I spoke to a very well informed member of SFC staff last night (you hear him quite a lot) and told me that terms were agreed with Theo and it was Theo himself who changed minds at the 11th hour because he was skeptical of our league position (rightly so) and didn't want to potentially drop down to the Championship in a world cup year. He also told me that contingency plans are in place for if/when/maybe we do go down that 90+ SFC staff will be made redundant. Plus, the biggest part potentially is that no person from the SFC staff have met Mr Gao
