It's done.

"The takeover has been approved by the EFL, with exchange and completion to take place next week."

For anyone who was worried about that side of things.

Having my first beer of 2024 now to celebrate.

I knew once it got to 200 pages they’d sign the papers!

I don’t want to get too carried away given no one really knows anything about these owners, but I’m damn happy to be rid of Lai.

Thanks all we can now shut down this thread. Ducks head. Lol

It seems to have been dragging on for so very long that it almost started to become folklore, but I'm absolutely delighted that it's come to fruition and we can finally put the Lai nightmare behind us. I feel confident that Shilen Patel will a likeable owner/Chairman who will have the Club's and the fans' interest at heart or, at the very least, fully appreciates that success for the Club means success for the Patels and their co-investors (assuming there are some).

Thanks also to all the genuine ITKers who have taken a lot of unwarranted stick over the past few months. Sticking your head above the parapet knowing what's likely to happen is both commendable and appreciated.

If we look at how long it has taken Ineos to affirm their investment in United then this has not been an inordinate amount of time. 
Took as long as it was told to me in December 23.

This has been brilliantly done, the NDA shave held up and I thought we would have to wait for EFL to sanction it but all done well done to all involved Especially Shilen Patel, Miles Carlos and Hinchcliffe for getting this over the line.

I can't quite believe it's real. I'm finding difficult not to blub tbh.
