I would think that, if a deal is bubbling, there would be some sort of public statement by now. The reason being that an exclusivity/lookout period is generally needed to allow both sides to do due diligence. This would give a buyer first refusal for that period to prevent gazumping and time-wasting. A substantial cash deposit might also be demanded before the books are opened.

Paul : yes that would be the brother's aim if all is ironed out before.
Big wolf : don't have a clue he is ceo of a record company and supposedly a wolves born fan . It's supposedly a London team but my source wouldn't go any further in to it than that .
Deepthroat: I gather it'd all more complicated than that but the club would only grant exclusivity once both parties are happy with the deal in place . Like I said I am only passing on the info I have been given sometimes it's given to me a bit vague but that's just how it is . I trust my source been right more than wrong.

Steve Barnett is a multi millionaire CEO and chairman of Capitol records ( the second largest on the planet) and has made a career out of taking smaller record companies and making them huge ( Epic, Colombia, etc. ) . He has a business philosophy of 'speculate to accumulate' and a track record of attracting the worlds top artists in order to create a snowball effect with other top names following suit. He is very very successful at building businesses and was born in Wolverhampton.
Glenn Hughes was in the band Deep Purple and has worked with Steve Barnett for decades. Glenn is s long time friend of Robert Plant and was born in Cannock.
This is a genuine attempt to take control of the club but Morgan wants to retain a % of the club but I'm not sure how much.
This is not the first time this group have contacted Morgan but it has accelerated since he threw his dummy out the pram. Expect news next month either way.
