The cynic in me thinks that Nixon has probably known info this for weeks and that Bain has asked him to release it now to deflect all the anger about getting relegated.

This might mean that the group is no closer to succeeding. Hopefully that is not right and the relegation has clarified the price.

The timing of the story is a strange one. In some ways it makes no sense to push any takeover through until the season is finished and the new owners can't be associated with that failing. There's also the contracts of several players that expire on June 30th which could be a significant date.

I think so. Gone very quiet though.

Probably legal issues etc being sorted behind the scenes.

Something must be close for it to be ‘news’, hopefully it happens in time to get money in for transfers.

I wouldn't have thought that the players out of contract would make a difference to anything mind. I can't think of a scenario where any would be retained.

This bloke is bad news believe me. He got out of Leeds when they were falling apart and he worked with Ridsdale ffs.
Dodgy character who lives in Harrogate and is banned from all the pubs in Harrogate for some reason apparently. His involvement is not good news.

Why take over before then and have to pay them until June 30th?
All about the pennies.
