It is the statement that was made earlier in the week but there is an extra line that seems to put an intended timescale on the takeover.

Someone managed to get the detail up before the statement was removed.

Says November, but not the year.

How long to keep going back to the person who keeps saying "come back tomorrow"? Sick of this. Feels like we're just being strung along. GFH don't sound too clever looking at their history and being private equity firm all they're going to want is to take a punt on us, get us back into the premiership and then sell us on. Who's really going to own the club in the longer term and build for a sustainable future I wonder.

As i am led to believe, the FL approved this 4 days ago??? Who is stalling then?
Let me guess - a fat fuk in Monaco, now the USA bid has been officially made and is worth double the current bid?

Maybe the US bid is better for Ken and better for us.

I'm sure Bates will act in the best interests of the club, as ever.

In the meantime though if you check the public LUFCtv update redbumburn bigs up dawson, think he was hinting at a call up to the first team.

I know it's our old ' friend ' Mr Castle's again but even so, I have lost all confidence in GFH being the right people to take over our club !! They have had ample time to get this damn thing done !!!

@DuncanCastles: Have been told that GFH Capital missed another deadline to complete an acquisition of Leeds United on Monday. #LUFC http://t.co/6Kp9jrFR
