Purely a guess but I would think a delay might be because of obtaining additional/ supporting evidence from the UAE. If it’s purely workload then that’s outrageous.1

I've just rung the EFL and asked for the Chief Exec.Henry Irving said:Bob Munro is a high ranking exec at a football league club.
He probably deals with the EFL every week.
He says it's definitely happening.
So that means it's off
They asked who's calling and I said "Bob" - they then said "Bob who?" to which I replied "Bob Munro". They then said "Bob Munro who?"
Make of that what you will.0 -

When Eisner took over pompey, it took 12 weeks to get signed off by EFL.
How many weeks are we at now?

I know the situations are different, only stating what I read.
Maybe we're in for a longer wait than some might think.

So if it's not the EFL's workload and Roland is about to have a rant about the EFL then what is the issue?.0

Why can't anything ever be simple as a Charlton fan?
First Bowyer's 'strange' comments and now this!1 -
IF, and it's a big IF, the EFL are dragging their heels to get their own back at Roland, having a public rant is probably NOT the most constructive move
I'm not saying they're deliberately delaying it but I can imagine that some of the EFL staff may not be exactly busting a gut to help little ole Roland dispose of his asset. Hoping it goes through at least on 2nd or 3rd so that we don't miss too much of the window0 -
Roland sweating.
EFL having some fun8 -
I'm not sure about that, if say £50m has been agreed then he won't then get £50m + a few gate receipts and half STs.Return of the SE7 said:

Roland must be getting pissed off, a crate of 24 Highland Spring bottles has turned up at Sparrows Lane and he is liable to pay for them!7

The EFL do not believe they have received what they would need to sign off the deal at this point. It's not been rejected, it just hasn't been accepted. No detail beyond that.cafcdave123 said:

I think we can all assume that the EFL haven't received everything they need, otherwise it would be done.
(Unless we're suggesting they have everything and it's sitting in pending) .1 -
We are not the only.club the EFL has to work work, so yes it is workload, and they are more stringent than ever before due to the recent events at Bury.Airman Brown said:

Lack of source of funding clarity is my guess.2

Would be a nice 50th Birthday present for me if this is announced on Friday, come on EFL make it happen. I won't complain if it's before then either.
