If true that he now wants 33Mill plus director loans, that seems reasonable for a club like us, given the league/facilitators/youth set up/fan base - Big Big If though
So you think that our club is worth £40m. Are you sure?
So did Rhoys Wiggins and he was well embarassed about it. Until I told him that his gaffer, Chris Powell, had the same dark secret. Wiggins had no idea - SCP kept it very quiet!
How complicated can it be James ? They’ve agreed a price / they are buying a football club - it’s difficult to comprehend what other crap Gerard might have found ? - I’m not doubting you btw - but I can’t understand what it might have been
Others explained on here. Ownership issues? Came up in a Jimenez court case I believe. That’s why all that money went on lawyers. Boring, but probably necessary. I’ve heard it’s driven away other potential owners.
It's the day before we play Australia in the cricket World Cup at Lords
and if the deal is not complete by then the potential new owners have missed out on a free day out Aussie bashing whilst drinking copius amounts of alcohol with me and mates
**Offer closes midday on the 24th June to new owners.

I was about to go to sleep full of optimism!! Cheers James 😂

Cricket is so.....last century, try offering them something of value/worth, like Top Man shares...
I feel like we are on the proverbial brink in terms absolutely everything, takeover, bowyer, transfers, contracts pending to out of contact players. I've decided im going turn my phone of not log in to any football/ charlton related sites just turn it back on a weeks time from now.
What will be the situation in 1 week from now?
My predictions
Will Roland still be here ? Yes
Will bows be here? No
Will any of players signed their contracs? No
Will we have bought anyone? No
Uber negitive in the hope I'm wrong see u in a week:)
Still amazed when I see ‘google’ or ‘Wikipedia says he’s our new owner’ posts in 2019, do people think the internet has some kind of magical power to see the future?

It’s only worth what someone’ll pay for it.
I don't believe that anyone will pay £40m, certainly not the Aussies.

For a championship club in London? 100% will have interest at that price, if that’s really the price.

How much is he worth? After a quite a while of trawling the internet all I could find was 253 million on a site that looked almost entirely like bullshit. Anyone else have a figure?

Looking around, there is nothing about his net worth, which tells me he probably has plenty. But when you look at all the people he knows (and knew,) and his current roles with many banks and investment companies, all that tells me he is worth oodles. It's not just what money he has but what money he can access and my guess is he can access whatever he wants. If we get him, my guess is we will be limited only by FFP rules and not much else.

Pretty much what I thought. Investment bankers don't give too much away. His past endeavours puts him up there. He clearly wants his own football club. Where it goes from here is anyone's guess. Here's hoping.
Nothing is developing here though is it. It is just a face and a name to a story we already knew about. A story that has not gone anywhere for a few months.
I'm going back to the crisp thread until this all blows over.
It's been approved in a high court that Pringles are not crisps. Instead, they're biscuits, apparently. ... Well, the court ruled that the snack, which is made of 42 percent of potato, should not be categorised as a potato crisp product. That's because of the tube's 'unnatural shape'.
A shooting star moment of hope. Put away the It's Happening gifs and continue the life draining vigil of waiting for the didgeridoo botherers to actually do something.

They Aussies might be watching on the telly, from down under.
Calm down everyone and just think about how excited CL was this time last year.
It's new season ticket application time again. That's the reason this has come out now and how many bought them last year cos they thought Roland was going?
Possibly but the news first broke in a Welsh paper which suggests it wasn’t leaked by RD.
And poor Airman is smarting at being publicly scooped by a Welsh regional. Yet he's had the name for a while it seems. So why does it break now from the Welsh end? Close or impasse or mischief? Who knows??
Rich Cawley also claiming on Twitter today to have been chipping away at the story. With the avalanche of news stories yesterday it’s easy to get a feeling that a sale completion is imminent, but I’m not sure there’s any real evidence for that.
My meagre contribution was to have told Gerard about Dalman. He seems to think he must be some way off completion, but no one knows how long he’s been doing his DD, do they? Hopefully the Aussies will pull their finger out, which might in turn make Dalman speed up. Aussies do want Bowyer, but only a fool wouldn’t.
