Can I pick the mic up yet or shall I leave it on the floor
Fucking Aussies I shit em
Though if the delay is due to an unrealistic asking price then they’ve done the right thing. No one should overpay for the club.
If we were worth £35m/£40m or whatever is it he wants someone probably would have paid it by now.
Then they never should have agreed in The first place.
What exactly have they agreed? I’m not certain any party has ever agreed a price.
The joint statement was pretty clear, wasn't it?
Their contact on this board also stated several times the deal was ready to go through, several times, you don't get to that stage without agree a price.
In my opnion They always planned to drop their offer at the last minute, assuming douchbag would have no choice but to accept, however, we know RD was furious at this and point blank refused.

Youd have to have a bloody clue before you done DD and got a consortium together surely.
Until you do DD you don’t know what you are getting yourself into so even if you had previously agreed a price that goes out the window when you discover the actual facts.

What you say would, under any normal circumstances, be correct......however we just don’t know what has transpired in this weird and wonderful saga to have ‘possibly’ changed their offer......if indeed an offer was ever made......or if one was, then was it accepted? Jeeezuz....what an unfathomable mess this is, just what can any of us be led to believe? Makes everyone’s heads spin.......anti clockwise I may add, which is of course far worse!

If we assume the statements are accurate and not leaving out certain details. If we believe statements are 100% accurate then it’s nothing to do with price and the Aussies just need to complete the deal. Is that really the case?
It’s been months since those early statements. If they agreed and later dropped a price to beat others then why were they seemingly in no hurry now when there are apparently four other groups around (plus Fawaz)?
I was also a bit shocked to hear they only sat down face to face for the first time with RD in August, wasn't it, after Konsa sale? Think trust blown on both sides of that deal.

He was 'furious' with Fawaz and broke of negotiations with him because of the 'breach of trust' of posting a picture of his tour of the Valley on social media.
Yet he's still involved with the Aussies who you suggest agreed a price and then tried to 'low ball' him with a premeditated price drop at the last minute?

This entire thing is smoke and mirrors, nothing is what it appears, The only people I trust to be telling the truth here are The EFL.
Admin.....any chance of putting one of your short summaries up....can't be arsed going through all the pages since I last looked at this thread (23rd Aug)....cheers.

So why did his team welcome the Aussies with open arms in full view of the public at the play off games. Is their NDA different?
Don't buy the tweet line myself. It didn't say he was trying to buy the Club, just showed he was there - could have been for a myriad of reasons.
I was also a bit shocked to hear they only sat down face to face for the first time with RD in August, wasn't it, after Konsa sale? Think trust blown on both sides of that deal.
Feels like we are as far away as ever.
Personally, I think when the Australians actually Roland met it went about as well as Mike Pompeo's meeting with Kim Jong Un. I think both sides think they are being robbed one way or another.

Just read the first page again, nothings changed really.
Just a lot of bollock casting, dick waving ITK stuff that has barely rang true, some poetry, fish puns and a disgraceful act of microwaving a pot noodle,

No-one should lose sight of the Aussies' clearly-stated plan, with regards to communicating where they are in the deal:
We remain hopeful of being able to conclude a deal in due course but we will not be making any statements or comments until a deal is completed.
Better that than un-trusted half-truths, obfuscation and exaggeration from the other side.
I think that if Lieven De Turck's repeated claim that "The Australians still have to lodge a few documents with the EFL. They haven’t done this yet" seriously misrepresented the position of the Australian+ 'bid' then they would be likely to break their 'vow of silence' to correct it.
I think it's also interesting that De Turck's most recent report to the Fans Forum adds to what he's said before: "They have said they are working on it and they are confident they will do it. It is worth noting the group is now not just ‘the Australians’ but it is ‘the Australians and groups linked to the Australians’".
"Confident" is a step forward from the "hopeful" in their own last statement that you quote (choice of words can be significant in these type of situations).
