Would any parties interested in taking over possibly find it cheaper and easier ? Are the rules of ownership in the EFL as stringent as the EPL ? ..... look to Sheff Utd as an example . Prince Abdullah purchased those while in the EFL and he is Saudi royalty . Hopefully the lawyers can show that the PIF is seperate from MBS .
Even if the prospective buyers are still interested, the club's not even settled on the make up of the arbitration panel so no further forward than October of last year. The Efl is easier than the Premier League in regards to being taken over but then would still have to satisfy the Premier League upon the assumed return to the top flight. There's no way PIF are paying £350 million for a Championship club and I doubt Ashley would sell for say £200 million.
