    So price for the club agreed I’m assuming? 

    Debating Loans and whole payment/staggered payments I’m guessing.

    Feels like that shouldn’t be too much of an issue but at this point I don’t even know.

    "Issues over taking over debt and something to do with training ground are complicating it.".

    I assume that RD wants some of the money owed to him left as debt. What could the issue around the training ground be?

    Perhaps he thinks he can hold on to the training ground?


    I raised this issue months ago as a concern however I am now convinced RD wants nothing to do with us once he sells and is not looking to be involved at all 
    Are you including the club having debt owed to him in that?

    It is possible to get an even worse owner than RD.....
    Yes. The hedge fund manager at Coventry,
    or the dreaded Father and son at Blackpool until recently. Only two out of 90 though !
    Wasn't it father and daughter?
    Owen Oyston  was sentenced to 3 years for rape of a 16 year old girl, so his Son Karl then took over and Natalie was made Chairwoman.

    The training ground upgrades RD was carrying out/planning to carry out ever get finished? Maybe if they’re unfinished the new buyer wants the price adjusted etc... for the unfinished work?

    Bolton who had to forfeit a game last season
    Bury who are in a complete mess despite promotion
    The likes of Leyton Orient and Stockport who crashed out of the league under previous mad owners
    Northampton where money invested by the council for a new stand has vanished...

    Does he just mean the £7m owed to the ex-directors and the charges they have over the ground and training ground. That old chestnut!

    While this 1st July date might be convenient for the accounts, it's hardly a fixed deadline. Very few takeovers are made on that date, they happen when they happen

    Could this be the reason why news of new signings is slow so far this week?, bearing in mind how many (4?) are supposed to be coming in the week - know it's only Tuesday though

    You seemed to imply in an earlier post that you were concerned that the Aussies might pip Dalman. How could thay happen if they haven't got the money?

    Deloitte might have been good once, but they're bloody shite now. Worked with them a number of times of late - Mainly their digital branch mind.
