    Do we know what sort of dough Dalman has ?
    Is he a Gerard Murphy type who puts it all together or is he super duper rich enough to spunk dough on buying a football club for ego 
    I'm not sure I've heard anyone 100% certain Dalman has more money than sense or is he more Tony Jiminez than Sheikh Mansour
    We know he had enough money that he was personal friends with Muammar Gaddafi and almost bankrolled MG’s purchase of ManU. Makes me think he has enough money to work our well for us.
    He wasn’t the buyer it was MG who was from what I have read .

    so once again he’s the fluffer 

    yes he he has contacts , so did Jiminez , so does Gerard Murphy and so did Peter Risdale .

    I’m still not sure what Mehmet brings “cash” wise to the table

    Yes, that is what I meant. Dalman has a lot of money, but it is his access to money that is even more substantial. He has his hands in many banks and thus many potential bankers.

    Source?

    According to the unreliable interweb Tan is worth USD820 million 

    So maybe less than Andrew Muir who we "know" doesn't have the money.

    Nowhere near Tan. £100m on paper but likely to be much less disposable. Not enough to do the job completely and I he wouldn't risk everything on a punt like us. He is a banker and will have additional investors.

    That’s my take. He’s clearly rich but not super rich, nowhere near Roland level. His whole background has effectively been working for rich clients and I can’t see anything obvious where he has cashed out, nor any indication that he is a personal spender on a major scale. I could be wrong but I suspect his purchase approach to be similar to the Aussies.

    And here lies our biggest problem. 

    Everyone that seems to want to buy us, probably won't have the funds to give us stability let alone challenging for play offs

    I can’t see Dalman buying us without the funding to make it worthwhile. He’s worked in football long enough to know you can’t break even, never mind make a profit from just staying in the Championship.

    Agreed. The only person who would buy us without the funds to be competitive in the Championship would be a lifelong Charlton fan with more money than sense. Nobody buys a loss making business with the intention of continuing to run it at a loss.

    That’s not what I’m saying. I don’t believe any of them will be buying without funding lined up to make it viable. How that funding is achieved though is a different story.

    Can't Dalman and the Aussies just buy the club together and get this done.

    Aussies need extra investment, Dalman isn't rich enough to buy us on his own.

    Come on lads, get your shit together and get rid of the Belgian prick.

    To be fair I'd take stability in the Championship even if it means we cant challenge for the Play-Offs

    Even if it means the likes of Lapslie and Morgan etc. get sold in the future I wont mind, provided that its for what they're worth and that money gets put back into the squad and invested properly

    An approach pretty much like what Brentford and Bristol City are doing these days

    like how Curbs built the club. I would be very very happy to go back to that model and be the championship for 8 odd years building.

    I'd honestly be happy to stay in the Championship now for the majority of my life

    If only it meant we could finish top two or end up winning the Play-Offs without being promoted I'd be quite happy
