Who would have thought we would be in this position, June 10th hafiz mammadov reportedly worth over several hundred million to take over Sheffield Wednesday, three days to go and we are selling a player so we have funds to buy other players, brilliant.

The truth is we've sold a player who lots of fans have mixed feelings about, and who was not available through most of our successful times last season.
If we sold him next week after the R-word has been announced nobody would bat an eyelid.
The crucial thing that is overlooked is the bid was on the table, the best time to sell is when you have somebody who wants to buy. And if we have players lined up who we might lose if we don't do the biz now surely it makes good sense to get it done.

Once the announcement came out about the takeover and that they were still in the early stages of the takeover I kind of guessed we would still be waiting till at least the middle of august if we got lucky, and more likely the end of it, till the takeover got completely sorted. The fact that the announcement on June 10th came about because the french press were about to leak the story so HM and MM thought to make it public themselves. If they had had the choice they would have waited till at least due diligence had been done before letting us know so it would seem the takeover took a lot less time. So to answer your question, yes I did think we would be in this position at this point. It will happen, yes we may need to get a few loans in to tide us over till the winter window but there will be money to spend at that point.

June 10th is just over 8 weeks ago!
How long would you think is a reasonable time to transfer ownership of a £40million pound + business?
Particularly when that sale has to satisfy not only the necessary requirements set down in law, but also the requirements of an independent regulatory body, the Football League.
The time its taking doesn't concern me at all because surely it will be worth the wait? However long it takes!
I just wish some of our fans would be more patient and understanding of the situation.

No take over, No money, no money been paid to MM for the club. It has NEVER reached the stage to be put in front of the FL.

Mandaric came out and said antonio didn't want to be here so atleast we got something and it wasnt a di canio carbone job where we got a 1 pound or less! we wants pride and passion playin for our team not players with can't be bothered selfish attitudes! mm and hm will have a plan and patience is a virtue for sg and our massive fans! if it was going to die the deal of the takeover surely it would of happend by now!? uto xxx
