    Suppose we’ll find out in VoTV on Saturday, don’t want to ruin sales

    Plot twist. He doesn’t have a clue, like every single other dick swinger on this thread.
    Don't quite get the constant hate towards people passing on info. Nor the accusations of 'dick swinging'.

    Despite being fairly wedded to their version of events and loyal to their sources, I don't ever remember Airman, NLA, J Seed etc giving it the biggun and pretending they were better than any of us for having certain contacts.

    So stop digging people out for the sake of it. This saga has driven us all completely fucking insane but taking it out on fellow Addicks is just embarrassing.

    The famous 'done deal', for example, was premature, but it was just passing on statements from credible sources inside and outside the club. Get over it. Would you rather the likes of Airman just sat on their arses, not digging, not questioning, not pressurising, not seeking info? Leaving us all in the dark and resigned to haplessly eat up the lies from Roland and Murray? With that attitude, our club wouldn't have been saved in the 80s/90s, and Roland may never have put us up for sale this time around.

    Stop digging out our own for being proactive and sharing info just because they're not fucking Nostradamus.
    No hate, just facts. No one is ITK.
    You don't say! We'd all know what was going on if we were ITK.

    How can they be ITK if even Roland and the Aussies don't know what's going to happen?

    Even if it can't predict the future, some info is better than no info, so let's just lay off those who try to shed some light on this shit show.
    So you admit, no one is ITK. Which is my point that you have been arguing.
    I haven't argued that at all mate. I argued that people should stop digging out fellow fans who get/share information on what might be going on.
    I’m not digging fans out, I appreciate information, but no one has been correct, no one, imo, is ITK.

    Therefore logically, you could be wrong about that. Just saying
  • Do we even have enough players to practice? We would need 20 for that. What are we at? 17?

    you think there's going to be a crowd of 10k there on saturday ??
  • “It’ll be done after the transfer window has closed and Roland has had the chance to sell whoever he can”

    Not long to find out if this turns out to be true
  • Have the director bonds been sorted out yet?

    Not heard that they have.
  • Clue in my name as to where I now live. Admit to posting mainly when had a sherbut. But have been a season ticket holder many times in the past. Now been up here for 25 years, I feel very deep down as Charlton as I ever have done, though struggling to get into this season tbh. I follow this thread with all the emotions of a right side covered end rollercoaster game. But my feelings are overshadowed by what feels more like a less intense but still similar feeling of if a member of the family is fighting for their lives, for those of you who have been through this, it tends to be a rollercoaster of emotions and constantly changing conditions / situations and emotions. In my life it has sometimes turned out good and sometimes not.
    I need to pull away from that thought but feel how the shit this one will turnout like fuk nose.

    Fuck off Roland. Give me my club back..I still support the team jj and lb. Lets try and find a way of expressing that and our hatred of RD and getting rid of the duck tape out of OUR club
    Charlton till I die.

    Charlton?
  • Roland’s waiting for the money he’ll get from selling Bauer and Aribo. Or Lookman’s sell on clause.

    You’re forgetting the mechanism. Money received taken off agreed price

    Which makes it worse folks, as it’s then all about saving wages. And sabotaging our chances of promotion/avoiding relegation.

    Maybe Roly is reducing the price accordingly, so the buyer can pay them off, after he has one last shot at gaining transfer funds and sell on fees............But probably not.

    Then why would the Aussies be up for someone sabotaging the chances of their new asset?

    It’s a very strange situation.

    I’m just speculating nonsense.

    How about “it’ll be done after Usmanov sells his Arsenal shares”?
  • Maybe Rolly will join the consortium. Reduces his monthly losses in the short term and he can sell his share in the fullness of time or reap a full share of the Prem windfall.

    I thought I would cheer you all up.

    I'd say it was a sad situation and its getting more and more absurd
    I guess that's why they call it the blues Arsene?

    If there was money in the protest fund still uncommitted, would it be possible to organise a public delivery of water to the training ground perhaps, a gift from the supporters to the youth players?

    HA - ignore me - well done guys!

    In any takeover it is normal for the buyers to get the sellers to make unpopular decisions prior to the sale, so the new management is not tainted from the start. Could be the Aussies have given Roly a monthly cost/payroll figure that he has to get to before the sale can go through. Hence the player sales and other economies.
  • It’s an undefined mechanism if you recall @JamesSeed
