    All gone quiet maybe the rumoured second bidder is going through DD? Or maybe the whole thing has fallen apart

    @henrythecat Probably a takeaway being delivered for the latest Due Diligence working party who are burning the midnight oil.........oops, shouldn't have mentioned that :-0
  • I've just seen some Chinese folk near Charlton.

    just say....

    It was probably just me and my mum, Henrythecat.

    This thread must be like the internet version of heroin... I know it's not good for me but I just can't help myself.

    Actually Henry they are Singaporean Chinese and work for Temasek Holdings. I had a word with them last week and told them charlton was in dire need of a Kopi stall.

    Funny you should say that. I had a totally sleepless night and can confirm that from my flat overlooking The Valley looking across into the West Stand there were many lights burning all night long, as is not unusual in recent weeks. They will need this takeover just to pay some king-size energy bills ....
  • Addicks..I've done a lot of research on this one. Don't know how to copy and paste link here, but go to YOUTUBE and enter search for Apollo's Joshua Harris interview as there is a 33 minute interview of this Billionair Fella by an American wall street guy.
    Apollo Global Management and I must say he seems a pretty clever investor and I've changed my mind on this one...hope it's still
    on Due Diligence and not just a rumour. Land Registry has eight owners for Sparrows Lane. Would be great if we could get this one in my view. Richard Murray down at Gatwick probably knows as he's still involved. Company has texas, L.A two in New York
    offices. London, Luxembourg, Germany. Singapore, Mumbai, and others. Don't know if a personal interest or Company buy out.
    I do have R.M's email address and number of his P.A. Been ill with flu or something but if I get time, I'll try to check it out soon.
    How about Curbs coming back to share or advise with C.P. if it happened as an xmas pressie?
    Can't believe this is a cruel rumour and no more.

    Get onto YouTube now...interesting Guy who owns the Philadelphia 76ers and the New York ice hockey outfit.
    Google wiki to see their acquisitions around the globe too.

    they were just a couple of students, but they were near Charlton. Thought I would share the information. isn't that the point of this thread?

    My guess is TJ moved the goalposts at the last moment thinking things were far enough along that he could squeeze a couple more million out for himself and his buddies. It's happened before with bidding for players and changing the offer last minute. Hopefully something will happen by new year.

    Don't tell me ........ "I had a guest called Hank with me at a game, and then these takeovers rumors started" - Even if I knew what he was saying to be 100% true, I still wouldn't trust it when it came out of his mouth

    On the CAS Trust website there is a headline saying

    "CAFC Chairman says 5 year plan still in place, despite interest no Takeover imminent.
    While at a Q&A last night for East Kent BTTV21, he went on to predict Charlton would finish just below mid table."

    No more than that and nothing re players and managers contracts although whether this came up the article doesn't say. Not very helpful really.

    honestly people, we get a scoop, put it straight on here with 90% (and the most important part) of the info and the link which tells you that they expect to finish midtable, and before any other forum - and still people are unhappy, that is all I have at present, sorry.
  • Slater's optimistic if he thinks midtable.

    "Charlton chairman Michael Slater said: 'We are not interested in selling and it's nonsense to suggest otherwise.'" - May 30th, 2013.

    "Given the uncertainty about the club's future ownership, budgets have not yet been prepared." - club's due diligence document May 31st, 2013
  • Just below mid table in Div 1 next season.

    When he says no takeover imminent meaning that it ain't gonna happen tommorrow but it might be done before the new year. Well, that's what I'm hoping for...

    How quick? did he shout his answers from the window of a taxi as he went past ?

    If Slater is saying no takeover is imminent, I would imagine it should happen very soon.

    Do you not think you're being a little touchy?
