    Pudding or dessert?

    It’s definitely afters.
  • I think Muir already dismissed the feeder club angle. They want to tap into the potential fanbase of Aussies working here, visitors and eventually the interest in the Prem at home. They want the Addicks to be the go to side for anyone from down under. Aussie stars here will be a bonus.

    And what you meant to do if you detest Aussies?

    This'll be page 970 btw
    Therapy ?

    Mate, I should give it a rest now.

    The thing you don’t like about the Sussie model?!? You don’t know what the model is. They’ve already said it’s not going to be an Aussie nursery club.

    You don’t really know about their finances either. It’s fine to speculate but don’t present it as fact when you don’t know for sure.

    I’d ignore your mate for a bit, relax, and wait for it to happen, or not happen, and take it from there. There’s a World Cup on you know, it’s quite good.
    No, don't give it a rest, NLA. Thanks for keeping us in touch with what is going on.
    I'm more interested in this sussie lady

    Can a Pot Noodle be eaten as lunch or dinner/supper?

    Pudding served with a nob of Carte D’or

    The three meals you can eat each day are either breakfast, lunch and dinner, in that order; or breakfast, lunch and supper, in that order.

    Dinner is never served in the middle of the day.

    Yes is a drink not a meal. Although you can have sandwiches, biscuits, cake or bread and jam with tea.

    Fact.

    If you're working class and from the midlands or north, you may well eat breakfast, dinner and tea, in that order.
    Well that's what I have always eaten but I ain't from the Midlands or oop North. I was born and bred on Coldharbour Estate.

    Great post as per normal

    See there’s one thing I don’t like about the Aussie model and that is that it is too similar to the RD Belgian dream but using Australian links to fulfil our quota of players

    I certainly could have put that aside and watched it all unfold and give it the benefit of the doubt but there’s something telling me that there is more to it than that

    The thing that troubles me with the cash issue is that had the EFL not pulled up the duel football issue and the club would’ve been sold at the agreed price before last Sunday’s cut off

    There’s also the issue that @Davidsmith has once again pointed out and that @Airman Brown has agreed is taking place and that is the deal with the ex directors is currently being sought this can be for one of two reasons

    To facilitate a deal where the ground and training ground can be used separately by RD as a revenue stream and to hold us hostage like Coventry

    Or the debt is needed to be removed to facilitate the sale without changing down the asking price


    All signs that the Australian consortium do not have the required pool of cash to help us regain a decent foothold in divisions higher than we currently are


    @Davidsmith like myself has mentioned and believe that there is still British interest and it has not gone away from the very beginning

    I personally am hoping that this can be held up by the directors not selling up unless a group or an individual wealthy enough and experienced enough in uk football with a real concept and understanding of how to get us out of this predicament

    If the Aussies win and RD is gone then that will only be a good thing because a real enemy will be gone that we both agree


    The rest is going to be a watch this space as something doesn’t sit right






    Long post for NLA, has anyone seen Grapevine & NLA in the same room?
    If we all keep quoting this post quickly we can get to 1000 pages and then we can all get on with our summer without all this anxiety ;-)

    Stressing too many people out, if we get a "we are sold" statement on page 998 and a brand new thread .... Armageddon awaits for sure.

    Oh the irony!
    Repetition. No deviation though, granted.

    I think people are posting more cause were near to 1000 - I'd never do that

    Nor would I...
  • CH4RLTON said:

    Whats the big obsession with the number of post? Have I missed something? So what if it reaches 1,000 pages.

    That's when it all happens.

    Which you accept could just be spin?
  • What I’m really failing to comprehend is that if there truly is a second British consortium still in the running. What on Earth is stopping them from getting ahead of the Australian’s who have been falling short for reasons that are largely unclear for weeks and possibly months.

    because there isn't one.......or at least not one that is credible. RM doesn't want to lose his seat at the top table so is trying to cobble together some friends with money to help him out.

    Is that some kind of filthy euphemism?.
