It's not strange at all.

 

If he wants to gain control of the Club he is far better taking out another investor, plenty of time to invest his millions once he has control.

 

I suspect he'll have paid somewhere between 0.2% and 0.5% plus stamp duty, petty cash for him anyway.

 

There is no way whatsoever that it had anything to do with that particular investor voting the wrong way at the last AGM.

Might be but I think it's easy to read too many conspiracy theories into this; it might just have been a straightforward investment decision. He may well have given his broker instructions to buy at 20p up to his 10% SFA limit in the short term.

Please forgive me for being cynical where the likes of Ashley is concerned, but as has previously been pointed out, if it was purely an investment decision, he could have acquired his ten percent through the open offer. This was strategic.
