    Otherwise it's tomorrow.
    Or even the day after.

    Remember the old sign in nearly every pub bar, "Free Beer Tomorrow" ?
    So you turn up next day to claim your free pint, and the landlord points to his sign and says, "Sorry, free beer tomorrow".

    We need to put up a sign that says, "Charlton Takeover Tomorrow".

    ;o)

    I can`t help thinking that the current negotiations are not the same ones that started out all those months ago. I suspect that the deal we were all expecting about a month ago fell through and we are now running again with a different party. On that basis any deal is probably some time off. How this impacts on the Bailey, Fortune scenario is I think a little worrying. They won`t wait too many more weeks before getting themselves sorted I would imagine.
  • 2 options, we go into admin and the 'takeover' happens by the end of the week
    we stay as we and it meanders into meaninglees bollox with the accountants and law men filling thier bank accounts.
    either way , we are not being 'takenover' this is more of a shift of power, can you relly see someone with pots of cash putting it into us ? I hope im worng !!!

    Oooh I wanna add to this. My dad spoke to his friend who does matchday electric at the valley and they're waiting on a payment as was told that today would be the day.

    Having said that, I doubt if there was an offer announced or a takeover, suppliers wouldn't get paid immediately as surely money wouldn't go through immediately and I'm sure directors have stuff to do rather than sign cheques.

    Right well that's me a signed up member of the potential bullshit rumour gang.

    I'll add to that. Somebody I have known only by name, who is well connected to both Charlton and in my industry told me that today is the day that the final offer will be tabled - take it or leave it....

    Blimey - if the takeover doesn't happen we can't pay the electricity bill!

    Hmmm, yourself and Suzi really aren't part of the silly rumour brigade so I tend to put a bit of credence in this. Still best and final offers are rarely best or final.

    Remember if you "over hear" anyone or "see a businessman" don't be shy.

    Go up and say. "Oi!, is you taking over the club or what?"

    Don't forget my offer guys and gals....a bottle of Moet for the first poster on here to name the takeover person or organisation....AFTER it has been officialy anounced either on the club web site or at a press conference.
    I can't acccept a winner prior to that of course because it would be deemed as either hearsay, insider knowledge or a guess.
    Prize to be collected prior to first home game of the season in The Con Club.
    I realise that this offer will obviously put certain posters at an advantage....but we can't have it all ways....anyway it's just a bit of fun.
    Good luck!
    SoundAs.

    Oh come on raz......there's been a zillion scoops................it's a bit of harmless fun for the first poster to put up the genuine acredited info on here....after all the non starters that poster would gain a little bit of 'legendary status' on the board.....and could genuinely say...."You heard it here first folks!"
