  • I think I saw something a while back, but can't find it now which shows the assets rising in value significantly since 2014. I remember because it looked fanciful.
  • 1542, Mary Queen of Scots dies.
  • Here
    That's Current assets, which is not the same as the freeholds.

    However, I've said all along that  RD is valuing the club at the F/H values.
    F/H values in London should continue to rise and it makes little difference whether the land can be developed or not.
    An analogy would be an expensive piece of art. You can't do anything with it, but it is still an asset of increasing value.
  • Just sell give the club away and f... off
  • I wonder if @NapaAddick is going to adjust his valuation now?
  • So Roland says the club is free, and you only have to pay for the land.

    So how much is the land worth, or how much does Roland think the land is worth?

    I can't find accounts for the last financial year on companies house, but I can see the accounts for the year before. Under tangible assets a value of £42,347,000.00 is stated. Katrien Meire signed this off on 20/12/2017.

    I might be totally misreading the accounts, and correct me if I am, but with the 7 million owed to former directors, and this valuation, your looking at almost £50,000,000 for the club.

    Crazy

    I think this sort of muddled thinking (not to mention optimism) from Roland has been holding up the sale for some time.

  • They revalued all the fixed assets in July 2017, which added £23.7m to the book value.
  • So basically Roland will only sell to a British consortium now?! Judging by what I’ve read.

    Good effort.

    Just a thought..

    Could CARD actually enter negotiations with Roland somehow? to actually get a price of what he is demanding? He admitted there is nobody in talks due to protests, which is bs as we all know. (This needs to be raised and clarified at the FF tomorrow @Henry Irving  @Davo55)

    @charltonaddickedmatt

    Neither @Davo55 (CARD aren't part of the FF) or I (I was standing in for @k@killerjerrylee last time) will be there.

    I doubt Duchatelet would reveal any details to CARD, not knowingly at least.


  • Here
    Net worth -£27,146,000.00.

    Is that how much he gives me if I take over?
  • Can the FF ask if they've got round to my bid yet, please?

    I have however, now revised my offer downwards, following the revelations that he is prepare to give the club away.

    The offer of the Roses/Quality Street/Heroes tin is still on the table and I am prepared to throw in a three pack of Cadbury's Cream Eggs as a sweetner.

    I can confirm that I'm British and not a Johnny Foreigner - though I did vote remain.
  • I’ve got a terrible feeling he is going to absolutely f**k us now!

    Well he might well do, but in  doing so he will also be f**king himself as well. Should he do so, we will rise again as in AFC Wimbledon

    He has to be careful... He knows this is getting a big problem now, and f'ing us over completely will not do his reputation any good in Belgium. The best option for him and us is just to sell, so he still has some chance to keep credibility in his own country.
  • The problem with graffiti is it pisses off everybody who lives and works in the area. Those fans may now find themselves considered as English football hooligans and now when they travel, drink, eat and stay in the area may find they're not so welcome anymore and Roland has gained some local sympathisers.

    And what a nice reminder to any prospective buyers of what they can expect if they don’t pump millions into the club and buy instant success

    That last bit just isn’t true though. Of all the protests I’ve been a part of, don’t recall any banners or chants demanding millions be pumped into the club or demanding instant success. 
    If they don’t pump in millions, what are they going to do to keep the club running, sell the premiership stars of the future ?; and if the team isn’t winning it won’t take long for fans to start moaning

    he doesn't have a CEO or proper comms team. Nobody wants to pay his price in League One. Maybe he realises that if he gave next season's budget to a consortium of fans to manage, they might a) succeed, thus taking pressure of him or b) fail thus taking pressure off him. Either way, it would go some way to stopping the protests.

    The issue would be what fans? I mean, we squabble like politicians over Brexit! Maybe that is a fanciful idea after all. But what sort of proposal could he mean?

    Club for £1 but he keeps the Valley and SL and leases it back. He'll also suggest a really good and experienced football club CEO he knows who is looking for work......

    We already are. 

  • He won't come to us so us going to him is the only way forward as for saying he will only sell to a English buyer I can not think of many English rich people that would like a football club losing up to 6 million a year so either way we are fucked 
  • And that is plain now to see why Aussie are unable to clinch a deal. 
  • So Jordon spoke to some people and Roland wants 50 Million - on talksport now
