    I think it’s become increasingly clear in the last few months that myself @AFKABartram , @nth london addick , @DOUCHER @i_b_b_o_r_g and Colin are the five bright young individuals forming the ‘New Order’ when it comes to being In The Know on the Charlton scene. I don’t think collectively through our network of contacts home and abroad we’ve called a single thing wrong in this saga yet.

    Already we’ve been working behind the scenes with RTM and I’m proud to say ‘Charlton Thrive with the Famous Five’ will be hitting the Sunday night airwaves come August, and two of us have secured regular columns in The Mercury and the Bexley Leader for the 18/19 season.

    Hoping there are many more privileges to come. Times up old boys.

    Pretty sure Colin and NLA have got more right than anyone else on the thread?
    Thing is that Colin comes out with so much stuff gleaned from regurgitated media sources and then claims or at least gives the impression that he is the originator of such disclosures through his ‘source’.
    Didn’t he recently claim he had a neice who worked in the solicitors offices that were dealing with the takeover......if you believe that, then you’ll believe anything!

    You are out of order. Colin runs this show, you could have at least let him have the honour of writing that.

    But they have been saying the opposite to one another.
    Except the 'show me the money' debate. It was never about lack of funds. The delays have been because of issues from the pre Roland era. And because there are various members of the consortium, there has had to be signing off on individual issues, which takes time. The consortium has far more money available to them than the relatively small sum required to buy Charlton.
    They very clearly had funding problems at the start of their venture.

    Was that this current consortium (Muir Mark2), or the original consortium you’re referring to?
    Since Muir has been the main mover and shaker I am puzzled as to how folk are still saying money is the problem......it’s only a problem if he is drawing a line under the amount that he personally is prepared to stump up.
    Left to him there’s enough to buy us several times over.....so how is lack of wonga an issue.....it beats me?

    If u could tell us one thing I've got wrong u may regain a grain of credibility - if not just accept that you cannot always be right and move on

    I don't know who Colin is but it sounds like he probably had differing info to the oracles on here and that of course is not on.

    Actually, they’re taking part in the ride, but swore me to secrecy.

    FWIW, Colin is now saying that the EFL is waiting on documents about the new investors, and it could take 7 to 10 days for everything to be completed.

    Don't shoot the messenger!

    I've never claimed to always be right, that was you. All I've ever said is WIOTOS.

    Neither do I need, unlike you, to gain or retain credability. It's just an internet forum, it doesn't matter and I don't need the vindication.

    But since you asked on 22 December and for months before you denied there was any takeover talks and that no due diligence had taken place or was happening.

    On 29 December, four working days later, the club announced that the club was in the process of being sold. You weren't mentioning your sold in two years mantra then either.

    You then asked how long due diligence took as if it had been done over Xmas by two different parties.

    Anyway, I'm sure 98% of lifers just want the takeover to happen asap and care very little about petty squabbles or point scoring.

    Over and out.

    Well done young master Julian. I shouldn't be surprised if you kids end up running the club one day.

    A guess that 90% of us could come up with but which he infers he’s been told.
    A guess that if it doesn’t materialise he will, like always, conveniently forget and if it does happen will shamelessly take the credit for ‘being in the know.’
    Over and over and over again.....the same old routine.

    James seed what are the Aussies worth then £m?.

    I only know what I’ve read here. Muir £500m+ is it? I don’t know who else is in the consortium. Forgot to ask, but I’m quite sure my friend of a friend of a friend etc wouldn't have told me if I had.

    I will stop posting honest, but for now I’m in a hotel near the velodrome in readiness for an early start, and I’ve got nothing better to do.
    Really sorry to hear that @Ollywozere has had to pull out of the ride, was looking forward to chat.
