And now a transfer embargokillerandflash said:
A lot of people have that idea as well, some get it right eventually (e.g. Leicester) but can take time (e.g. Derby)queensland_addick said:Can never understand why these super rich supposedly astute business men are prepared to spend hundreds of millions on acquiring Premiership clubs, yet overlook clubs like us who could be picked up for a song. They could spend 10 -20 million on good players and a decent manager and most likely be in the Premiership very quickly.
On the flip side, spending a fortune on a PL team can be a risk as well. For example, you have the guy who spent a fortune to buy Fulham, only for them to be relegated

We are stuck with Roly. I'm sure he sees us as a long term project.0

Realistically how much longer has Roland got left? Don't know if he has enough time for a 'long term project'0

I think like a lot of these mega rich middle Eastern types he might be thought more highly of if he spent his money on improving the living standards of his fellow countrymen, rather than throwing it into the bottomless pit of a football club.6

Mourinho I hope.braydex said:I've just been reading this and thought about posting it on here and asking fans to bombard the Jordanian with begging letters and e-mails!!!
I will personally be tracking him down on 'linkedin' to ask him to consider buying us and appointing Jose as our new manager.0 -
Quite so. What we really need is a consortium of wealthy people who are Charlton fans first and foremost. But do such people exist?ForeverAddickted said:So we dont like / want Roland cos he dont care about Charlton, now this Jordanian bloke wants to buy a Championship club and were all hoping its us he wants!!

I am probably incredibly ignorant but know nothing of this Jordanian bloke.
Is he fit and proper and I mean really rather than in a Blatter sense!0 -

Ethical practises and billionaires rarely go together. Would an Abramovich type character be OK? Charlton fans always find something to moan about. Unbelievable. This guy is never going to buy Charlton.0

If Roly was to sell up, most of you lot would have nothing to post on here!0
