I just can't see it being the aussies - I'm still not convinced they aren't an RD construct for negotiating purposes - I'm picturing Mike Ashley negotiating for our club right now and to be honest, I'd take that. It all makes sense to me whereas the Aussie thing never has. He won't be interested in languishing round in league 1 but now we are up, he will go for it and hence the trigger to offload Newcastle. He may not be everyone's cup of tea and he may not be a stinking rich arab but he's rich enough for us not to have to worry about going bankrupt, is high profile enough to want to have a real go at being successful and we are the biggest London club that he is likely to get his hands on - barring West Ham, but I can only see them going one way with that soulless bowl of theirs so no value there to be unearthed.
The Aussies aren’t an RD invention, but I agree I’d be surprised if Murphy was involved now. Don’t rule out Muir though.
I don't doubt they exist but as a front that will never follow through - maybe, maybe not but lets be honest Airman, you can't know for sure either.
Muir is mega rich by any standard. To think he’s playing games for the benefit of Roland Duchatelet or to piss a few thousand Charlton fans off is laughable. He has been and if he was at Wembley still is interested. Strange that it’s taken two years to reach god only knows what point but interested nevertheless.
Pissing about for 2 years is more laughable to me
Well let’s just say he’s not a RD puppet trying to upset you.
ok, but lets be clear - i never said he was trying to upset anybody - just create competition
By getting a millionaire with at least twice as much money as he has to fly to the other side of the world over a two year period to help out his madcap scheme. How the fuck would he manage to do that ?
didn't muir make his money in the same industry as rd? who knows what deals go on - who cares in fact - my opinion is the aussie thing is a complete and utter load of nonsense
Muir made his money as owner of The Good Guys, a global chain that sold TV's and electronics. Not sure you had em there, but they rivaled Circuit City in the US during the 1990s.
Wasnt some papers put in to the EFL from the Aussies?, could they have agreed a price for the club pending promotion, hence the waiting for the last of those papers to be handed in, makes some sense to me, and also why the Aussies have hung around so long.
Forget signings, the one thing you can’t buy in football is momentum and we’ve got it in bucketloads at the moment. We have to move forward in the next week or two, it’s imperative. If we do get a takeover and sign up Bowyer and co, I really believe we can go up again. But this is RD.....surely he ain’t going to fk us again, is he?

Why not? We're all getting excited/uptight about the future but Roly couldn't give a rat's arse about us or Charlton. Remember, to him it's pure business, no emotional attachment whatsoever and he only devotes 2% of his waking time to CAFC. "Y'all do the math" as our American cousins would say.
I think I read on one thread that someone said that the two guys were from Betdaq but doesn’t that seem unlikely given that Betdaq are owned by Ladbrookes I think ? Also do Middle East investors get into betting ?
Hints of two Middle Eastern guys with Curbs at Wembley . Anything on that ?
Cycled past Sparrows Lane at around 12.30 today and I am 99.9% certain the same two bloke pulled out Infront of me in a huge Range Rover.
1) Check the film from your camera helmet. 2) Why aren’t you working? 3) Has your car broken down? 4) What was the reg number? 5) How close we’re you to them at Wembley? 6) How pissed were you?
