    Pontius Pilate offered the mob the chance to reprieve on of the three man awaiting crucifixion.

    They called for Barabbas, rather than Jesus, so he was saved.

    Now, if you've read Holy Blood and Holy Grail.....
  • I suppose Taylor can be signed as it's a free and in theory RD won't be here to pay his contract.

    Frees aren't really free though. Bigger signing on fee, agent fee and assume some other nominal admin costs. There must be some budget available to keep things ticking over until the takeover is decided one way or another. I certainly can't imagine there is a budget to match Bowyer's ambitions though.

    Nothing happens. Nobody comes, nobody goes, it's awful.

    The club are off to Portugal for a training camp - Something happened to earn that sign off.

    Lyle Taylor has come in - Someone authorised his purchase.
    Harry Lennon and several others have gone out - Someone authorised his sale

    I can't help but hope that these moves are being orchestrated by someone intending to buy the club...

    I don't care who you are
    Where you're from
    What you did
    As long as you buy CAFC

    Bowyer does have a budget. Yes Taylor would have to be signed off but at present the departures of Konsa, Kashi and Lennon plus the wages of the loans are being saved and that money is what Bowyer has to play with. At present he’s in credit. I’m not saying that he will have all that wages money available but even RD is not stupid enough to think you can let 9 players leave and not replace at least some.



    Remember this is the same man that:

    - thought Polish Pete and Reza were adequate replacements for Yann
    - appointed Katrien Meire
    - paid Roger Johnson's wages on 2 separate occasions
    - thinks {...} is part of the English Language
    - made a teenager/early 20's man child Charlton's 'chief scout'/ head of the network scouting team
    - Paid money for Bergdich
    - thought Charlton fans wanted the club to fail because we protested about HE was running the club

    have i missed anything?

    Regardless, the man has history with Stupid decisions
    Pissed money up the wall. He’s spent good money but mostly on dross.

    I'd bet money that he doesn't even know who Johnson and Bergdich are

  • I am going for comical, I cannot see Usmanvov being anywhere near this deal.

    I'm talking about Keith Harris.
    I know nothing about Usmanov.
    Less likely usmanov more likely Orville

    Hearing that new investor may be in place.
    Funding for 5 year plan has been key, as they always said.
    Never been a problem with buying the club. Funding had to be arranged for 5 year plan.
    Hence investor had to be in place.
    If investor was needed just to buy the club then we would indeed have problems as some have said.

    In place as in agreed to be involved or they did that ages ago and have passed EFL approval and so actually good to go? I imagine the former.

    "In three seasons with Palace, Bryan scored 104 goals from 71 appearances in all competitions"

    Not a bad record!

    On the overseas trip, RD limited the budget to £20k, which is why they struggled with it. They either managed to find a way of doing it for £20k or the budget went up.

    There is a (reasonable) view that Robinson wasted money last year going to Ireland twice.

    Suppose if we only have 9 players it won't be too expensive
    They’re top and tailing in the twin rooms too so they’ve only needed to book 3-rooms to squeeze everybody who is still at the club in
