I think CARD/CAST should release a statement and give them an ultimatum... The club make a statement on what is going on or we actively make plans to get each and every game postponed until further notice
How do we get games postponed? We haven’t managed it yet.
Still on ... RD and Aussies waiting on third party to finish there checks and investigation
Tbf this might well be true. RD said he’d start appointing people at the start of the season if it hadn’t go through and he still hasn’t so I’m Guessing they’re close, but we’ve been there x26258 times before
What he's saying might well be right, but its also just a reaffirmation of the known current position. 'Checks and investigations' makes it all sound a bit medical though.
Does the EFL have a phone number? What about if CAFC fans spent a day bombarding it with calls demanding answers to the Trusts questions so they can do fuck all else?
I have access to this technology we use at work called Lusha. It somehow has access via LinkedIn to people’s mobiles that they signed up to when they opened a LinkedIn account (if they gave their mobile). For me it’s a telesales dream as I now have a chance of getting through to a lot of decision makers. I will have a little trawl through it 2mo and see what it gives me re: EFL employees
Fulham just spent £100m in this transfer window...........and some of you were saying the Aussies shouldn't pay the £7m to the ex-directors IF we ever get to The Premier League.
yeh.......much prefer any new owners not to have this "debt" hanging over them & to be in the position we find ourselves in on Aug 9th.

Unless I've misunderstood you, I didn't read anyone saying that should the Aussies buy Charlton, they shouldn't pay off the ex-directors if we ever get to the Premier League. In fact they would have to pay them off.
I read numerous people saying that they felt the Aussies should stump up an extra £7M to pay off the ex-directors loans now, even though it's not their debt.
As has been said many times, it would be the same as agreeing to purchase a mansion at an agreed price and the owner then expecting the prospective buyer to repay their mortgage for them as well, which is clearly beyond ludicrous.

Roland is still making low offers to ex directors. Anyone who uses gaffer tape on his shoes is going to do that. I imagine the only time he’ll make a full offer is the day absolutely everything else is done and dusted.

oh dear.....lets do this one last time shall we.
The ex-directors loans are ONLY repayable on reaching the Premier League. The £7m does not increase....it is not inflation linked or repayable in a set time frame...so it will still be £7m in 20 years time. The loans can be rolled over to any new owner & according to @AirmanBrown the ex-directors do not have any say in the matter or need to be consulted on it (although this is disputed by someone on here who has read all the salient documents.....but an ex-director has specifically said that he agrees with @AirmanBrown).
Therefore, any new owner could pay RD the agreed price for the club, lock stock & barrel, and simply "defer" paying the £7m until that time arises. As I alluded to in my post, £7m at that time could be chicken feed compared to now......especially as in the time between agreeing a price with RD back in Feb to where we are now we are in a much worse position & it may take close to £7m over the next few years (transfer fees, salaries etc) to get us into the Championship if we got relegated this season.
Therefore, imo....to not just accept that there are these loans that ONLY have to be paid when there is going to be 10x that amount available (and may never have to be repaid as we may never reach the Premier League) and instead spend months fannying around to the detriment of the playing squad & therefore to any hope of promotion is just a false economy.
so.....to your analogy. its like buying a house that had an interest only mortgage attached to it that only has to be repaid when you sell the house in the future. If the house costs £40k now, and you know that when you sell it it will be worth £200k, would you not take on the £7k interest only loan......or would you wait for the current owner to rip out the kitchen, bathroom & windows before he pays off the £7k himself....leaving you with an asset which is now worth a lot less & to which you need to make immediate improvements just to bring it up to scratch.

Lusha is great! You can’t get in trouble for using it. It’s a google chrome add on for LinkedIn. Youget 5 free credits or phone numbers if the people have numbers out in the Www. You aren’t storing information and as long as you don’t publish it you can’t get into hot water

jeez.....its not rocket science.
As I also said previously commented, you are gambling on the fact that the TV monies still pouring into the premier league when Charlton get promoted, what happens if the gravy train get switched off or greatly reduced prior to this promotion? That’s right your left with a £7 million pound debt, which legally has to be repaid, as a businessman I would not take that risk. That’s the flaw in your very good argument, sorry in my opinion it’s not worth the risk of the owners taking on the debt it should be settled by the Belgium twat.

But, whilst you own the £40k house you cannot have a loft extension or redo the kitchen or pull down the garage and build 2x flats in the garden or any other hare brained money making schemes without the permission of 7 people you’ve never met or the early repayment of the £7,000,000 right..... jeez

I'm sure we've been over this countless times.
What you say is correct of course but you're forgetting one important factor here.
What happens when the Aussies decided to sell us in 3/4/5 years time and we haven't reached the premier league. The loans are still there and any prospective new owners insist that the loans are covered by the Aussies before they buy?
The Aussies would then lose 7m, so i'm sure you can see why they'd want them paid up by RD.
Does the EFL have a phone number? What about if CAFC fans spent a day bombarding it with calls demanding answers to the Trusts questions so they can do fuck all else?

