It seems Dr.X is suggesting that June 15th is D.day.

further delay's due to board members from the football league being on a jolly to Portugal for their 'annual summit' so they are too busy to ratify the deal.

Don't worry about us boys, just enjoy the fucking sunshine !!!

I don't know what qualifies a friend to be savoury. 

When you lick them they taste more salty than sugary.
Did anyone lick Dr X?

Well this is starting to take the piss now. They've had weeks and weeks to check their shit out, they know by now what the score is, it doesn't need them to be anywhere, the job should already have been done, he either passes the test or doesn't it doesn't require them to be at home at the FA HQ to ratify it, what are they fucking playing at?

We all want it ratified quickly for the benefit of the club, so we can start our dealings, but let's not forget it's in our benefit if they are going over it thoroughly (although it's equally possible they are just lazy or don't have the number of staff on it).

Or they are looking for the 80 companies he owns and have only found 1 so far.

Gregg Evans and the Daily Mail reporter have both stated that he has around £500 million in English accounts, I'm hoping it's just the people Xia associates himself with that are dodgy (Samuelson et al) rather than the man himself.

I'm pretty sure Gregg Evans just copied the Daily Mail bloke's homework.

That's not part of the fit & proper test though is it? Though apparently they have been shown that £500 million has been reserved for use with Aston Villa.

Maybe the negotiators are quibbling over their cut (via a brown paper bag)?

It sounds s lot to just have sitting in a bank account waiting to invest in a Champoinship football club.

"Xia has filed all the necessary paperwork and that the leagues have seen proof of over £500m in bank accounts set up in England."

OK, maybe not all reserved for Aston Villa but it should be. IMO.
