actually, it is entirely true. the letter was not a legally binding document. end of.

exactly why is it a cheek to sell a player for £8m rather than £6.8?
would you expect any other team to accept a smaller transfer fee than the one offered by an interested party?

you are letting yourpersonal feelings about Man Utd cloud your thinking.
