Don't really see how anyone can complain as it's money that goes straight into the club and can't be withdrawn at a later date.
But instead of adhering to financial fair play and having a vaguely level playing field like FFP intends (although there's an argument it does more to help the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor), they'll have £500m available through a convenient inflated deal.

The bubble will burst and some stage lets build a club that won't go bust?
