"There are three or four parties interested - I want the deal done quickly. The Season kicks off a week on Saturday and I don't know if we would want to still be negotiating past then"

Wouldn't it be nice to know, would also leave roughly 3 weeks until window closes

Sounds positive! Lets just hope that 1 of these parties contains a Billionaire that wants to throw some cash around and have a real life game of footy Manager....

Thought we were in the endgame but looks like the opening gambit instead

3 or 4 parties interested? I'd assume he's talking us up a bit to drive the price up. Surely we don't have anymore than two parties interested. The Mittals and Fernandes.

Probably nothing to do with QPR and a statement about his daughter's house-warming party and whether The Black Eyed Peas would consider doing another gig on the patio for a £1.000.000.

The timing really stinks.

What is Neil supposed to do? Sign up DJ and Punch quickly, or wait to see if the new owners give him 15 mill so he can bid for the likes of Defoe or Walker?

But why should Bernie care, it's just business. Geriatric (unt.

The only reasonable thing he's said recently!
