Is he British based ?

Its a British based buyer 

"The Ulker family have substantial assets and significant investments already in the UK"

News article from when he was interested in Newcastle.

Does this make it technically correct he's UK 'based' ?

Were you reluctant to sign up

Sorry, I don't get you?

What with the NDAs in place what would be the consequences of the bidder being identified before the bid is completed, even if indirect and “innnocent” please?

If Ulker wanted a club he could have any outside the top 6 in PL.

I would have thought British based  would depend on being resident in or domiciled in the UK ? Howard ...

Yes, at a premium... whereas he could get us at fraction and take us back there!?

I see you're not denying it though haha 😉 

Just a thought.

Don’t get too caught up on the word ‘bidder’. It could be that a member of a consortium has a stake in another club, he may be trying to sell that stake and doesn’t want the price to drop. That sale could be contingent on the funds.

We are currently outside the top 6 of PL 😉

Yes resident or tax domiciled.

It would cost more to get us to the Top 6 than it would to acquire Southampton.

Southampton not top 6 though, would cost  fortune to get them there also.

Yes, and only he knows his theory for wanting us.. maybe he liked Akin Bulent and Tuncay. Who knows... but all signs point to it being him.

We have the stadium, the history and infrastructure... wouldn't take a massive amount to get us back to the Premiership, a dam site less than it would cost him to buy Southampton.

Come on H Dogg, confirm or deny?

which again means Ulker fits the bill...

Will you please stop badgering him

Nothing Howard has told us so far leads me to believe he knows who the bidder is

And I for one would prefer not to jeopardise owt

He’s not UK based & doesn’t hold a stake in a club.

Sorry, certainly not intending to badger Howard or put him under any pressure... I have enjoyed his insights.

Ulker is just a hunch based on what I have seen, read and put together in my own mind... but I could be way off track.

He might want the Jaffa cake contract in our club kiosks. 😂

This is torture Howard, is the deal still progressing well? Nixon suggesting Ken keeps changing his demands, I know I shouldn't listen but everyone is desperate for this to go through. 

I am Alan Nixon

Considering Nixon doesn’t even know who the buyers are, it’s difficult to see how he would get any information. 

Its progressing fine and will happen. 

Of course Ken is playing the game a bit, but wouldn’t we all?

I'm not that bothered about knowing who it is, I just want a good deal for the club to be done soon 

Murat Ulker is based in Turkey and doesn't have a stake in another football club.

Nothing to see here, move on.

Shame though, because he's minted to the max.
