The identity of the other two investors is unknown.   There had been speculation that one might be active football investor Keith Harris who recently made an unsuccessful bid for Portsmouth.  However, he could be simply advising one of the bidders.

Adminstrator Paul Appleton said, ‘I will obviously now take time to consider these bids before contacting the bidders with my final decision on a preferred purchaser. As part of this process, there will be discussions with the Football League.’
