We are up for sale (Rumour)

CharltonByBlood

Received this info from a member of staff at CAFC:

"Work has completely stopped at training ground and people who no one knows are in and out constantly at the training ground. Looks to me like he is selling up and that's the general feeling around the place"

Don't shoot the messenger. Take from it what you will.

Any idea who might be leading the Takeover?

Didn't get told we was sold, its more along the lines that he is looking to sell.

Another glimmer of hope following the Paul Elliot story. Thanks for posting.

golfaddick

when you mean "work" do you mean the construction of the new buildings or the
players training, because I thought the players stopped training around November/.......

Shay Given?

I reckon it's just in advance of some new billboards being delivered.

Roland?

Estate agents?

I understand the proposed computer system upgrade planned for the close season has also been shelved.

If we are up for sale then why has this Lennie Lawrence thing being brought up? It wouldn't make sense to appoint a DoF if you want to sell the club. I don't really understand all of this.

If Roland is on the edge please let's make sure we push him over it

Its a plan to disrupt the Beach Party this Saturday. Come Sunday it will all be off and Roland remains in charge.

I don't care if there is any truth in this or not. I want to believe it and will cling to rumours like these like a drowning man does to a lifebuoy.

If you renewed I don't hold out much hope of your ticket arriving before the first home game then

Agreed. And let's hope it's a hard landing for him.

There is also the possibility that we may be relegated and the business needs to rethink its finances

I doubt RD would scrap the work on the training ground due to relegation, as that is all he really cares about.

MuttleyCAFC

He might not want to sink any more money into it if he is selling. But I would imagine contracts would have been signed if work is taking place, and you can't just switch them on and off - so it doesn't really make sense.

Someone will be along soon with that "It's happening" GIF.

Is he wearing the new home kit?

Interesting times

let's hope it is buyers going through due diligence and not administrators.

Thanks for the heads up @CharltonByBlood

May be he is involved with whoever is interested in buying us .

Cheers Henners - thanks for the optimism. When it's on KPMGs website, and all that....

bigstemarra

Thanks for that CBB - I so hope that is what is happening.

I want to believe!

You mischievous little devil, Henners!

I'm assuming the bills have been paid so if it were to be administrators it would be voluntary. RD would then kiss goodbye to his loans (as would RM).

That's good news, as I can't imagine they'd be competent enough to get that done by the start of next season.
