sounds like the club are hoping/anticipating a takover will be moving forward before the clocks do:

If something happens in November that will be fantastic but it’s" now not the end of the world if it’s February, for example."

Not how I read it Salad. I don't think he's saying anything is close to be agreed, just that they're still very much looking to sell - this investment isn't the old guard deciding to give it one more go, rather they are steadying the boat and buying themsleves some breathing room.

Perhaps they felt the club was too much of a basket case before and felt it weakened their hand in negotiations - perhaps a bit of speculating to accumulate is going on here.
