Re-assuring news....a deal done as soon as possible...how much longer ?

Where it leaves our club should the deal fall through god only knows as the investors have lent LU millions...figures ranging between £2m & £6m i'm hearing :duno:

GFH think of it as a loan, Kuddly says it's a payment to show intent to purchase, and for exclusivity. Fine if the TOMA goes through, wait for the legal arguments if it doesn't!

Such a shame to see 20,000 empty seats at my second home :(

I thought proof of sufficient funds was the first thing that Bates said he was happy with and the first thing he would check when someone approached the club with investment? :duno:

Don't know who raised this as an issue, but from Sky:

"The Gulf-based group has also dismissed reports that the takeover will be complicated by Sharia law because of the availability of gambling facilities and alcohol at Elland Road."

There was a report by the infamous Duncan Castles that suggested that Shari'ah law would object to us selling alcohol in the ground and being associated with betting firms.

All nonsense - does anyone believe you can't get a drink or place a bet at the Etihad?

It was originally in one of the Gulf newspapers - somebody posted a link on here (about 2 weeks ago I think), can't be bothered looking for it because it seemed bilge at the time.
