Withdrawing the bust could strain negotiations.
Htf does that work? Are you involved in the purchase as well?!!!!
@JamesSeed can you please answer me?2 -
NLA can you stop posting rubbish like the Aussies haven't got the cssh becaise Muir obviously has. What the consortium has is a well structured business plan with budgeted investment and shared risk. If a hedge fund offered you 6% would you sink all your money in or a fraction then see how things go? Too many poor football owners fail due to open cheque bookd.8

When we hit 1000 pages I am taking a days annual leave to read the pages for people claiming to be the first page of 1001.soapboxsam said:When we hit 1000 pages can we have a 24 hr truce and a game of football before going back in our trenches and lobbing truths, half-truths, lies, and brickbats again ?

Cant force any of you guys to do anything, but I strongly advice taking a few deep breaths and putting the phone down for the evening / turning the laptop off.
It’s Saturday night, and they certainly weren’t made for this.27 -
Feck this thread
Charlton 'Fans' slagging one another off over who has the best takeover info.
Can everyone just STFU til it's done?
Cheers.10 -
"Trolls" like Dick and Stu are as Charlton as Keith Peacock.JamesSeed said:
To the trolls like Dick and Stu, this was because someone asked if Muir was still in Britain twice and I didn't see it, and then two people asked how I knew my contact, and again, I didn't see it. So I'd prefer it if people could message me, if that's ok with you. You can pop back to Nick on the other forum and tell him you had a pop at me though. I'm sure he'll be proud of you. Pathetic.JamesSeed said:If anyone wants to know anything can they put it in a message to me please.
Keith Peacock, have you heard of him before?6 -
Mate they phoned me and it's what they told me. They said the deal was close and it looked like I was doing it to support them or something, whereas it was actually a reaction to the fire sale article by Rich Crawley, which was the straw that broke the camel's back. Felt like the club was going down the tubes and I wanted to make some sort of a gesture.ElfsborgAddick said:Withdrawing the bust could strain negotiations.

Thanks to NLA and James Seed for pretending to have a row to get the page count up.
Nearly there.31 -
Then they won't buy the club. Fair enough. We'll have to wait and see.dickplumb said:

So between these three posts, including those hearing info from different sides it sounds like a decision could be made either way next week.J BLOCK said:
Something else to add to this, I was in a boozer in petts wood last night and spoke to Paul Elliott for a short while who was in there, he said he’s doing a lot of work down at Charlton and “watch next week” was his words.

Yep that’s the deadline date on certain parts for both RD’s debt removal and the Aussies final pushJamesSeed said:RodneyCharltonTrotta said:JamesSeed said:

You've been a Charlton fan 5 minutes and you're on here telling long term Charlton fans and posters every 5 minutes how to behave and think about our club.
Seriously wind your ego in.
It’s always the same shit propogsted by your leader Nick Gray. Just F off back to your sad little forum. And your middle name isn’t Charlton, unlike mine.
Get a grip. No idea what forum are you talking about and you are coming across as paranoid. Regardless of whether or not my middle name is Charlton I'm a Charlton fan and always have been.
Enjoy your 15 minutes of fame you utter oddball and pull yourself together ffs.
Back to ignore mode.
An investor connected to a British club had to pull out because of those connections. A new investor is nearly in place. They’ll be buying the club and the ground.nth london addick said:
By Jove you have hit the nail right on the SwedeBeardface said:
Muir and others have plenty of money, they're not struggling to fund the takeover themselves - they don't want to. The investors have pooled their funds to spread the risk. Buying a 3rd division football club and taking it to the Premiership is a high risk strategy that has a good chance of failing. By getting a consortium in place the potential losses and gains are diluted - reducing the risk. I think Swansea did something similar very successfully and only declined when the consortium sold (though I might be wrong on that bit). They were certainly considered a very well run club for a number of years.NapaAddick said:We've been wondering why Muir would be having any trouble putting the money together for this. What if HE is the one the EFL disallowed and the rest of the consortium are trying to put the money together to salvage the takeover?
If what we are hearing about two investors being declined by the EFL is true, then I expect a number of conversations in the background are happening re whether the other investors will stump up more cash (and therefore increase their risk exposure), whether they can find new investors to replace the funding, or whether RD will lower the price and therefore reduce the risk to the same levels previously accepted. To do this RD may decide to invest further in Charlton and clear the first charge debts on the assets (£7mil) in order to lease the valley and training ground as a long term revenue stream to compensate for a lower sale price than he finds acceptable. This seems a logical step for both parties if they can't find the right funding and risk exposure, even if it is a truly unpalatable thought for us fans.
You have posted it in a much better way than I have tried to

Getting lots of people saying I need to take a chill pill. Fair enough, but actually i enjoy a scrap if I'm honest.
Let's just see how it plays out over the next seven days.
I think we can all agree that we want the sale to happen. Except my mate Stu who doesn't want the Aussies, which is his perogative.
Really looking forward to the match tomorrow. Hope the heat doesn't get to our boys.1 -
But if that falls through hopefully Theo Paphitis can help us. You will be well aware of him I imagine.JamesSeed said:
I really hope so.superdulvertonred said:Thanks JamesSeed hopefully over soon!

Please give it a rest guys....the constant sniping is really getting boring now.

It's @Stu_of_Kunming - just so we know which troll you are referring to.

Mate, we're all old gits, it's just that I'm not a very nice one ;-)Addickted said:
Because you mention 'someone wanting to know if Muir was in the UK' and then happened to mention that posters name.JamesSeed said:
If you want to identify someone, then use the #name otherwise old gits like me get confused.
I'd much rather we all met in the pub to discuss this stuff (sorry Henners and afka) and I'm sure we wouldn't get involved in these shenanigans.
But all this 'The Aussie model'stuff.... oops.3 -

Ah, the Millwall fan comment, the belief that my meeting with the Aussies was made up to attract attention to my 'clickbait blog' (which has never had an ad on it), I don't suppose you're another visitor from 606 are you elfs by any chance? Disappointing mate. Believe everything you hear on there if you want to, but it's pretty sad really.0

what date and time is this deadline? Next week doesn’t suffice.nth london addick said:And the deadline is next week for many things including your kids mates dads mob to find the cash or the only other alternatives are to walk away or like they asked RD if they can lease the groundxand training ground
Now nothing you post again will hold water because you hold back all your info and only let out what you think will buy you and the Aussies credibility
Shame on you sir
