It's rumoured Stagecoach were once interested in buying GHA. Although, with Stagecoach having moved in to the Chester area and GHA serving Greater Manchester I think if Stagecoach were to acquire GHA they would be forced to sell off part of the operations.

GHA do operate some services which Arriva used to operate but lost interest in because they weren't making enough money (like the 82 route.)

While First seem to be scaling back bus operations rather than expanding.

But then the likes of Rotala, Centrebus, Transdev, Wellglade Group may be interested? Or a joint venture between two companies?
