seems to be 3 running on this so my flawed logic says to solve that start another one!
My understanding is;
MJ has bid - it was first bid on the table.
others have added that he has lost his investor.
MLT bid is either just in or expected shortly - my understanding is this group is the favorite.
There are two overseas groups who have formally notified Fry of intention to bid.
One is canadian with no local connections.
I do not know how these fit in with groups spoken about by other posters such as Weston and Derry and the new posters.
Can I suggest this as single thread to summarise what is known and comment on all bidders?
