Sitting on a beach in Goa is the best way to take all the crap going on. Waiter......a large Campari and Lemonade please, just put it on the bill....”I fank yew.”
Unmasked ... @SoundAsa£ is really Lorraine Chase .... Campari and Lemonade .... WTF is that all about
Sitting here with the cooling sea breeze and a C&L with a slice of orange.....thinking of you all! Luv.....SoundAs.
You are obviously bored and can’t wait returning to Blighty
So the message seems to be that the Aussies should clear off, in order to make Roland drop his price and find another buyer?
In other words, it's the Aussies' fault that the price is too high and if only they would disappear then the price would go down so the club can be sold to someone else.
Not sure that logic stacks up, to be honest.
If the Aussies were the ONLY people to accept Roland's price, then yes it's them that have kept the price high.
If ALL potential owners told Roland they would only pay say £25m, then Roland would have to drop the price below what he's asking. If one group seem happy to pay £40m then to him that's justification that his price is fair.
So, to clarify, you're actually saying that it's the buyer that has caused the price to be too high? And not the seller?

Yeah! Lemonade in Campari ffs sacrilegious tasteless buffoon The democratisation of fine quality comestibles is not a good thing. Ability to purchase is not the same as suitable. As if a clueless crackpot would buy a football club cos he has the cash but not the first fuckin idea or interest in how to run it 🙀😡🍷

I think what is meant is because the 'buyer' has agreed a high price (but never actually followed through), the 'seller' believes that that is the fair price and can see no reason to lower it for anyone else.
Indirectly the 'buyer' has prevented the price from being dropped - but only because the 'seller' is so deluded that he cannot see that this seller is unlikely to ever complete and is too proud to walk away

Not sure the ‘buyers’ are responsible really.
Imagine you’re selling your house (sorry) and someone comes in and says, ‘that sounds fine, but I’ll check with the people buying the house with me’. They then come back to you and say, ‘sorry, my co-buyers say “no” because the price is too high’. You’d have to be nuts to think you’ve got a buyer at the high price. You haven’t.

I think we are agreeing - I believe Roland has only listened to the bolded part and is sticking to the memory that someone agreed the price, so eventually they will pay
Whilst owning said house, you also have to spend money to keep it in good working order, otherwise the value is going to go down and not look attractive to a seller

There is no indication that the sales brochure includes the price (or wether it is just a marketing brochure) plus the price is between buyer and seller... As Mr Harvey himself said they can't get involvdd orvinfluence ir. I am sorry it doesn't take 2yrs to buy a club. It has to be they don't want to pay over the odds for a league 1 football team that will now need 7/8 new players.

I still can't get to the point where I can imagine blaming the buyers (at whatever level of culpability) for the price being too high. I guess I am clinging too closely to the thought it's the seller that sets the price.

You don’t really know for sure that happened, and if papers were lodged that there was an agreed price attached. It’s all above my pay grade, so I don’t know they weren’t either.

You can lodge a "Sale & Purchase" agreement without the final price being on it. The agreement would contain the broad strokes of the deal as well as the finer detail.
Once the price is agreed the lawyers just send another copy to the EFL this time with the price on it.
Duchatelet is being punished by having to foot our monthly running costs, circa £800k. It is his own fault for not lowering his ridiculous selling price, so this saga could go on and on, with him losing more and more money on his failed project. So Duchatelet tries to strip back the running costs to make a potential sale more viable - Ha, ha to that! Meanwhile we the fans and staff are being punished by Duchatelet by him refusing to invest in key players, which makes promotion far less likely. My response is to avoid attending home matches and thus giving him my money - but sometimes I do break this pledge to myself, weak though I am. I do wonder what Jim White makes of all this because it does appear as if he has been well and truly played by our loathed owner.

He told me that sale was agreed subject to confirmation by a couple of people. Obviously looks highly probably they said no. But even if a price was verbally agreed and Roland didn't hear the 'subject to approval' bit, the buyer has the right to reduce the offer, as the sale wasn't concluded. Unless a contract was signed and sealed I guess, in which case they might be in breach of contract, but that seems unlikely.
Selling one half of a successful strike partnership and replacing him with a journeyman that can't get into Gillingham's first XI............ .............you know when you've been Shitweaseled!
The mans an idiot. Because he only has 2% of his time to be involved because his so busy. He lets players contracts run out so a young prospect goes to the premier league for 2million while a journey man footballer goes to league one for 4 million.how has this man managed to get so wealthy.the same will happen with Aribo.

Imagine you’re selling your house (sorry) and someone comes in and says, ‘that sounds fine, but I’ll check with the people buying the house with me’. They then come back to you and say, ‘sorry, my co-buyers say “no” because the price is too high’. You’d have to be nuts to think you’ve got a buyer at the high price. You haven’t.
So the message seems to be that the Aussies should clear off, in order to make Roland drop his price and find another buyer?
In other words, it's the Aussies' fault that the price is too high and if only they would disappear then the price would go down so the club can be sold to someone else.
Not sure that logic stacks up, to be honest.
If the Aussies were the ONLY people to accept Roland's price, then yes it's them that have kept the price high.
If ALL potential owners told Roland they would only pay say £25m, then Roland would have to drop the price below what he's asking. If one group seem happy to pay £40m then to him that's justification that his price is fair.
So, to clarify, you're actually saying that it's the buyer that has caused the price to be too high? And not the seller?
I think what is meant is because the 'buyer' has agreed a high price (but never actually followed through), the 'seller' believes that that is the fair price and can see no reason to lower it for anyone else.
Indirectly the 'buyer' has prevented the price from being dropped - but only because the 'seller' is so deluded that he cannot see that this seller is unlikely to ever complete and is too proud to walk away
Not sure the ‘buyers’ are responsible really.

Papers being lodged with The EFL, at the agreed price would suggest ypur scenario didn't happen though.
You don’t really know for sure that happened, and if papers were lodged that there was an agreed price attached. It’s all above my pay grade, so I don’t know they weren’t either.
I do know both things, as the EFL themselves have confirmed it.
Unless they are lying?
I don’t know anything about that (above my pay grade) but others are saying price not necessary part of that sale agreement.
But even if it is, unless the deal is concluded a buyer can pull out and offer a lower sum if circumstances change. If that’s what’s happened then it’s Roland slowing things up by not being realistic. Normal rues don’t seem to apply to him.

Were they papers related to the price or to the fit and proper test? Or to something else.
And even. If the price was agreed initialy doesn't mean it's still agreed.

Maybe because the key element, the price, has not been agreed.
Once the price is agreed the lawyers just send another copy to the EFL this time with the price on it.
But even if a price was verbally agreed and Roland didn't hear the 'subject to approval' bit, the buyer has the right to reduce the offer, as the sale wasn't concluded. Unless a contract was signed and sealed I guess, in which case they might be in breach of contract, but that seems unlikely.
.............you know when you've been Shitweaseled!
And no signs of it ending. What a shit business.
