  • I long for the days when all you needed was a gansey to get in the CL Clique.

    What do you need to don to get into CL Royalty I wonder?????

    What is a "gansey"?
    It's what us elderly Celtic types call a cardigan.
    Well you learn something new every day on here!

    Technically yes.
    But in our house, anything woollen, handmade & itchy as feck was described as such.
    Killersbeard had a fine selection :-D

    The link below is to the tweets from Richard Cawley on May 21st that Sunderland's sale had just been approved by the EFL and Muir's consortium was next in line. He also confirmed that there is "Only one panel that sits on 'fit and proper' test":



    That was only 6 working days ago (plus as we know, due to the 'spivs' opaque ownership structure and Duchatelet's failure to do 'due diligence', consideration of Charlton's takeover might be more complicated).

    So shouldn't we all relax a bit?
    Surely the EFL wouldn't be interested in the convoluted structure - that's an issue for the buyer. It should merely be whether or not the prospective 'person(s) with significant control' are fit and proper.

    Especially, as far as we know, the ownership is no longer convoluted.

    @micks1950 makes an excellent point. Six working days only.

    Meanwhile Muir has gone to Oz for two weeks so pencil in week commencing 11 June for his return and the official news on the official site. I hope the story is written by @Ollywozere
    Ffs. I go on holiday on the 12th and the missus will get the right hump f I spend the whole time on Charlton life reading about the takeover.
    What takeover? Have I missed something?!
    Wish people would stop going on about it and get back to fish puns.
    This is not the time or plaice for it.
    I got abuse on Not606 because they thought I couldn't spell 'place', when I used that one. lol.

    They copied and pasted all my aussie stuff onto their site (are they allowed to do that?), and gave me a torrent of abuse, for reasons I don't fully understand. Someone there thinks I made it all up as clickbait. Bloody good idea for the next occasion. Must get some ads on my blog!
    Poor you. A torrent of abuse? Slightly overstated. I think the reason is that some people find you pompous, self important, condescending and basically Up your own arse. Sorry for that TORRENT of abuse, just my observation. You are trying really hard to sit at the top table of the CL Royalty aren't you?
    Why didn't you stay on NOT606 and argue your point? What were you doing on there anyway? If you have a problem with posters on NOT606 have it out with them, rather than flouncing back on here and moaning about it.
    Rant over.

    You don't get it do you. I find it actually quite funny, and a bit sad. I was shocked at first because your mate Nick Gary (banned from here, and even ITTV) clearly has a screw loose, and needs help. But each to their own if you enjoy that sort of thing.
    I did argue my point. I heard about the '60 year old lifelong Millwall fan thing' and explained how I was a fan between the ages of 7 and 10, but old loony tunes wasn't interested. Never let the facts spoil a good story eh. He's a keyboard warrior who even claimed to have spoken to me, when he hasn't.
    And I'm guessing you were the one who didn't get the fish pun?

    I hope I'm not 'pompous, self important, condescending and basically Up my own arse.' If I am I'm truly sorry. Nobody's perfect.
    Well I like you.
    So do I....a lot

    Let's hope Dick doesn't live near Balham.

    Indeed. Patience is a virtue.

    WIOTOS
    Henry - if patience is a virtue I reckon we must all be saints by now!
    Bless you, brother @robinofottershaw

    Not even similar. No buttons.

    607, 608, 609...
    That's what I like to see Dave a forward thinking man, none of this 605, 604, 603 diminishing crap :wink: .
  • No idea what is said elsewhere, but please no more posts about other sites. Biting on the bait that trolls and wind-ups dangle is giving them exactly what they want and the quickest way to generate interest.

    And engaging in inter-site rivalry is probably one of the most pathetic things I think you can get with these sort of communities. No idea in this instance whether Dick is being a plum or Plum is being a dick, but don’t bring it here please.

    Agreed, we should stick to the fish puns lol

  • But takeover news..........
  • Really need a manager and a structure ASAP. The longer this drags on the crapper the season will be imo.
    For those ITK, is it likely that the Aussies already have their man lined up so the takeover announcement should also include (or be very closely followed by) a new manager being installed?

    I doubt that they would have waited this long, spent all the money on dd and not have a plan for the playing side for next season. Pretty poor if they haven’t got a plan
  • I dont trust RD as much as I don’t rust Richard Murray it does strike me as confusing though that a few months ago there was demands of one liar to talk and now another one is talking there is a ground swell not to hear

    Right now I think it’s fair to say all parties are not being totally truthful with what is being said and to whom

    And @Davidsmith has said about this having a bit longer to play out is going to be bang on the money

    so you don't trust RD and he's not being truthful yet you have been using him as your source for months, without revealing so, and in doing so have been posting stuff as if it's fact which you are now saying it hasn't been. I don't think anyone is listening now.

    Thing is large what have I posted that’s been incorrect

    Look back through everything I put was proven to be true

    Imminent I said it wasn’t and was right
    Done deal I disagreed And was right
    Fee agreed I said it wasn’t up until you asked 10 days ago
    Aussie not having the funds and James Seed contact said it was still waiting investors to sign off

    Not trusting RD is based on his in ability to run the club properly

    Not trusting RM is based on the lies he has told to so many over so long

    Now if the people who have been telling me bits and pieces had got any of the above wrong I wouldn’t have been quick to share however right now tell me what bits above have been proved wrong contrary to the popular believe that I was wrong each time I posted it
    As I’m sure we all think, passing on of info is very welcome.

    However it’s very easy to keep saying something isn’t happening until it happens
