First of all I would like to reply to SWFC13 yesterday who apparently thinks I have never bought a house. SWFC13 in the last 20 years I have sold 7 houses so I know it takes between 10-12 weeks usually, it all depends on the chain, there is no chain at Wednesday and I will say to you HAVE YOU EVER BOUGHT A FOOTBALL CLUB - probably not (just gassing I take it) I have been supporting Wednesday for fifty years so no young kid.
As for the take over the general consensus of opinion on the sites and other people is that this deal is dead and buried, something I didn't want. And as far as I am concerned it's still MM's fault if this deal falls through, if you want to buy a house (and I have experience) you have to prove you have the mortgage in place, I don't think this guy has anything in place (money)and that if that is the case that it is MM's fault. This take over has dragged on and it doesn't feel right me! And lastly if Gray doesn't kick MM and get some funds and players he doesn't deserve to be in charge, Gray needs to get some bottle. And for the people who say in 'MM we trust' get real 15.30

Its surprising that a 50 year old feels the need to justify himself, on here, with his life story.
many people believe in mm and they are entitled to their own opinion.

Sorry for making an assumption that you hadn't bought a house, it seemed by your lack of patience that you hadn't. However by saying it takes 10-12 weeks you seem to have validated my point. As you are correct I have neither bought or sold a football club, but I assume that a business as complex as a football club will take a lot more paperwork and time to buy than a house even without a chain. I bought a house with no chain and that took nearly 4 months just because of one glitch in the paperwork. The paperwork for a house has to go between two parties with a solicitor each inbetween yet the majority of the paperwork for a football club has to go between at least three parties with teams of lawyers inbetween. If HM didn't have any money in place why have we not found this out already. What has MM to gain by dragging this out, I doubt he would do something like this just to gain a few extra pounds from ticket sales. I think people are losing patience as it seems to have gone on a lot longer than other takeovers, but most takeovers are announced to the press a lot later in the process. If the French press hadn't tried to leak the story to further try and disgrace HM then we would probably be only finding out about this now, although then we would have had lots of people on here annoyed that we had made no signings. Also if the takeover has failed then why did HM sponsor us in what was reported to be a very financially significant deal for the club. Makes no sense to me to pump money into a club for no return apart from maybe a few extra tourists to your country a year. If I am wrong about the takeover I am man enough to say so if the time comes but for now I have seen more positives than negatives about it so will stick with my optomistic approach that it will happen but will be a little longer coming, and if that makes me an over optomistic dreamer in some peoples eyes I don't really care.

LMN I was replying to a comment that was left which I have replied too, that is my perogative. As for your 50 year old comment, I hope that's not an ageist dig
