>>think when Bates put that clause in he knew Healy and Nicholls were gone for approx 1.5m so its in Bates' interest not to sell Douglas or Beckford otherwise it triggers a payment to the creditors if the total for the 4 goes above1.5m (which we are at)<< That's how I read it too. He's already turned down a bid for Beckford from Sc*nthorpe AFAIK. I think Beckford will do very well for us this season. Also note that Cresswell and Blake were not named - so no payments to creditors as a result of them being sold. Mark
