EM might have played a blinder here boys rumours are the freehold option might be dropped as low as 6 million for the city ground

Controversial I know but maybe this was the plan all along. Someone as rich and successful as EM is not daft but is also used to driving hard bargains and, can I suggest, usually getting his way. From what others have said the freehold wasn’t previously on the table. Noises are made re about the council, talk made of moving, creating a sports village etc etc and suddenly the freehold is available for £10m, possibly less. Maybe the intention was to stay at the CG all along but our owner etc have played hardball to get the deal they want.
