Didn't we all wanted Jim at some point? Honestly I'm okay with either of these 2 right now.

I suppose there is no legal absolutes here, but hadn't deadline for bids passed a long time ago?

Just hope it’s sorted one way or another soon. The quicker we can start negotiating with prospective signings the better. Who knows how many players out there will choose their next destination before we’ve even talked to them if this drags on any longer.

I wanted Ratcliffe before, but I started to fell in love with Boehly. 

Now I don't know what to choose 😥

There's been talk for ages of mystery bidders, etc so I get the feeling that perhaps their interest has been noted for quite some time and maybe to be kept informed of the process. 

I suppose in this situation the club and Raine would be fools to not listen to such a serious offer being put on the table, despite it being after unofficial deadlines, etc.

I’m confident that Boehly’s group will be great for us initially. He’ll be very keen to keep us at the top and impress the supporters.

The hope of course is that he does that for years to come.

I do a little investing and things like this aren't really an issue, especially for individuals like Ratcliffe whose investments are in established industries that aren't on the brink of extinction. Firstly, he isn't going to sell his shares, so all he has currently is a paper loss, secondly within five years' he will either be richer than he is now or back to his peak. 

People like Ratcliffe don't panic in such situations and they especially do not sell in such situations. 

It is a little like saying any investor when Covid hit was 50% less rich than they were the month before. Most people who where in that boat, are still richer than they were before the Covid crash. 

I mean, just look at that graph, even with the current volatility he is still almost 10x richer than he was at the start of 2016. That is an insane amount of growth.
