a lot doesn’t make sense, if he is willing to pay 20k a month rent he may as well pay Swann up and build the new ground and sell GP off himself
Mick the way I heard that bit is that if Swann agrees to sort out the site issues preventing the sale then Hilton will pay him £20k a month rental for that period.
Of the issues Hilton raised with Swann to be resolved the one regarding the unregistered strip of land is the one that could take some time to complete (I think 2 to 3 months was mentioned).
Hilton clearly stated if Swann resolves the issues that were unknown to Hilton back in January then he will pay the £3.5m
They are probably calling each others bluff so we will probably find out the rights and wrongs of the situation when we know who blinks first.
