Aside from the management buy-out offer led by Gala Bingo managing director Simon Wykes, media reports indicate that the Gauselmann Group in Germany is interested, along with private equity firms Bridgepoint, Risk Capital Partners and OPCapita.
There has also been unconfirmed speculation that Lorne Weil, erstwhile chied executive of Scientific Games, may be assembling interested bidders with a view to forming an acquisition company targeting the Gala Coral sell-off.
