Thank fuck

Is there a risk the deal could be in jeopardy if the buyers identity is leaked? 

FFS....how the fuck did any bugger stay awake at this meeting.

How rich are they? Are we talking millionaires or billionaires?

It’s difficult to gauge as it’s all relative to what they want to spend on the club, not the anount in the bank.

Do you know exactly who the bidder is? And how? Or will this also be revealed on completion?

No

Howard sorry if I've missed this when do you expect the sale to be completed ?

Depends who leaked it, unlikely though. 

One thing in Ken’s favour is his ability to abide by an NDA

It's quite tricky banning you from this phone

But not impossible, so if you've nowt to contribute, hush.

I’m sure the successful party will be revealed at an appropriate time.

Why will they leave it that late to complete? Surely they want it done ASAP and not make it go all the way down the the death again! Or that all down to securing deals with unsecured creditors?

Howard, you really have helped me sleep easier at night this last week or so.

Howard why in the film toy story 1 does buzz lightyear pretend to be a toy when humans are around when he actually thinks he’s a space ranger?

It’s partly down to the actual physical time taken to complete and partly down to Ken wishing to remain in control until the very end, just in case he gets a better offer (made more difficult by exclusivity, but hey, this is Ken).

They have to acquire at full value, if they do not then HMRC wouldn’t get paid. The business remains under a WU petition and debts cannot be settled favourably.

I meant the deferred consideration.

Who’s to say that Space Ranger’s aren’t informed to act as toys around humans?

It’s fairly common knowledge that the PBP/Warburton debts were likely to be reviewed/re-negotiated. 

That being said, some of the true value can only be delivered through outright ownership of the assets that are currently charged against the loans.

I am a stickler for political correctness, so let’s re-word to ‘human’.
