If they hold all the aces then they are playing a very bad hand imo. Season starts in 5 days time & transfer window shuts in 10 days time. Roland is selling players for peanuts & as it stands our front line on Saturday will be a player loaned out last season & the other a youngster who hasn't scored a league goal in his career.

Well, let me help. One has fucked up the club for four years and the others bought a scarf in the shop.

No idea who this new interest is from but I've decided they are worse than Duchatelet.
They must have known the club is for sale for ages but have only just shown interest so not really committed.
They have not proved they have got any money either so most likely haven't got any.
I have said it before, if I was looking at a long term project, with an investment of say £200 over 5 years, I would value the current playing squad at zero. That was before we sold konsa.
If the assuies were happy to wait, as they were in it for the long hall, I assume they feel the same. I would also like to think they have an ex manager, scout or agent on a retainer who has a number of transfers lined up to go on completion?
But saying all that I wouldn't buy a destressed football club less than 2 months before the start of the season. This should have been done in May or not until December.

Yes, and you wonder if the Aussies haven't accidentally done a lot of the legal work for them? And one thing about the Aussies is that theirs is a plan based on sporting interest, it remains to be seen what the new bidders are after.

New unknown owners out.
Leaving sarcasm aside - why do you think it's so strange that people are asking questions or doubting the Aussies, considering how bad the last 2 sets of owners have been?

If Roland allows them to.
If Duchatelet thinks either group will pay him more than the Aussies he'll hang around longer in the hope of a few million extra. Two birds in the bush worth more than the bird in hand with him and has been for over a year.
This group has probably been around for some time, but might have been freshened up with a new backer. I agree that that could well be why the Aussies haven't completed- because Duchatelet is hoping for a higher bid. Absolute disgrace if true, and whoever is behind it should hang their head in shame.

So are you saying it definitely is Duchatelet that’s the delay ?

My point being, other than RD nicking a few 100k in transfers and a weakened squad and irritation of the fanbase, the Aussies suffer no further pain whilst at the same time saving £1m per month running costs. Add to that the 7m director loans if they are digging their heels in). That really is a massive financial saving, money that can be spent on rebuilding everything RD has ruined
The directors loans have been discussed as an issue for the last few weeks and its agreed they wouldn't suddenly become an issue for the aussies after dd, as they are public knowledge.
It was rumoured that a lease deal for the stadium/training ground was on the table.
It was stated clearly, by the club and them selves, that the aussies want to buy lock stock and barrel.
So....... The "other bid" want to buy the club and lease the ground? Therefore need clear title?
Firmly believe the deal is dead, why takeover this close to the season with no chance to shape the squad? Save £4m in running costs and do a deal nearer Christmas
Why takeover at Christmas, takeover late next summer and save another £8m.
Perhaps, that's the plan. They've realised that if they never take over they can save between £35M & £60M over the next 5 years.
