Far too much reverence towards 'Richard' I'm afraid and what appears to be acceptance of everything he has to say.
I would hope that CAST would be far more robust in their questioning of 'the conduit between the fans and the owner'. He is well aware of the consternation that is being felt by the grassroots fans yet the best he can manage if a few words of comfort.
It's about time CAST started to throw it's weight about with some transparent communication with all the major parties involved to get some clarity of the situation. They have been disappointedly quiet for the last two or three months.
Problem is, I don’t really believe anything Murray says. Or Duchatelet. And even the Aussies seem to have been giving us just half the story (the rosy picture).
Wouldn’t it be nice if the people involved actually gave a complete and joined up statement.
If those with power don't know we figured out already that we are being played then they are fools. It isn't the slightest bit subtle or credible. Duchatelet is the owner, and he doesn't give a feck about the club but only himself. No spin needed, we get it full well.
Muir has $500M in cash after the sale of The Good Guys. Other news had him making another $200M with the sale of some other assets last year.
If he is balking over a mil here or there or playing games... while the assets go out the front door.....or if somehow he is struggling to get the money together for the deal.... I am not sure I want him anymore.

There's not many times I agree with you but on this I do. I had hoped that having Muir on board we had got away from the original consortium & their funding problems....I understand that everyone has their price & you don't want to pay silly money for things, but its false economy if you piss around now over a million or two which means we are buggered for the rest of the season by not having a decent squad come August.
As for RM & his insistance that there are 2 parties still at the table.....all I can say is that he lied in February & he's lying again. No-one ITK seems to think there is anyone but the Aussies left at the table & I'm sure something would have leaked re the fit & proper test if there was. RM gets his instructions from RD & we all know what line he is peddling.
Depends what you believe with Murray. Personally I don’t believe he is not party to the details of negotiations. I suspect he knows all key details.
This. I see he's also spinning the Duchatelet story that there's a separate British consortium still involved. Does anyone actually believe that?
I don't think this British consortium ever existed. It's a negotiating trick being used by RD IMO. And yes I'm aware of the McLeish fronted bid but we all know that's a dead duck.
Kind of like when you buy a house...and you're told there's another interested party but if you bid the right amount then the house is yours...
As for The Trust meeting Murray, I would have hoped The Trust would have asked about RD's alleged comments made to the B20 that Murray would have been fine with RD retaining The Valley.
Oh dear. Based on that Murray statement it would appear the delay is due to the price still not being agreed. Is that another lie? I certainly do not believe we have more than one interested bidder.
Just seen the latest Tripadvisor review on Hotel Stayen
Dirty rooms, impolite staff & disgusting food. The rooms smelt musty and damp. The rooms were not cleaned properly. The owner looks like a tramp with yellow teeth, and his shoes had a piece of duct tape holding the sole on.
Unless these signings are free agents, or past 33, Bowyer (or anyone else connected with the club) is (officially, at least) prohibited from talking to other clubs' players, unless the clubs have agreed a fee or compensation.
So either someone at the club is negotiating fees for the purchase of players, but we haven't been told who; or Bowyer (more particularly Charlton) is guilty of tapping up.
It comes back to Duchatelet. He is asking far too much for a debt, the size of which is very largely of his own making. This due to some very poor football, player & business decisions relating to Charlton. Not that the miserable fecker will ever acknowledge that.
My concern is that Duchatelet not finding any takers will attempt to get his money back by any means necessary including sale of the Valley, which he will need to empty of supporters by underfunding the team & driving it further down the league.
Oh my fucking goodness I’ve been sat on the poxy khazi for 1.5 hrs caught up to date with all yesterday’s postings on the Ibiza rape and now the fucking wankathon takeover shit and I’ve got pins and needles and can’t stand up . The toilet seat is gonna be indented on me forever . Fuck off Charlton you poxy fucking club and leave me alone , this addicktion is proper shit fuck all highs and just wanky boring lower lows than before .
I’m so fucking knackered it hurts , I’ve got a Father’s Day class assembly in 3 hours and I’ll be asleep in it dreaming of a takeover when in reality wwe are the shittiest joke of a club going in to oblivion driven by a mad counting Belgian who is gonna get payback from me in his next life when he’s gonna be my fucking toilet and I’m gonna sit and shit on that count forever .
Edit : I’ll leave count in instead of what I meant without the o

Are they allowed to. NDAs preventing that I feel.
Sorry Jim, but I don’t buy that.
They are ok to feed you and press snippets suggesting all is fine and dandy but it’s now very clear that they hadn’t got all their ducks in a row to complete the takeover - yet.

All sides are leaking what they want out there it just depends what side of the leaking news you chose to believe the most
RM and the two consortiums still negotiating
Charlton Del Amitri day part three
“ And the needle returns to the start of the song”
It’s so easy to read how this game gets played out month after month

Brilliant!
We also need to appoint an entire staff.
What a depressing shambles....still.

Which is it Richard?
