Not being a billionaire I don't know quite how it works, but couldn't Muir just say, 'Don't worry lads. I've got this', and put his hand in his pocket.4

Without the ground and training ground, isn't the club basically worthless? You still cover the losses, seems a bad deal all round.2

Also Muir must have the money, he just doesn't want to spend it or he doesn't have enough of his assets in cash.
Nb if true we may well be better off under RD, because if the Aussies can't afford to buy us they can't afford to run us and then we actually could end up in administration.3 -

This always annoys me when people try it. Like can't you count.

We are losing 13 mil a season in this league will cost a fair few to get us out
The loses in the champ are approx 5-8
To get out will cost a fair few more
Maybe he only wants a % of the risk and why not he has earned his money its only right he watches it carefully4 -
So, are you suggesting that The Valley and the training ground would equal this magic £15 million shortfall since the Greek / two investors were pulled up by the EFL? And so then why would anyone buying, knowing all the current sh*t we've been through (and obviously the 80s) think it's a good idea to do that? Not only would the fans instantly hate them, it goes against their apparent ideals highlighted in the joint statement. They've got to be real f**kwits to think having RD as a landlord is a good idea. Or if the plan is to lease to buy, then why not do that internally? Eg, one or two (or more) of the consortium buy that bigger stake and eventually sell it back to the rest? They must know that we'd be in them like a rash if RD was anywhere near come the takeover.
Baffles me. Can it be true? Well who knows, none of this makes sense. I hate it, we all do. It'll end. It won't end us.8 -
But if he’s been working on this for so long, why didn’t this occur to him/them before?nth london addick said:

What worries me is that they came in with the right intentions, but the more they found out about the finances of English football, the more it put them off.
But two years work, and £1m spent? For them to start penny-pinching right at the end?
You know what. Something doesn’t add up here.5 -
Yes, it's been obvious for a long time that Muir only wants a % of the risk.nth london addick said:

I reckon the additional investors they went off to talk to a few weeks back didn't stump up.
Baring in mind there has always be a question mark over whether they had the funding, I don't understand why the Scots, Saudis et al were allowed to walk away.2 - Sponsored links:

1 million spend is a significant amount to spend and shouldn’t be sniffed at but
We also know that atleast two others also done DD
Let’s just say I am certain none of us know all the answers and that there has been a lot of false dawns and info
But if the Aussies don’t find the investors before a given date the next move they make is a buy the name and players and rent the ground and training ground until such a time they have the cash or they sell up to some other punter and he buys it back
Alternatively a second club could be sold we have RD till then and then we get a proper take over0 -
I really shouldn't have read this before I went to bed. I'm going to have nightmares now!4

FFS,when is this misery going to end??0

I’m hoping to hear something directly of course, (but may well hear nothing), but in the meantime isn’t it ultimately the case the Roland has massively overvalued the club, and it’s getting increasingly difficult to get backers/investors to buy into the project?
Especially bearing in mind all the crap that was unearthed during DD.
This looks very grim.
Thanks for the info though @nth london addick2 -
Yes, I think RD has overvalued the club if the price is still around the £40M level, but if someone is willing to pay he's laughing.
If they are willing to buy the club and he retains The Valley and training ground he's double laughing.
I think I'd prefer them to not proceed on that basis. I'd rather they wait until they have the money or let someone else buy that has the money.
They've been around for 1/2 years now and if they haven't raised the funds by now, I'm not optimistic that they can and run the club successfully.9 -
£15 million divided by 27000 is roughly £556. If only we could fill The Valley and have a whip round.
It worked for Ronnie Moore.2 -
As someone above just said, if they buy the club without either The Valley or Sparrows Lane then they can walk as far as I'm concerned. In fact, if it doesn't go through lock, stock & barrel by the end of this month they can fuck off....and once they get there they can fuck off some more.
Twat of a bloke turning up, buying a scarf & lording it like the deal was done. Sorry @jamesseed.....you can tell them my patience has finally run out........and that they're cheating bastards & without their sandpaper they're going to lose 5-0.4 -
None of this adds up based on the rumors from either side.
Roland wants to sell we’re told. He has, again based on what’s been said here, two bidders, and the essentially offered the same bid - £40.5m I think I saw.
For whatever reason, something happened for the Saudi group to walk away at that point. Presumably either Roly accepted the Aussies over the Saudis at that price, or Roly got them to offer more. Either way, Roly appears to have picked the Aussies as his winning bid.
Now he says they don’t have the money. Did they have money, and suddenly don’t? That’s what’s the Roland side wants to put this out as. In which case Roly is an even bigger fool than I thought, unless the forged the proof of funds he should have demanded.
Or, did they come back and say that as the last bidder standing, and no signed deal, they want a price reduction. Which is different from not having the money, it’s back to not wanting to overpay.
So which one is it? Are the Aussies playing hardball, or did Roly choose the wrong bidder?3 -
Him selling the club but keeping the ground = the end.8

I actually don't know what's worse. RD staying on for another year, cost cutting and flogging any player worth any value for cash discounts leading us towards League Two or being owned by The Aussies but with RD as landlord. Both scenarios only point to a very bleak future for us and if that's all The Aussies can now do then they're not for me. If The Aussies are to buy us it must be lock stock and barrel as Murray told us back in January.5
