@jamesseed get hold of your contact and find some out news....
Someone get to Heathrow and someone else to Gatwick and wait for Muir, when you see him grab and drag him back to the Valley and dump him in the press room and whip your phone out record him verbally agreeing that he has bought Charlton then we have our sale.........
Sorry all this waiting and i have descended into lunacy!
Let's hope our Australians manage to do better than this lot. Homebase: bought for £340mn two years ago, messed up, sold for a £1. bbc.com/news/business-44248409
"This must go down as one of the most disastrous retail acquisitions ever - a textbook example of how not to do it.
The Australian firm thought they could show the Brits how to do DIY. So confident, they immediately sacked Homebase's senior management team. That was a huge mistake."
This has a familiar ring to it
I worked (briefly) for Fujitsu, who manage the firewalls for HRG (Argos, former owners of Homebase). To say that this announcement isn't a surprise would be an understatement...
Andrew Muir is flying back to Australia at the weekend for a two week break, after which he'll return to the UK.
Just my speculation, but that would mean Muir would have time to hold a press conference tomorrow, if there is an announcement to be made.
It could alternatively mean that he intends to come back in two weeks in time, for the completion of the sale, if the EFL has yet to complete its 'fit and proper persons test'.
After what I heard at my previous meeting, I believe the former is more likely to be the case.
Fingers and fins crossed!
More good news is that Muir and Murphy are very much looking forward to taking a tour of the Charlton Athletic Museum. Something you'd want to do if you were about to buy a football club with a history as rich as Charlton's.
Muir returning to Oz for 2 weeks could mean anything, unless you know more than you're telling.
Just got back from The Valley, got run over by a jag, and then some dirty old man in a cardigan tried to give me the kiss of life...I tried to tell him it was just my foot that got run over, but he wouldn’t listen.

Nope.
You’re absolutely right though. The timing might have been connected to the takeover, or it could have been prearranged. Of course he doesn’t need to be in the UK for the takeover to progress.
Seriously if the Belgian cnut is still in charge next season then that's me finished until he goes. I could not put up with another season of douchbag.

Just got a 2 for 1 on controller boards online so I can convert my old laptop into a fully fledged mini TV.
But why 2 for 1?
Well if you get offered 2 for 1 on something you need, why not buy a spare?!

Saw a very nice red Jag parked up. Some flash git got in and drove off, wasn't Murphy or Muir.
No news. There was some weird man in a cardigan giving me evils though as I drove away
