    This one feels more ‘real’ than the others. A lot of people jumping on it as a story. 
    Agree, wonder why the identity has suddenly been leaked after 3 months though
    To either A) Put pressure on Douchbag to sell or more likely B ) Heres what you could have had Charlton fans before your shitweasel chairman fucked it up for you and the buyer walked

    Are we the only Club he still owns?
    Sorry, I should know but......

    Kind of hoping that if we’re the last to go, he might just say, ‘feck it Mehmet, it’s yours’

    I know. 

    Straws, clutching. 
    Still has the German club and his family still has the Hungarian club, I think.
    Bugger!

    In Wikipedia  Mehmet is listed as the owner of Charlton Athletic-do they know something we don't?  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mehmet_Dalman
    A little premature I think!

    Too good to be true!

    For me the reasoning of the Wales journo seems to be simply because the deal has taken so long. 

    I’d also add I’ve been pretty confident about Charlton keeping loads of players/managers/ staff that we’ve ended up losing.

    We know there is interest, let’s hope the 40/60 stuff is just conjecture.

    1699 was the year one of the Sikh gurus pulled an epic fakeout non-human sacrifice at the Baisakhi festival. Maybe a bad omen

    I actually have some info from the writer of the wales online article I’ve obtained from twitter guys and dolls..
    Ask him why he thinks Dalman will stay at Cardiff? 
    He said in a reply to a Cardiff fans “just hope it falls through which it might”. I think it’s more hope than judgement and the fact we’ve Roland.
  • king addickking addick
    Whilst we all know things can change....why break the story today only for people to say he is staying where he is? 

    Must be serious legs to this or they wouldnt bother.
  • RedmidlandRedmidland
    This story (about Dalman) is now 'breaking' everywhere, BBC just picked it up, Cardiff City on-line also quoting it, obviously the Evening Standard now confirming they knew about it 3 months ago...this i think either has legs and is putting pressure on RD to sell, or RD using it to put pressure on the Aussies. As i said in a post a few minutes ago...I believe something is happening and he's gone by 24th June.

    If you want an omen, it was also the year when William Dampier (scientist and pirate) was exploring Western Australia...
  • happyvalleyhappyvalley
    1699, William Kidd the pirate is imprisoned in Boston Massachusetts.

    As someone mentioned earlier, such deals would have to be kept quiet for a number of legal reasons.  With that in mind this must be at an advanced stage (is what I’m clinging to) or a repeat of the January shite to generate interest.  Of course we’ve all seen it before.

    Can confirm this one has legs, been keeping that close to my chest for months

    Flying out to Gran Canaria on the 22nd - could be a REALLY booze-fuelled holiday! Either be celebrating or drowning my sorrows.

    Dalman on the left. Who’s the other gentleman?

    Cawley’s last tweet is either a horrible tease or very interesting.

    I know he’s just mucking about but Christ Rich talk about getting our hopes up.

    Hopefully the experience Dalman obtained in handling that idiot Tan can now be put to good use with the Rat.

    He worked in London for at least 25 years, first knew him at an Investment Bank and he went off to work for a hedge fund for a while. Has been doing business in the Middle East for years.
    No doubt he's decent on a personal level and he's certainly come across well in Cardiff, but when I worked with him in early 2000s he was very dodgy. Under normal circumstances I'd say it's not good news, but he can't be worse than Roland (can he?). 
    He has many contacts, the club is crying out for investment. Where was it Commerzbank?
    Yes.
