  • Just heard through a mate that the Aussies have pulled out and an Israeli with a lot of money is now the front runner he’s not even a Charlton fan but is normally in the know with things like this... hope it’s wrong as no doubt that won’t exactly be soon.
  • From now on, nobody post anything but cold, hard takeover-related FACT. Two corroborating sources minimum.


    Starting... from....... now!

    Only if it's happened in the last 24 hours, otherwise I'd say it's not true

    Just had a text from someone who knows Donald’s son, he said it’s all going through and Donald will be on the board, Trying to find out more info.

  • Is this thread now the official CL "wrist slitting" thread?

    No, everyone just keep a stiff upper lip, have a large G & T and remember the old adage "When it's on the OS"

    Club is 113 years old on 9 June. Another week or month is a drop in the ocean compared to the time the club has existed.

    Beginning to think this takeover will take 113 years.

    But then the Aussies are a patient bunch.

    Maybe. But another week or a month has a HUGE effect on what we do over the course of the next year.

    Agree completely and I want it done ASAP for that very reason but the club will survive and maybe even thrive long term if and when it has proper owners again.

    Been a long hard and "bumpy ride" ever since the spivs made a "distressed" sale to Duchatelet but it is nearly at end.

    Steady the Buffs.
  • Here's an idea for the NEXT rumour thread. When anyone brings a rumour to the table we discuss it's validity and likelihood to the Nth degree, but anyone who tries to shoot the messenger gets a short ban. Or a stern telling off.

    If I ever did have a rumour I just wouldn't post it due to the potential flak that seems to come the way of anyone who does.

    Well they went as far as speaking to a big law firm in London to broker the deal I know that much, my mates convinced ( Australian Muir ) has pulled out but text that info to a friend and he’s heard it’s still going through and will be done before the World Cup so who knows, just passing on info have no reason to lie.

    From my reckoning only me and NLA have been 100 per cent right so far although I'm sure many will disagree - not that it matters. It will happen.

    If it doesn't matter why keep saying it?

    What have I reported that's been wrong btw? The Aussies thought end of May, but they also said they're patient.

    They also said they have money, and you or NLA haven't proved that they haven't.

    Your mate saying he thinks they haven't isn't proof.
    I thought you said you didn’t discuss finances at your meeting?

    (Not an attempt to discredit you - just slightly confused as to what’s fact and what’s interpretation).

    JamesSeed. You say that we're all enjoying this thread in our own way. Sorry, but that is utter rubbish. How you can say that whilst the future of CAFC hangs by a thread (no pun intended) is beyond me.

    I didn’t mean that we’re enjoying the situation, I mean we’re devouring any relevant info like starving men.

    When I said ‘the window is open’, the fella shrugged and said they’ve already spent two years and a million quid on this. It’s a long term project. Patience etc.
    I’ve also heard via a friend on CL that transfer negotiations are going on in the background while things are being sorted with the sale. No idea if that’s still the case.

    This is all really frustrating. Was really hoping there’d be an announcement when Muir gets back. Maybe there still will be.
    Damn you @DOUCHER !
    Don't blame me Johnny. I don't blame you for posting what you did last week or so either. We all just post what we have heard in good faith. It wasn't the positive news I was hoping for obviously but lets see what happens next week I guess but I'm certainly of the understanding that it is not, at the moment, a done deal.
    It’s Jimmy
    Cabbles look whats happening!!!!!! :smiley:
    Who?

    He meant bobbles.
    Sorry chaps, it’s love island season. The takeover will have to wait

    So, possible the takeover is delayed.

    Meanwhile STs go back on sale on 11 June.

    Just a co-incidence, or Duchatalet still looking to squeeze more money out of his CAFC tenure?

    He isn't getting another penny out of me.

    I’m not sure I see a link. RD clearly wants shot, they’ve been no suggestion from any of the sources or recordings that isn’t the case, and in relation to a £30/40m deal, a handful of ST money adding up to no more than a few k is not really going to be a factor.
    Its not a factor....any sales of season tickets already paid and any corporate sponsorship money will be passed on to the new owners. You can put this to bed as 2Shits wont benefit from forward sales of the above unless he doesnt sell......then the meagre amount of revenue will get swallowed up in his monthly debt.
