Crazy thread - the shambles at St Mary's as nothing to do with the bank. At some point a creditor is going to ask for their money back, or at least the interest payments, rather than dishing out extra capital.
somewhere along the line the level of risk pasted the tipping point and Barclays called in the debt. Sounds like fairly standard practise to me. They couldn't allow Lowe to keep running the club on the never-never throwing good money after bad. They had to draw the line somewhere, whether we like it not.
