    Can't say which source supplied the info, but apparently RD was impossible to deal with, and they've had enough.
    Any chance, now that its all over, they can publicly give an update/their side of the story in terms of price changes etc.
    Now that's something I'd love to read
  • Really can’t see why he hasn’t given bowyer a long term contract.he can’t lose will get compensation when other clubs come in for him.
    The simple answer is that he really doesn’t care about Charlton Athletic
    We've gone from an owner actively making bad decisions, to an owner who's doing as little as possible. 

    Not sustainable in the long term, but more down to luck than judgement a situation which has delivered some success over the last year.

    We can't see why he wouldn't, he can't see why he would.  He can't see, cos he's not looking, he's never been looking where CAFC's going.  It's all just in his head.  We can be fairly sure now that anything that involves cash outflows over and above roly's random number generator will be rejected, regardless of the case that can be made.  the cadaverous cretin just blunders on.
    That's what these bidders eventually work out for themselves, they're only extras in roly's toxic pantomime, they've never seen the script, they bump into the scenery and fall off the stage at some point, with nothing more than a pain in the arras for their trouble.
    That's probably tortured that theatrical allegory enough for one day.  
  • What it all boils down to in essence is....the club is a banana skin just waiting for something to happen, it will all slip away if/when Bowyer has had enough, thats it in a nut shell.

    This would be really interesting to read just to see what they really were up against. 

    Dalman and other groups have mentioned in passing that RD is hard to negotiate with but the Aussies have had over 2 years of " talks"

    NDAs don't expire after a bid has ended, whether successful or not.

    Typically have a lifetime of 2/3 years though so I wonder if this is something they would consider doing if it has already expired?
  • looks like he's with us all season ... again

    If that's the case, then possibly :-)

    But I doubt anyone will care by then.
  • Colin aka bexley boy says they have not walked away.
    Then It's nailed on theyve walked.

    His information is somehow less accurate than Mr Seeds. ;)

    Surely they'll walk now? No where left to go.

    I thought Seed got his info from Bexley boy?.
  • Colin aka bexley boy says they have not walked away.
    Did they go walkabout instead?

    With all due respect, James knows GM so he’s heard it from the horse’s mouth

    What's the penalty for breaking the NDA. I assumed it would be something like calling off negotiations etc. Which surely wouldn't matter if they've already backed out. Not a hell of a lot RD can do if they do break it.

    does this mean the Aussie solo bid is off too? likewise the yanks?

    Sorry if I haven't kept up, but this was a bid where the Yanks just joined the Aussie consortium, and thus the Aussie bid which is over?
  • Is this the chance for the thread to go into the future?

    Absolutely, Roland will still own us this time next year so the pages could be unlimited.
