  • I

    @PragueAddick go and ask the person who wrote the SLP article

    The club has said many things all from the mouth of a liar or multiple liars

    I have said on here where I got told the aussies had no money

    It was laughed at because it came from the RD side

    GM told James seed there was still two that needed to sign off

    Now the fact the Aussies are again still being reported to be searching for investors and the deal is in real jeopardy and Keith harris is actively working on resolving

    There are still those that wish to believe a statement from known liars

    Richard Murray could tell me that today is sunday and my name is darren

    I would still check the calendar and my driving licence

    This whole dirty sorry saga has been going on here since October 2017 we are two months from a year

    Instead of asking me where the evidence is to substantiate my claim that they don’t have it or have never had it


    The real question should be prove that they have

    When their own side is taking about still looking for investors 10 months later

    I think my proof has been substantiated






    Roland has screwed this great club to the floor by its balls and will continue to do so

    Two possibly 3 parties have tickled his ego valuation enough for him to believe he is right

    His valuation however absurd you or I may think it is people are looking and biting his hook

    Something never sat right with me about the Aussie bid and I will be honest and happy to be proved wrong about them and we will only know should they have somehow found the funds since harris let out his snitbit

    So from here on in it’s not me having to justify my posts mine have been proven right

    It’s for the Aussies to put up or shut up stay or walk simple as

    But all the time they are hanging around without completing it’s a black cloud not a silver lines one

    Do you or do you not concede that Andrew Muir has the wherewithal to purchase the club if he so wished.....either as an individual or by raising his stake in the consortium?
    I have answered that question so many times on here

    One of their investors has a personal wealth to buy us on his own but chooses not too

    We are not talking about Andrew Muir as a single entity we are talking about a consortium he is part of and right now we don’t know if he alone is holding is 10% 50% 85% of that consortium

    I thought he has stated that he wants it to be a consortium of equals i.e. equal financial input from each investor?

    Yes he does but so what ?

    There are thousands of people in this world that have the wherewithal to purchase the club but are not going to.
    The Queen has the wherewithal, but there is no relevance unless they wish to use those funds to buy Charlton Athletic and up to now Andrew Muir has made it quite clear that he does not want a majority stake.

    Exactly this.
    The more investors needed the more complicated it becomes.
    I think he has to up his own percentage to around 50% to make it easier to raise the necessary funds.
    If not then this will just keep dragging on until it collapses imo.
  • There has to be a majority share holder to have the casting vote equal shares is a mine field imo

  • edited August 2018

    I have to apologise to @nth london addick to the extent that I asserted he did not share with me privately his sources, he did tell me a fair bit back in June, and quite reasonably he would not have wanted to say more in public. But those sources have not been used elsewhere to the best of my knowledge. They were the result of coincidences that sometimes happen.

    That said, I'm still concerned that he is making suppositions about the state of play rather than being able to be sure enough to assert that "the Aussies don't have the money" and that's the subject of a further private discussion.

    Separately, to ward off the rather tiresome insinuations I see surfacing here again, I would like to mention that neither I nor any of my close Charlton buddies have had any private conversation with Richard Murray since early January.

    https://www.castrust.org/2018/06/richard-murray-two-parties-still-negotiating/

    I think you are overlooking this, although accept you would dispute that being a private conversation since there was a report. However, Murray is just one source for information among many. It's not nearly good enough to think the multiple stories out there are mainly or wholly sourced from him. I really don't see why De Turck would hold a meeting so he can tells lies to the FF, for example. As per the credit card payments disclosure, he appears more naive than calculating.

  • I am not sure that people are reading properly what NLA is saying; and without an ounce of insider knowledge; I think his conclusion is right. It is possible that everyone in the consortium can afford to buy the club on their own, Muir certainly but they are not prepared to and want to share the financial burden amongst a range of people.

    I can afford to by a mint E-Type Jag if i sold my house and divorced the wife but I am not prepared to do that!

    There is a relevance because the club is one of the central attractions of The Royal Borough of Greenwich and the royals are sitting-by idly whilst it stagnates. Come on Liz, get your finger out and get this sale sorted.

    I can afford to by a mint E-Type Jag if i sold my house and divorced the wife but I am not prepared to do that!

