I am really bored rigid with the Takeover. Will it happen or not? Have they got enough money? Is it with the EFL. I am out, won't be looking at this thread again.

as has been said by lots of peeps if RD appoints the CEO/CFO then the deal is off, assuming it was ever "on".We will see a fire sale and a couple of has beens in and our slide will go on. RD will go for some sort of sale of the carp park area at The Valley and go in hard ---offer LB Greenwich "affordable housing" blah blah.
sick to fecking death with it all.
I feel this is what will happen.
please dont be right ..and if @sethplum, that was a deliberate fish pun i am ashamed of you
If I inadvertently wrote a fish pun I didn't intend to (nor do I see it reading back). What I do know is that Duchatelet has sucked the marrow of hope from my very bones and if he continues all I want is to find a manageable way to make his life hell. Petty, but there it is.
you wrote carp park
so it it was shame on me apologies..serves me right for trying to be clever

I'm starting a self-help group for fans who can't stop looking at this thread.

Out of respect to Steve Irwin, a fellow Antipodean and (ex) countryman of our alleged new owners, we should be ashamed of ourselves. That man tragically died at the hands (or dorsal spike) of a fish!
IMHO, those doubting that they have the money are being very very pessimistic. Much more to the point is are they prepared to spend it? Goldfinger has enormous wealth but simply isn’t interested in spending any of it once it was obvious that the multi club ‘experiment ‘ wasn’t working. He has the money to take us on an incredible journey but as he simply was never really interested in doing so he firmly shut his wallet. There is a lot of wealth available (‘on paper’ one might say), from the Oz guys. The real question is, are they prepared to dig deep beyond the task of simply buying the club......only time will tell but I’m positive the money is there if that’s what they choose to do. Muir himself is a very wealthy man but how deep is his pocket re this project? How wealthy are the other investors and how much are they too prepared to put in is yet to be revealed?
All the way through this process and all the way through the aussies involvement I was told they don’t have the funds , everything that person has told me has so far been bang on the money
I agree that there’s a difference in not signed off and no money but I believe the info
Since zabeel I have been sceptical of all investors or prospective owners and this is no different things leak out that is the nature of football some solid info and some shite this is pointing towards solid info at the moment because they have shown me nothing to make the info false
Fair enough point mate, but I would also suggest that most people have no idea how much money the Aussies have or are willing to spend
They have enough to have spend £1m so far over nearly two years.
which is a mere drop in the ocean compared to what will be needed to make us even a competitive Championship club.
My point was regarding NLA's fear that they don't have enough. I doubt anybody, including the Aussies themselves can predict what will be spent as things change and it's dependant on other factors too.
I would be of the solid opinion that they have enough money to make us competitive, and I would imagine at the very least would make the effort initially just to get the fans onboard.
Now I may well be completely wrong here but I read James comments about the 2 investors differently.
It came across to me that they still had to sign off on the final price/deal/ terms of agreement with Roland. Not that they still had to sign up to the project. I assume they are already on board with the project to buy us but at that point hadn't given their go ahead on the final agreement.
Surely it wouldn't have got this far without proof of funds.

The point is they spent that much just to be able to put a bid in. They know how much will be needed to make us competitive, rather than just survivors. Gone are the days when the fella who owned the local garage would buy his local football club for the prestige, or because he's a fan.

Correct. They just had to sign off on a couple of details.
So...who do u feel will be the S kipper next season?
Paul Shoals will be Manager. David Gold (fish) will be on the board. Mike Salmon in goal trying to keep them out the net.
personally our squad should be as follows... Mark Fish, Steve Guppy, Geoff Salmons, Peter Haddock, Bert Trautmann, Geoff Pike, Jamie Pollock, Juan Pablo Angel, Marlin Harewood, Ruud Mullet, Prawn Wright Phillips, Dirk Trout, and manager Clam Allardyce.

I'd be looking to bring back Tamer Tuna, Levander Pike and Bradley Pilchard for a more Charlton feel.

This needs looking into.
Shame CL

Net Addicks has a nice ring to it.
