Hi Eds, what will be the next step in the sale be after the soft deadline today?

And when will we likely learn more about the parties that have bid.

Thank you in advance.

{Ed002's Note - The process is as I have previously explained - the bankers will sift through any bids made and decide if any are worthy of recommendation, and if they are they will make a recommendation to the owners. I have already explained who the potential bidders are.}

Thanks Ed002, appologies i must have missed that one.

{Ed002's Note - No problem. If there is not an acceptable offer they will go through the process again.}

Hopefully this is as quick as the purchase of Jadon Sancho was.

Hi Ed, with the deadline past (soft deadline), we've got public word of INEOS and Qatar. Is there any way to know if any of the other groups have bid - or any idea if other names you listed as interested followed through?

{Ed002's Note - Others may yet bid.}

Thanks Ed! Hopefully more competition and some of of those US groups just to ensure we get the best options.

Im just hoping the Glazers are willing to move on their valuation.

I have a terrible feeling we will be stuck with them because of their greed in wanting so much and won't accept any of the bids.

They have to sell, they just want as much as they can get. They will be hoping to create a bidding war.
