Ok, but what's it doing in this thread, you ask, quite reasonably. Well because of this little nugget:
The big one came last year. In a two-year stint in London, where he learnt English, he was approached to buy unfancied sides such as Charlton Athletic and Brentford. Instead, in September he acquired 51 per cent of Real Valladolid, a team in the lower reaches in La Liga, Spain’s top division, for €28m
So there we have it, another benchmark to add to the many that would show any reasonable person that anything over £30m for Charlton is ludicrously over-priced, and that any buyer of a club has options outside the English bubble that may be much more viable.
Thinking about it....@CharltonMadrid would you know if Valladolid own their own stadium, and roughly what sort of TV revenue they would get in La Liga? If I recall, didn't it improve recently when they moved to a collective deal? And what sort of gates do they get?

Or how do they compare in terms of wage bill, to Villa, Leeds, WBA or Derby, 3 of which won't go up this season.......
the septuagenarian shitweasel is on record for wanting out of football the happenstance that the douchebag has found a buyer for his failing Spanish 2nd division side has no bearing whatever on his tenure at Charlton the wrinkled old lunatic has got lucky that his number plucking price for Alcorcon has met the valuation of a serial sports investor it is well established that roly comprehends the square root of bugger all to do with football Harris and his associates can acquire no more than 9.9% of Charlton, cos they own a chunk of the croydon craphole already. There's no glimmer for us there. Keep up the pressure, the protests and remember - not a penny more.

About as much as the 1600 odd pages on this thread! It has some relevance I think.
I'm desperately trying to not think that the old scroat has deliberately offloaded to the bloke who owns the Surrey mob as a vindictive act, but instead I'm going to cling to the belief that he can now focus all of his (football related) time to selling us.

Remember? That brilliant tie-up we had with them?
Ended up going on loan to Reggina in 1999/00 - Would be crazy to look back had he spent a season with us

Is surely what he'll claim now about the inability to sell Charlton

Proof that he wants out of football.