Fulham just spent £100m in this transfer window...........and some of you were saying the Aussies shouldn't pay the £7m to the ex-directors IF we ever get to The Premier League.
yeh.......much prefer any new owners not to have this "debt" hanging over them & to be in the position we find ourselves in on Aug 9th.
Unless I've misunderstood you, I didn't read anyone saying that should the Aussies buy Charlton, they shouldn't pay off the ex-directors if we ever get to the Premier League. In fact they would have to pay them off.
I read numerous people saying that they felt the Aussies should stump up an extra £7M to pay off the ex-directors loans now, even though it's not their debt.
As has been said many times, it would be the same as agreeing to purchase a mansion at an agreed price and the owner then expecting the prospective buyer to repay their mortgage for them as well, which is clearly beyond ludicrous.
oh dear.....lets do this one last time shall we.
The ex-directors loans are ONLY repayable on reaching the Premier League. The £7m does not increase....it is not inflation linked or repayable in a set time frame...so it will still be £7m in 20 years time. The loans can be rolled over to any new owner & according to @AirmanBrown the ex-directors do not have any say in the matter or need to be consulted on it (although this is disputed by someone on here who has read all the salient documents.....but an ex-director has specifically said that he agrees with @AirmanBrown).
Therefore, any new owner could pay RD the agreed price for the club, lock stock & barrel, and simply "defer" paying the £7m until that time arises. As I alluded to in my post, £7m at that time could be chicken feed compared to now......especially as in the time between agreeing a price with RD back in Feb to where we are now we are in a much worse position & it may take close to £7m over the next few years (transfer fees, salaries etc) to get us into the Championship if we got relegated this season.
Therefore, imo....to not just accept that there are these loans that ONLY have to be paid when there is going to be 10x that amount available (and may never have to be repaid as we may never reach the Premier League) and instead spend months fannying around to the detriment of the playing squad & therefore to any hope of promotion is just a false economy.
so.....to your analogy. its like buying a house that had an interest only mortgage attached to it that only has to be repaid when you sell the house in the future. If the house costs £40k now, and you know that when you sell it it will be worth £200k, would you not take on the £7k interest only loan......or would you wait for the current owner to rip out the kitchen, bathroom & windows before he pays off the £7k himself....leaving you with an asset which is now worth a lot less & to which you need to make immediate improvements just to bring it up to scratch.
jeez.....its not rocket science.
I'm sure we've been over this countless times.
What you say is correct of course but you're forgetting one important factor here.
What happens when the Aussies decided to sell us in 3/4/5 years time and we haven't reached the premier league. The loans are still there and any prospective new owners insist that the loans are covered by the Aussies before they buy?
The Aussies would then lose 7m, so i'm sure you can see why they'd want them paid up by RD.
One would've thought that it should be an easy enough thing to negotiate for 2 very successful businessmen and their teams. Why they can't just split it down the middle and "go Dutch" is beyond me, when you look at the bigger picture from both sides (RD losing £millions a year and the Aussies long term investment).
But I'm not convinced it's got a lot, if anything, to do with these charges now. I just think the process has taken far too long, which has made RD sell a few assets to cover his losses for that period (which it hasn't), making the Aussies questions what they're actually buying. RD has come back and said that, as a favour, he won't increase the askin price to cover the shortfall (between sale of assets and losses), but the Aussies need to accept it's the same price for the Club but with less assets. Essentially, making out he's doing them a massive favour - Rolly logic
I think the only way out is for a mega mega rich person to come in and say, " Right, there's your £47.23m for everything as it is, I'll chuck the previous directors their dough, NOW FUCK OFF"
Does the EFL have a phone number? What about if CAFC fans spent a day bombarding it with calls demanding answers to the Trusts questions so they can do fuck all else?
I have access to this technology we use at work called Lusha. It somehow has access via LinkedIn to people’s mobiles that they signed up to when they opened a LinkedIn account (if they gave their mobile). For me it’s a telesales dream as I now have a chance of getting through to a lot of decision makers. I will have a little trawl through it 2mo and see what it gives me re: EFL employees
Do you take requests? I'll have Danielle Lloyd's number please.

Seeing as their plan is to reach the PL then I'd have thought it immaterial.....

'Checks and investigations' makes it all sound a bit medical though.

It’s a google chrome add on for LinkedIn. Youget 5 free credits or phone numbers if the people have numbers out in the Www.
You aren’t storing information and as long as you don’t publish it you can’t get into hot water

Of course I copied and pasted it. The first paragraph is taken from their GDPR page the second paragraph was from a review that isn't on their site.
I was genuinely interested to know how they got around GDPR as they sounded sketchy and it seems somewhere they found a loophole.
But I'm not convinced it's got a lot, if anything, to do with these charges now. I just think the process has taken far too long, which has made RD sell a few assets to cover his losses for that period (which it hasn't), making the Aussies questions what they're actually buying.

Thank you, looking forward to my PM.
