You guys like to argue about loads of stupid things but I haven't heard a logical reason for this.
After the talks he held with the board and Wenget, maybe he harbored some resentment towards them? I can't remember exactly what he said but didn't PHW also come out and allude to him possibly being after the money, which he might have taken exception to?
