Until I hear a Pat Murphy report starting, "It's my understanding..." then I won't start to get excited.
Hope you're listening to 5Live at the moment coz he's on shortly.

According to Murphy it's a single Chinese business man. And sold for just 60 million.

£60m which if true is an amazing gesture by Lerner.

Trust your instincts Ron because it looks like we will be bought by someone with no flaming money!

Where has this 'No money' guff appeared from? I may have missed it but I don't recall Murphy saying we're being bought by a homeless chinaman.

As long as he doesn't do dodgy hair cuts we might have some hope.
