    Not a chance YWBK. That "honour" goes to Rachubka or Bessone.

    Thanks Josh.

    Anyone else just slightly concerned?

    Are these guys the investors with Bates staying on, are they the go-between money men for a third party or are they buyers?

    Yes

    1) Concerned they are only investing
    2) Concerned that Al Sheikh Whatever his name is can't afford us so needs a large loan - What would that mean long term?

    Lots of thoughts running through my head with it all...

    Couple of copy and paste jobs here for you from another site.

    BIG will know more but I understand that the buyers plan reveal themselves once the deal is done. As GFH are just the brokers I assume they will fall away once the deal is done.*

    * This is from experience, I am not saying that this is what will happen here.

    Seems a little strange to entertain just the 'brokers' in the deal - I would have thought that they were a bit more than just brokers, guess we might all find out one day but thanks for the update Bucks <ok>

    This level of brokers are also advisers. Part of the strategy could be becoming clearer - maybe the propsective owners wanted to see the actual facts of the matter in terms of a match, what the income really was like, in all parts of the club etc etc

    Key thing to note is that they are a sharia-compliant bank, which has specific connotations for the new owners if they want other investors via this group. Not sure of most of the details, but it is vastly different from our banking system.

    If the prospective owners are using this lot as advisers, they are very wealthy indeed, or at least trying to make it look like they are. And they are serious about it.
