Aye, I'm confident that things are happening, but not sure where people are getting Friday from. It's likely been said as a kind of "could even be done by Friday" thing, but that would make it the earliest realistic time that something might be sorted by. In reality we all know these things can drag on and on.
Additionally, I don't even think the buyer would be in a rush. By this stage we'd pretty much need to go with the Jones / Parkinson recruitment, especially with the wage cap issue still to be decided, so it's not like they need a completion date to tie in with the transfer window. There's also the likelihood that the longer things go on, the more Donald might be inclined to make concessions. Looking at the redundancies etc it's pretty obvious he can't sustain us in this league, particularly in this landscape. They might be apart on valuations, but the longer it goes the more likely Donald is to bend.
