The identities of the people behind the deal remain a closely guarded secret, and Nathaniel said they wanted to remain anonymous until their bid is accepted.

Can a bid be accepted from an anonymous party? Aren't there premier league rules about club owners being upstanding citizens.

Likely means secret for the public not for the contractual parties tbh. Not that Ashley would care as long as he sees the real money though...

That is seperate to the business transaction and so is perfectly fine. The 'fit and proper' test comes after, not that it appears to be too difficult to pass.

By law, you have to check out the parties involved as part of the Proceeds of Crime Act. So notwithstanding the fit and proper persons test, the club would have to have made some efforts to ensure that the funds have not come from a dubious source.

I'm sure that the club know who the interested parties are, they're just not making it public at the minute for when it all goes tits up.
