It means that the FL felt they were not in a position to allow KPMG to sell the GS in the second sale. Which means the conditional offer was irrelevant.
I can understand them not wanting to do before having sight of the sale documents, something that couldn't have been done before the actual sale could it? More to the point, why on earth wouldn't the FL have the power to grant any team membership to their own private members club? The only sticking points would be the rules not allowing it, or the decision makers not wanting to. The rule is there to grant membership which only leaves them not yet wanting to. If they wanted to, they could.
