    It will be completed after two weeks.

    Unfortunately, I don't know which two.

    When either RD or the Aussies compromise on price, if the rumours are true

    ‘Not pulled out / Not walked away’ doesnt really tell you anything as they are stationary, and have been for a while.

    They have not yet ‘walked to’ anything.

    The Aussie bid will remain stationary until the club is sold, either to them or someone else.

    This has been going on 18 months. It could easily go on for years. GM has said ‘we’ve not walked away probably 20 times so far. That could easily quadruple imo.

    Just as well the Aussies aren’t Catholic.

    So you or I are as close to buying the club as the Aussies? I'd say they have 'walked to' something, in they they've been trying to buy the club and have spent a fortune doing it.

    Effectively, yes. They could have spent £20 or £20m on lawyers, searches, DD etc in the preparation to purchase, but they are appear to be no nearer to owning it than you or I @Uboat (I personally think we need at least two others in our consortium mate)

    Well you're wrong there. I'm the Duke of Westminster.

    Now that Lookman was not transferred, that issue should be off the table now.

    Absolute rubbish, unless of course you've just won the lottery and decide you want to buy it blind with no contract, no due diligence and not instructing any lawyers. In which case, what's stopping you?

    That Seed tweet tells us absolutely nothing

    No different to 99.9% of the posts on this topic then.

    I don't think it was ever on it.

    Nor me.

    I said this previously, Roland has no idea about the timing for sell-on fees.

    He scarcely knows what’s happening on a weekly basis at Charlton.

    Next week (or 2) could be interesting from my pov:

    a) The HR person (should) be back from holiday and will have 20+ staff knocking at her door about the bonus issues, which could mean more negative publicity for the Duchatelet regime.

    b) TK (should) be back from holiday so he can pretend to run the joint, and avoid the media at all costs.

    c) Bowyer (should) be made permanent manager. It's laughable he hasn't been made manager already.

    d) Roland cannot now sell anyone/receive any sell-on fees till January at earliest (4 months away) so might use this chance to sell the club now (however this is Duchatelet we are talking about)

    e) we still have the EFL CAST & Club meeting too look forward too. Any idea when this is?

    f) I wonder when ROT will next be leafletting all the homes in Sint-Truiden, and with what message?
