at my disposal (although admittedly I have lost the lid to the box....literally), I suspect that 'he' is not a "PR plant" in the sense that they are 'under instructions' from anyone....but along similar lines I suspect.....but, that's only a guess and/or an opinion of course....what do I know....?
Depends if you put the question into context or not....
In principle, do I want my left leg amputated?
No, of course not.
Do I want to stop the gangrene spreading from my left leg to the rest of my body?
Yes. Ok, amputate my left leg please.
I was pondering as recently as yesterday why Mr Sale seemed to write about SFC's "boardroom warfare" every other week whilst Crouch was at the helm and yet has had 'nothing to report' since Lowe returned.....
Didn't post my musings here though as it would have been too rhetorical and/or dull given the alleged friendship between Mssrs Lowe and Sale.

Perhaps the most significant paragraph published about SFC nationally in recent times?
Indeed. Have been bandying around that theory for a while now. It could be structured such that Hoddle doesn't actually become an employee per se (and therefore doesn't become the straw that breaks the camel's back in term of debts/costs/administration) as his academy would get mutual benefit from a tie in with a (relatively) major football club.

You "understand"? Were you not there to witness it then?
Still, you're in good company on the non-attendee front....
p.s. enjoying Utah and the film festival?
I still don't understand how someone with such a relatively small stake in the club (I.e. £300k or 5% of capital ?) maintains such a grip on the running of this club. Can anyone explain this to me? Ta
I'm still trying to work out how a server crash can lose all the old TSF posts given data is usually recoverable in such circumstances. Not that I wish to drag up that old conspiracy theory again....
Edit: sorry, forgot this...
