[cite]Posted By: Pavo[/cite]Most interesting quote in PP's press briefing yesterday for me was:
"In terms of our recruitment we're behind where we want to be, but some things are taken out of your control as a manager and you have to deal with the hand you're given. We haven't sold anyone, apart Mark Hudson, and although we haven't added as many as we'd like at this stage, it will happen."
IT WILL HAPPEN. Those seem like very positive words to me, not it MAY happen, it WILL happen.
Anyone read Dawning of New Era on the back of the SLP this morning. A matter of days now until it is announced apparantly. We'll see but if it is the case, it will be a welcome boost and so early in the season that we'll have plenty of time to make the most of it if Parky preapres the players and team in the right way.

Was it Fortune who had an absolute banger during the Prem years???
CHARLTON are set to have new owners next week - ending four months of negotiating.
We exclusively revealed in April that the club’s former chief executive Peter Varney was fronting a group of wealthy businessmen looking to buy the Addicks.
And it now looks likely a deal will be rubberstamped within a matter of days. At times the prospect of an agreement being reached has been in real doubt - but negotiations have taken major steps forward in the past couple of weeks.
I wonder where the £30M figure came from and what it means (if anything) - hopefully that's £30M to spend on new players - just don't give it to Dowie!
[cite]Posted By: LargeAddick[/cite]would be massive PR if they could announce it tomorrow and wheel out the new owner at h/t.
I was wondering that but don't know if it would be too much of a distraction for the team. I'm hoping for an announcement after a good win and then we can have a good week in the glow of a win and the Club being stable.
I've heard that the takeover has gone through, unfortunately the news was released at a Bromley Addicks meeting so unfortunately no one's allowed to talk about it.
Well good news if it is true...... However, like DA9 I think the valuation against debt is likely to be a write off, or very little.
Will we ever know the exact amount, I fear not........
The valuation of £50 million always seemed based on optomistic land valuations from a couple of years back. Probably what all the arguing has been about over the past few weeks.
Really feel a new broom is needed to galvanise the club and supporters, despite the major contribution that the chairman has played in the past.
Time for a new 'vision' and one based on sound appreciation of where we are today.

I'll believe it when it's on the O/S (Irving, 2009)
Now you've finally decided to, does this mean you know something?
so the SLP don't really know either.

Question: which player is the poser .....?
