Airmen - are you planning to send a copy of the statement to JW and ask him how / who gave him the statement that we were days away from athe sale, this dosnt stack up. I think he needs to go back to his contact get an explanation and put it out on his show for all to hear.
It does stack up. As the EFL themselves said, if the information is provided and is satisfactory things can move very quickly.
Apart from JW’s source, there was an expectation on the part of the club that it was about to happen at the turn of the year. The fact it didn’t get as far as the EFL doesn’t change the fact that other people - with every reason to know - thought it was about to happen
Is it about time (CARD) we call these Aussie’s out, they’ve had long enough now, looks like a cobbled together consortium which could end up worse than Duchatelet. It’s ok buying the club but then what?

Call them out for what purpose?
If they haven't got the money, as some say, then they won't buy the club anyway.
Other than the length of time they’ve had to get this done , no .However surely we can’t be happy with the way this consortium constantly appears to change shape

And what of the British ‘bid’? They have not even progressed to submitting papers to the EFL and yet they have been around for over a year. There is obviously a problem somewhere. I’m not convinced a deal has been agreed by anyone. I don’t trust Roland one iota. I’m convinced he’s the problem.

"Appears" being the key word. I don't know who the money was or is. They maybe great, maybe not but I know Duchatelet is no good.

It does appear that whoever the source is feeding yourself, Jim White, Richard Murray and 'other people with every reason to know' information is talking complete shit.

Right-o.
Richard Murray said it would be done by March.....that's March 2018.
Airman famously said the deal was done.
More recently Jim White said the deal was hours a way.
I would suspect those genuinely in the midst of negotiations are few. This false info appears to be coming from a single original source. Those in the club with every reason to know are more than likely getting info again from this single source.

Interesting extra information on the other thread. Seems to make a lot of sense, based on the time difference between that part of the States and Australia. Hope this gets confirmed very soon. I'm not ITK, but have to say thanks to @Rossman92 for bringing this new information.
Too many here would watch their mrs get shagged by the boss for 4 years and then when the boss has stopped shagging her and is just being a normal boss they would say oh it’s all ok now hes not doing anything wrong now . We have some proper lame fans, all deferential to Roly cos we’ve won a few games
That’s unfair. You cannot call fans lame for wanting to forgot the off field problems and concentrate on what could be a good season on the pitch.
Those defending him I don’t agree with, but some fans want to watch us win games and care little about the ownership issues, that doesn’t make them any less a fan.
I disagree, of course it does, if you dont care about the clubs fortunes and only the teams fortune, then, at some point you wont have a club left to support.
Sorry I don't agree. I accept people need to care about the long term future of the club. But do you believe Roland will allow us to go into administration? I don't, so although he isn't backing the club nor is he good for the club, I would still prefer us to get promotion under him then stay in League 1 under new owners.
So for me supporting the team and getting good results in the priority at this moment in time. If that makes me a 'lame' fan then so be it.

Agreed, but it doesn't make them any less short-sighted. What will their reaction be when all our best players leave because they are out of contract? This situation will arise even if we are promoted. This embarrassing takeover business must be sorted ASAP.
Totally agree, but they are two different issues. Some fans prefer not to worry about things they have no control over. I don't think it is fair to say they are any less fans then those who spend their lives depressing over the fact that Roland is our owner.
It's just as well that some fans do worry about things they have no control over otherwise we might still be playing at shithurst.
@bobmunro nails it......not to mention the Belgium protesters, those that produced all the 'protest' items and all the protesters that gave up their time behind the main stand...but hey as long as you can just come and support the team thats all right.
The protests were designed to get Roland out of the club. Last time I checked he was still the owner...
Someone take the shovel away......!
We are all entitled to our opinion pal. Mine is that it’s disrespectful to criticise the fans that go every week to support the players. I didn’t protest but I care about the future of Charlton hence why I want Roland out. But getting promotion also contributes to the future.
The fact is Roland is our owner, wants out and it will happen. In the meantime I will support the players as Bowyer has integrated some fighting spirit and im enjoying watching us play again.
I’m quite sure everyone supports the players whether attending or not.
But staying away takes some of that support away. And I am not criticising one person who is boycotting, I completely understand their reasons for it.
I think some of what I said has been taken out of context, but I stand by the fact that I don't agree with oohahh's comments. I think there is a big difference between saying "it's all ok now" as we're winning a few games and those who are putting the ownership issues to one side to support the side.
We all know Roland wants to sell and it will happen, so what's the point in continually slagging him off when we could instead be looking forward to Saturday afternoons again.
I’m saying a few wins doesn’t make it all alright and Roland is an owner worth having . The contract situation is a joke as is the management structure outside of the football pair who were the cheap options that fell in to place . I’m all for cheering the team on if you so wish, I do . But the punters who don’t go and abstain are making the biggest sacrifice . And I think the supporters who are indifferent to Roland are lame ducks who are happy to ignore his shitness of the past and can’t see past the next 4 months of football for our club. I understand people that don’t live and breath every bit of the club as some do but the bigger picture of the future of Charlton Athletic is more important than one promotion or not from League One . The poison that has damaged our club is still here and I’m not turning a blind eye to that and if you can’t see the bigger picture then lucky you Cos I know I can’t make the blind see . I was shouting that this owner was a joke experimenting with our club from season one but people couldn’t look beyond the 4 months of we’ve survived in the Championship when the writing was on the wall what that clown owner was doing and of course we have 3 years of league one dog shit as our neighbours feast at a higher table laughing at the joke owner to a point where it turns to pity because it’s so abysmal. Yes things might look rosey for 5 mins but I want another 113+ years of existence with less shit bits in it for the future and the future will be shit every minute the poison that is Roland is the owner of our club .
Well said, Grapevine. Slightly shorter than your usual postings.

Hawaii The Lads.
So what's been said?
Met an Aussie in Hawaii when I was there 2 weeks ago. One too many daiquiris made me think he said "I'm gonna buy Charlton Atheltic", while in reality he said "Oi, quit pissin in the pool, you're pathetic".

Lieven De Turck is ultimately the source within the club, but he’s not one of my sources and he’s not JW’s. Neither is RD.
I think if LDT isn’t “in the midst of negotiations” then something very odd is happening. A more likely explanation is that the Belgians are naive and have been at every turn.

Possible but not definite especially as the British group haven't closed the deal either.
We only have LDT unreliable word that the price has been agreed. I'm not convinced it has.
If they haven't got the money, as some say, then they won't buy the club anyway.
