    My understanding is that's it is new Aussies with a younger bloke being the main money but still linked to the same original bid via Murphy.

    My own view is that Duchatelet is still a twat and will dick around with this and any other potential buyers.

    White is most likely being fed his info from Roland or his stooges.

    There is no 48 or 72 deadline and White never said there was.

    Joel Macdonald?
    In February 2018 MacDonald was named defendant along with his company GetSwift in a A$300M class action lodged in the Federal Court of Australia for failing to disclose price sensitive information to the public. Shares in his company GetSwift suffered a 67% loss in the two days after the action was announced.[14] The company is contesting the accusation and has separately accused Squire Patton Boggs of overstating the claim to A$300M.[15]

    In January 2018 while CEO of GetSwift, Macdonald was accused of misleading the market by overstating revenue forecasts the public and failing to disclose the loss of what GetSwift claimed were not materially significant contracts.[9][10] Macdonald's company GetSwift requested to enter into a voluntary Trading Halt[11] while they responded to questions by the Australian Securities Exchange.[5][12] This is the second time Macdonald's company has been suspended from trade, after the Australian Securities Exchange issued a trading halt and requested more information after the company announced a deal with Amazon.[13]

    I heard the guy was slightly older then 34, but don't have a name.
    His parents must have called him something?
    Might be the lad off Bird Box and if it is, his old blindfold might come in handy if he's intending to go to games

    fwiw, my take on it all.

    JW is being fed stories & we are no nearer being sold than we were last February. Bowyers soundbites in the ES are just the same (almost identical) to that of Gobbinson last march before he walked. Until any of the ex-directors come on here & say that they have agreed a settlement (and we know at least 1 does post updates to that fact) and the EFL have seen proof of funds AND had their FAPT passed then best not think about it. The January transfer window will come & go, we will still be stuck with RD & then talk will be of "when which division we will be in next season is known"...........

    As for @jimmyseed's tweet re Gerald Murphy..........same old same old "all down to NDA's I'm afraid old chap - cant say anymore". What a load of crap. LDV regularly spouts drivel such as "The Aussies are still in" or "there are 5 groups including the brits" so GM wouldn't be breaking any NDA to just say wtf is happening.

    Please correct me if you know, but surely the buyers (Aussies?), have to submit the papers to EFL, unless they have already done this, it could take weeks

    This stuff about proof of funds. It's possible that Roland/his representatives have seen proof of funds but the EFL haven't yet....

    Am I alone in thinking all of this is just an elaborate way for Roland to create a scenario whereby he can say in February the reason he did not invest in the team during the window was his expectation of an imminent sale, with new owners funding the necessary strengthening?

    Remember, Roland thinks he has a superior intellect, and we (like all football fans in his estimation) are thick as pigshit.
