Depressing as it seems,I personally believe that RD has seen ,after our play off experiences,the potential of the club.We have a superb management team,who will put together a decent championship side,our crowds next season will be much bigger in spite of those that still choose to boycott(not a criticism).Away crowds at the valley most weeks will be 2500-3000.With clubs like Leeds,Derby,Forest,Millwall etc.I can foresee many 20000 gates.If this turns out to be the case,the losses will diminish,and he will be in no rush to take a low bid.
yeah, really seen potential by refusing to make money available !
jesus christ, we are looking likely to be relegated this season... just exactly what are some people on here smoking
I know I've said it before, but I just can't believe that RD ain't got one member of his team, a friend, family member, who hasn't told him that these offers are the best he's gonna get and to give his head a f****** good wobble, especially if he considers the losses he's making while it drags on. Obviously all just brown nose "yes" people, like DLT or whatever he's called. And it also shows what a distrusting, controlling stubborn w⚓ RD is
I stick with my long held view that it’s not just about the money.
If there ever were interested parties I think they’ve now missed the boat. RD’s got the right manager in place with the right people backing him and they’ve got a system that has worked once and will do again this season. The turning point was the contract deal with LB. everything changed then imo, it signalled that RD had bought into this season’s game plan.
I can’t believe after all this time there are still people who think like this.

reading through this again, it mentions a deal that fell through with WMG (Mehmet Dalman founder) before Roland bought from the spivs.. know anything about this @Airman Brown?
Nice to see all the positive attitudes towards our prospects next year.Throwing money at players is not always the answer(Sunderland,Portsmouth),good managers (Curbishley,Powell) can build teams without spending fortunes.We got up last year without spending,many people said we would get relegated.Get players in with a point to prove,and who want to play for the club rather than look only at what the wages are.I have a grudging respect for RD in not paying inflated wages,which the club cannot afford.( How many clubs are deep in trouble with massive wage bills that could cripple them if they do not make the promised land.)I still think that once the season is under way,given a decent start,crowds will return,and many (not all) clubs will fill out the away end.

Well that expains where the 'Thick' part of your user name comes from
Bit of a difference between not throwing money around and losing half your squad while offering the lowest wages in the league.

I don’t think anyone wants to see massive wage bills etc, but year on year the squad gets dismantled and we have to start again. Last year saw the basics of a good squad that just needed to be built on, this is pretty much what he’s done since he came in the door. The club just needed to build on what was there, instead he knocked it down and started again his way. It took us five years for us to get back where we were when he came in.

Modern professional football is inflated, every aspect of it.
Do I feel better that Gallen and Bowyer are heading our recruitment drive thats an easy 100% yes.
Is our owner and there boss making there life easier, not at all. Cant see Bowyer wanting to overpay but just pay what he thinks they deserve to play for Charlton and play in the championship.
Eventually the well will run dry and stop producing. He needs to go.
If he can’t strike a deal with a geeza who’s got serious cash then who will he strike a deal with, which leads back to the original diagnoses that, we are not for sale. Roland just fall down a lift shaft or sumin.

Don't shoot the messenger; I just wanted to be the first person to put that particular link on this thread.
Just saying.
It would have been a lot safer to wait, and if right claim you knew all along.
You are now officially ITK. May God keep you safe.

Bowyer and his team got us up. Not RD.
Into the ITK club you go, I hope you enjoy your stay and tell us what it’s like over there
