    Charles 11?
  • Takeover update on Twitter....
  • So it’s the ex directors loans holding up the sale then?

    and why bring up the Varney thing?

    I’m so confused!

    Well Ebbsfleet arent looking to great and RD hates Varney so he is clearly showing he is superior in every way possible...just a dick basically.

     Because it's Duchatelet and - among other things - he's a paranoid obsessive.....
  • My interpretation is we're close to being sold but he's also thrown Bowyer under the bus has his excuse ready for when Bowyer walks away.

    And it was the Ebbsfleet owner that previously tried to buy us?

    Just what I was asking Airman about....

    ‘Following the win, I was filled with hope as one of the parties interested in buying the club wanted to move forward quickly to complete the purchase of the club. They want to solve the issue of the ex-directors loans first, which I can understand but may take time. In this respect I would like to thank Richard Murray, Sir Maurice Hatter, David White and David Hughes for their cooperation during this process. 

    The delay is frustrating, because the fact Charlton are now back in the Championship should increase our chances of being sold and now, with the summer transfer window opening, is the right time to acquire a club.’

    It’s the loans now causing the holdup. Why must it ‘take time’. You’ve already had two years Roland!

    So it’s still the Aussies then if you had an idea it was the loans causing the hold up?
  • Is that ex-director still yawning on Twitter?
  • Couldn't RD sort the loans out if he wanted to?
  • And also the loans won't take that long just give them their money back.

    What's the actual issue with the directors loans?

    Are the loans really that huge of an issue here? How much are we actually talking about?
  • re Directors loans - he's dumped a couple of people in it right there hasn't he. We can assume those mentioned, who he thanks, are playing ball from which I assume the others are not. Also confirms recent rumours that ex director loans are holding up a sale **


    ** assuming Roland can be believed.

    And which ex directors are not on Roland list? Bob Whitehand maybe? Are the ones on his list the ones who are co-operating, and the ones who aren’t the ones causing the delay?
  • I’ve heard the price has now been agreed by the way. (Not from Aussies).

  • Not that I am an RD fan, But do I get the impression that we are now coming towards the end game. Even by RD's standards that was a polite update and he has given us more than what was hoped without revealing who they are. Does this now mean that the people wanting to purchase the club with NDA in place now happy for RD to confirm that they are now moving forward with the purchase of the sale and if they can all the Directors agree to their loans then final papers will be submitted to the EFL for approval and the Sale can go through. Why the need to pay off all of the Directors loans?  Is it possible they can move forward with 4 of them paid off and 3 still in place.

    So the Aussies have agreed the fee but you heard it from someone else, or someone other than the Aussies have agreed a fee?

    Heard from someone else. 
  • I imagine the price and the price + director debt are different things, inheriting (I think) £7 million off the bat isn’t something a sane businessman is going to want to do.

    I think not. 
  • Fundraiser to get rid of him quicker here we go 
  • Roland lets be clear the ONLY thing holding up the sale is YOUR unrealistic asking price----spin all you want but the problem is YOU and your EGO 

    fucking end of
    He says it’s the directors loans. Maybe that’s all that’s left to sort out
