Done deal. Imminent. FFS
I think some people are so desperate for this to happen they are not seeing the wood for the trees.0 -
So basically, sounds like the Aussies have agreed a price, other potential buyers still could as well.6

I’ll stick to my estimation of 15 June.

Right, so you don't know.Airman Brown said:
I’m not saying because I am not 100 per cent confident of the answer. The Australian camp leaks. One source yesterday was from that side. The other came from the legal process - they are consequently very well placed to know when they say it’s a “done deal”, but they have never been willing to elaborate on the identity of the interested parties.Redskin said:
Fascinating: who's actually buying the club, or are you not in a position to say as usual?Airman Brown said:
In any event the FL have to approve the deal. You could argue it isn't done until that has happened but what I am taking about is the point at which a buyer and seller reach agreement. We have not been here before.eaststandmike said:Sorry to put a downer on all your enthusiasm but am I the only one who is still a bit apprehensive to the news announced yesterday?
Apart form 3 or 4 tweeted messages suggesting we have a "done deal" we have nothing else to go on apart from what we have always had in this thread i.e. speculation, jokes and piss taking.
Surely if a deal was "done" yesterday, by that I mean a hand shake between all parties then we would have heard more. As with all deals like this nobody is interested when the lawyers get the paperwork signed, all we what we want to see is the new owner with a Charlton scarf round his neck.
I am sure a lot of us have heard of, or experienced the sale of a house falling through on the day the new buyer was supposed to move in or a business deal collapsing at the last minute.
I get the feeling we are not as close as some people think and looking at the excitement those tweets have generated on here some people seem to be getting ahead of themselves.
I hope I am way off the mark and scarfy is paraded soon, however as a boycotter I refuse to consider what game I will be attending next until the sale of the club is signed, sealed and the new owner has revealed him/herself.
One insurance against the deal failing to reach completion is that there are clearly two potential buyers here and consequently I don't think there's much chance of both walking away/falling through.
The coincidence of the two, entirely independent of each other, within hours, points to the Australians, but because the Aussie side have jumped the gun before I am still cautious about saying it is them. And I still believe the other party is about.6 -

Look on the brightside people... Its clear that Roland should be gone by the summer - thats the only time we need him gone because until the transfer window opens there is nothing he can do.
A deal has been agreed with one party so we should have new owners soonish, and a new party are refusing to go away - That says to me that both really want the club, and says that neither will mess around with the club like Roland has.6 -

Rick said a exclusivity deal had been arranged by one of the parties. Can't see that being the case if someone else has just jumped in?0

Imminent equals about to be done, deal done equals done. Have I got a different vocabulary to other posters on here? If RedHenry is saying that the other party are still interested then deal equals not done.9

Shock horror it's not a done deal then lol lol lol gullible lot wait until it's on the official site0
-
Hold on. I've always had the impression that RedHenry's group weren't the British ones, so if his group are still involved does this mean that the other (non-Australian) Muir has disappeared? Or are we heading back to 'three parties still involved'?0

Do you genuinely know who these people are RH?Redhenry said:One of the parties was at the club today. This has got at least another week to run.

Lads lets keep it simple.
ROUND ONE
Two sofas on the pitch, first set of owners to destroys theirs - Gets one hundred points
ROUND TWO
Each set of owners get a dozen large bags of; taxis / stress balls / pigs... The side who throws the most on the pitch in three mins wins the round - the score being how many items are thrown.
If the scores are level at the end, we have a tie breaker where each new CEO is given a long spear, the one who kills Roland first (who for sporting reasons will be given a plastic knife from McDonalds) wins the club!!2 -
It all changes tonight when I win Euromillions.2

We clearly have to be patient in relation to the details, but I am confident that we won't have Duchatalet in charge for very much longer. That will do for me for now.10

We'll know who the owner is when the club announce it, the rest is jank.2

If a price is agreed then Roland’s end is nigh and that’s a good enough way to start my weekend!5
