Believe the Kewell story was placed in the media by the Robinson camp, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t true. The Crawley Observer story is a non-denial denial from Kewell. He wasn’t their first choice.
Robinson has known for a while the Aussie’s didn’t want him. Paul Elliott likely chairman.30 -
Cheers SuedeAdidas.. it mentions in the article it should be sealed by end of April. Now where is James Seedss prediction date thingy?

Aussies take sports seriously and want to be the best at anything they turn their hand to. That's the kind of mentality we've been missing for years.32

22.3.18 Summary
It's been another quiet week in Takeover Land.
Karl Robinson claimed that the takeover was up in air after the defeat to Blackpool although how much that was about diverting attention away from the dismal performance and how much was new information is open to debate.
CARD responding to this and the lack of further information from Richard Murray or Duchatelet by calling for protests from the Rotherham game onward, in both SE7 and Belgium.
@Redhenry had stated that the very rich party he is aware of is still very much in the game.
One comment, believed to be referring Redhenry's party, stated "The deal is mega, chairman already in place"
@Airman Brown mentioned Australians and "Arabs" as being the two parties involved in an article for Talksport.
Richard Cawley has said on Talksport that a takeover is "not far off" but isn't saying who or when.
@Redhenry and @Airman Brown both believe it to be very close with Airman saying that the "intention is Monday" (26/3) and @Redhenry saying it's not "his lot" which suggests it's the Aussies.
Paul Elliot mentioned as new Chairman.
Meanwhile,
Karl Robinson was allowed to leave by mutual consent after revealing that he has twice tried to resign. He is expected to join Oxford United.
Lee Bowyer, assisted by Johnnie Jackson, has been placed in charge of the team.0 -
We know Kewell and Bowyer are friends and have worked together before.Airman Brown said:

Wild speculation time: Would Bowyer as caretaker have been seen as acceptable to the new owners (Muir et al) as the new manager (Kewell) OKed it?1 -

Any indication on the wealth of the Aussies?4

Just as a side note I read somewhere that one of the women involved in the Arab consortium is worth 2.9b.
Looks like the Aussies have finally won through though so fair dinkums.
Can’t wait to see the back of that old scrot.1 -
If it is the Aussies, so be it. I think too much will be hung on how much cash they supposedly have/don't have and, if we've learnt anything from these past 4 years is that all those digits in your bank account mean squat if you're an idiot with them.
If these Aussie guys have been dicked about by Roland's nonsense for months and STILL want us enough to push a deal through, they've shown exactly the kind of willingness that should make them at least committed in their ownership, and that's all you can ask after the sh*tshow we've had to endure.50 - Sponsored links:

Our immigration laws will not allow this scenario. Only full Aussie internationals with a number of games under their belt or Aussies with a UK or EU passport will be able to turn up and sign a contract.robroy said:I just hope if it is the aussies that we are not used to farm in aussie players for the prem.
Sounds all too similar.
Maybe the plan is to move the Aussie national team to Charlton...... doubt that is possible though!3 -
Been mention of this on here earlier. Very difficult for Aussie players without full international playing history to get acceptance to play in UK - so unlikely. Only those with dual nationality where one of the nationalities is EU stand much of a chance.robroy said:I just hope if it is the aussies that we are not used to farm in aussie players for the prem.
