            Hearing that new investor may be in place.
Funding for 5 year plan has been key, as they always said.
Never been a problem with buying the club. Funding had to be arranged for 5 year plan.
Hence investor had to be in place.
If investor was needed just to buy the club then we would indeed have problems as some have said.56 -

In place as in agreed to be involved or they did that ages ago and have passed EFL approval and so actually good to go? I imagine the former.JamesSeed said:Hearing that new investor may be in place.

Tell that to Liege after he started their fire sale. (and lost us Bulot as a result)ShootersHillGuru said:Dazzler21 said:
The club are off to Portugal for a training camp - Something happened to earn that sign off.soapboxsam said:Nothing happens. Nobody comes, nobody goes, it's awful.
Lyle Taylor has come in - Someone authorised his purchase.
Harry Lennon and several others have gone out - Someone authorised his sale
I can't help but hope that these moves are being orchestrated by someone intending to buy the club...
I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you buy CAFC
Bowyer does have a budget. Yes Taylor would have to be signed off but at present the departures of Konsa, Kashi and Lennon plus the wages of the loans are being saved and that money is what Bowyer has to play with. At present he’s in credit. I’m not saying that he will have all that wages money available but even RD is not stupid enough to think you can let 9 players leave and not replace at least some.

            On the overseas trip, RD limited the budget to £20k, which is why they struggled with it. They either managed to find a way of doing it for £20k or the budget went up.
There is a (reasonable) view that Robinson wasted money last year going to Ireland twice.9 -

They’re top and tailing in the twin rooms too so they’ve only needed to book 3-rooms to squeeze everybody who is still at the club incafcwill said:

            To the tune of Billy Joel, we didn't start the fire
Doucher, Duchatelet, how much will the Aussies pay
Sparrows Lane, James Seed, 1000 pages on my feed
Ezri Konsa, Redskin, patience is running thin
North Greenwich, the Peninsula, has this thread gone too far
Elfsborg, Red Henry’s wrong, nth London addick sings a different song
In the know, the price too high, Napa can’t multiply
J Block, breakthrough, Roland needs a new shoe
Ibborg, Blackpool, Roland you are a tool
We can’t sell the club, it’s been on the market, and he’ll sell our next starlet
We can’t sell the club, The Aussies want to buy it, the EFL will fight it
Done deal, Airman Brown, Hackett Fairchild going down
Donald Muir, he’s not poor, Roland can you reduce the price a little more
Russell Slade, Lewis Page, Colin’s on the rampage
Hashtag not a penny more, Roland’s on the dance floor
Rubashow, press release, KAG questioned by police, Roland brush your teeth
Essex Al, on the prowl, onward to 2000 pages now, Airman is our sacred cow
Chris Powell, Harry Kewell, Gomez got sold to Liverpool
Checkatrade, hopes fade, how much longer for this whole charade

- thought Polish Pete and Reza were adequate replacements for Yann
- appointed Katrien Meire
- paid Roger Johnson's wages on 2 separate occasions
- thinks {...} is part of the English Language
- made a teenager/early 20's man child Charlton's 'chief scout'/ head of the network scouting team
- Paid money for Bergdich
- thought Charlton fans wanted the club to fail because we protested about HE was running the club
have i missed anything?
Regardless, the man broke the mould with Stupid decisions
