Friday 10 May

Think I'm out. We announced a 2 month exclusivity period on 26 March, so I'm revising my guess to 26 May.

I have given up speculating now. I appreciate it’s just all normal marketing, but I still worry when every message from admin is about fans paying money for something.

I still have a horrible feeling that this will just drag on and on until that Huang bloke says the takeover has collapsed. Oddly, he is mostly right about the negative stuff.

[WestYorksRoyal]

I'm still relaxed. These things take time, and the charges against Bearwood and Dai's shares in the club mean they have real leverage.

The exclusivity period can easily be extended if necessary. But for recruitment and planning for next season, you'd really want it done by the end of May.

As for that Huang guy, he was a couple of weeks premature with exclusivity but he wasn't totally wrong. The same again will do nicely.

Easy when you take what other people say and then pass it off as your own information whilst playing a racist caricature.

It looks like I'm running out of time......

Got to say NDAs are very effective when you have serious people involved and not chancers like William Storey.

What's the betting we'll all still be waiting by the time the new season's fixtures are released?

[WestYorksRoyal]

Another bet. Will any reputable journalist report it before it's formally announced? I'm going no. They seem to have it under wraps.

[Royal_jimmy]

Happy to wait a bit longer if it means the EFL properly scrutinize the buyers. We can't afford another crap owner
