I just hope things do not jeopardise our plans going into next season, that's all.

I don’t think it will and it really shouldn’t in my opinion. Transfers would be deemed a Business As Usual activity for a football club and the two bidders surely know they’ve got to cover it (and both easily have the money to cover it).

Apple won’t stop manufacturing electronics or designing new technology if they’re in the midst of an M&A event for example.

Will jeopardise until January IF it happens

It could be too late by then though. I don't want to be dropping silly points next season. To have the best chance of success, we need to be having our full squad for pre-season. Anything other than that has to be seen as a handicap, especially considering what other clubs will be doing.

I would be okay with not getting any material benefit until January if the club sale was confirmed before the start of the season. That's the best we can hope for now.

What do you mean by material benefit?

I am beginning to fear we will not get new owners. Glazers are just looking for an investor. They never intended to sell majority. Come 2024 Glazers will still be the owners.

I get that impression. I might be wrong but as I understand it, sir Jim is after a majority shareholding and having to borrow to get that. Thus the Glazers will still be on the board and we will still have some kind of debt
 
it's all so sordid isn't it?
it wouldn't surprise me if the qataris call the kinehans in as 'negotiators of last resort'.
