  • So we know of contacts for Taylor and Bowyer declined or not signed yet and a contract for Maddison not agreed. Is this because the contracts are not good enough or the people involved are greedy or maybe a bit of both. Too early to judge but a few more and a pattern could be emerging that might be a big problem. Would be nice to see some go the right way to even things up. 
  • Tahnoon is at the same event/interview, his latest Instagram photo from an hour ago has him sitting at the same desk

  • I get Gallen will have the authority but I can't see any signings without Matt in the country he seems very hands on

    Why is the monitor facing away from the desk chair?

    Edit: that's not a suggestion for a porno in case anyone was unimpressed. 
    So we can see the Charlton badge on the screen lol

    Cant see anything be completed with Southall not even in the country how long is the flight from Abu Dhabi 
    Six to seven hours depending on which way the wind is blowing 😉.
    5 hours if I'm on the plane.
  • I'm sure he can sanction by phone.

    We are either gonna look back one day and laugh that we ever worried, or we are gonna look back to stuff like this and feel sick to our stomachs, there is no in-between.

    After his recent activity I am firmly in the glass half full camp and keeping the faith.

    I love how active and engaging he is with us
    Suit and trainers = train wa***r
    Me and the Gaffer need a meet up at TK Maxx to sort out some decent clobber, that’s a shocking set up. 
    Those trainers are about £400 lol

    Again its not about just sanctioning it, as I said Matt seems very hands on and the sort of person who wants to deal with things personally.

    You can fly to the Middle East get a nights kip (5/6 hrs)  have a meeting, fly back at lunch time and be back in the morning (our time).

    Is that a fancy box of Ferrero Rocher on the table?

    From both ends make it 4.5 hours.
  • I am not enjoying reading some of the totally unnecessary piss taking and disrespect going on here towards MS.......this is someone we (as a fan base), are trying to make a decent and long term friendly relationship with!
    This forum is sadly still shot through with distrust and cynicism from the Duchatalet era, which is leading to stupid piss taking about no socks, choice of wallpaper, office looking like a porno set and what is probably a perfectly normal and acceptable table setting in their country......and yet here we are taking the piss.
    Sorry to say, but some of you need a good kick up the arse! :/
    Classic bants. Chill.

    Yeah bring back RD and no communication ;-)
    We dont need to know every detail from behind the scenes, just that progress is actually happening.... theres a huge difference. 
    Him tweeting that he is over in the middle east for talks with our majority shareholder is his way of show us that there is stuff going on behind the scenes in my opinion and that he's not sitting around twiddling his thumbs. 
    Tweeting is twiddling his thumbs though...
  • Nice to see Steve Bridge's book has made it out there
  • Just a guess as I am totally NOT 'in the know' .. so .. 
    Southall has absolutely no say in financial matters, he is just a glorified PR man. The situation whereby there is uncertainty about Bowyer's deal, the signing of Madison and other 'unreported' deals and wheels involve money, lots of it. Only the ESI kingpins can decide on to whom and where the money goes. Southall or whoever manages the cash in SE7  is beholden to get clearance from the middle east before buying the proverbial box of paper clips. 
    Perhaps the ESI men  like to speak to their 'front man' Southall only face to face as they mistrust electronic communications media which can be tapped and/or misreported, hence Southall's to and froing to Arabia, hence the time taken to either yay or nay transfers, contracts et al .. just a guess

    Both Matt and Tahnoon were interviewed for local TV today, maybe that had been arranged beforehand and the visit wasn't specifically about transfer business and money?

    ahhh .. the plot (or theory) thickens lol .. so what else was the TV spiel about ? .. more plans and schemes ? .. dunno as I  missed the interviews

    The lord has spoken everyone, close thread!

    Laughable mate, he isn't the one rubber stamping the transfers. If he did I am sure Gallen and Co can get things done with him abroad.

    Not saying there will be any signings, but you cant dismiss it unless everyone Boywer, Gallen and Southall all away. 21st Century and all that, even then it could happen lol