    Highly unlikely given what I was told.
    I had forgotten that you had approached them to see what the buy in was

    There was another Alarm bell moment for all of us , we had heard of their interest and some were even believing that they were ready to pounce at that point yet they were just as far away potentially as they are today

    @PragueAddick go and ask the person who wrote the SLP article

    The club has said many things all from the mouth of a liar or multiple liars

    I have said on here where I got told the aussies had no money

    It was laughed at because it came from the RD side

    GM told James seed there was still two that needed to sign off

    Now the fact the Aussies are again still being reported to be searching for investors and the deal is in real jeopardy and Keith harris is actively working on resolving

    There are still those that wish to believe a statement from known liars

    Richard Murray could tell me that today is sunday and my name is darren

    I would still check the calendar and my driving licence

    This whole dirty sorry saga has been going on here since October 2017 we are two months from a year

    Instead of asking me where the evidence is to substantiate my claim that they don’t have it or have never had it


    The real question should be prove that they have

    When their own side is taking about still looking for investors 10 months later

    I think my proof has been substantiated






    Roland has screwed this great club to the floor by its balls and will continue to do so

    Two possibly 3 parties have tickled his ego valuation enough for him to believe he is right

    His valuation however absurd you or I may think it is people are looking and biting his hook

    Something never sat right with me about the Aussie bid and I will be honest and happy to be proved wrong about them and we will only know should they have somehow found the funds since harris let out his snitbit

    So from here on in it’s not me having to justify my posts mine have been proven right

    It’s for the Aussies to put up or shut up stay or walk simple as

    But all the time they are hanging around without completing it’s a black cloud not a silver lines one

    Do you or do you not concede that Andrew Muir has the wherewithal to purchase the club if he so wished.....either as an individual or by raising his stake in the consortium?
    I have answered that question so many times on here

    One of their investors has a personal wealth to buy us on his own but chooses not too

    We are not talking about Andrew Muir as a single entity we are talking about a consortium he is part of and right now we don’t know if he alone is holding is 10% 50% 85% of that consortium

    I thought he has stated that he wants it to be a consortium of equals i.e. equal financial input from each investor?
    Which is in need of further investigation then because if he only wants the same as for example 10 others then this consortium is doomed to fail
    Sorry, that doesn’t make sense.

    What do you mean ‘wants the same’?

    There could be five investors all putting in £30m.
    There could be 30 putting in a mil

    Exactly this.
    The more investors needed the more complicated it becomes.
    I think he has to up his own percentage to around 50% to make it easier to raise the necessary funds.
    If not then this will just keep dragging on until it collapses imo.
    Or exactly not this.
  • It does make sense that the Aussie Consultium have to get their finances and commitment in place before signing on the dotted line. The commitment of each investor is crucial and would need to include the risk of further injection of cash should the 5 year plan to the promise land not be reached. Unless investors have the option to walk accepting the loss of £Xm? If this is the case then those remaining investors would have to up their ante and/or recruit further investors. The 5 year plan is one of the complexities of this takeover as it’s the major selling point. No wonder why it’s dragging on.

    There could be five investors all putting in £30m.
    There could be 30 putting in a mil


    Comments like that don't help.
    But that’s the whole point we do not know just how many or how few we do not know their intentions at all

    All we know is that in more than a yr they haven’t raised the relevant funds to invest according to their own deal broker

    So it could well be as complex as 30 loan investors

    Highly doubtful but still possible

    There’s got to be more to the failure to complete so far other than Director loans there just has to be

    And harris has now publicly stated what that issue is
  • Its dragging on because no one is willing to pay £47mn, that's the agreed price of £40mn and then add the Directors Loans.
    That's assuming the Australians had their complete syndicate together for the £40mn in the first place or since.
    The debate goes on but the price remains ridiculously the same, keeping buyers away.

    I think all of us agree that his valuation is high and above what most think is reasonable

    But we do know that the 40 mil has been bid by two parties

    One Saudi one aussie

    The 7mil I refuse to believe was unknown by RD or those bidding

    I also think that it’s the easiest part to work through

    The biggest indicator is harris quotes in SLP Friday

    He did not quite say that, but no one member was to have a controlling interest.
    Which is why Muir is not going to stump up £40M by himself, despite people posting on and on about the Aussies having the money.

    From my, all be it limited, experience of mergers and takeover etc this doesn't appear to be a clear buying and selling exercise.

    We were led to believe that a fee and dd had been agreed in the early part of the year.

    If they don't have the funds, why when the fee was agreed didn't they either walk away or RD tell them to piss off?

    If there is a real will to buy AND a real will to sell it would have happened now. If there was a smallish, resolvable issue, they could of still ensured investment into the playing staff in the window. I suggested this at Christmas to.

    If it is purley price or lack of funds it would have been off months ago.

    It seems Roland is indeed waiting for a “purley” price and it seems we must all wait for an oyster to create one from a grain of sand...couple of hundred years is that?
