Roland , if you have been hanging on for any sell on windfalls from Pope , Gomez or Lookman or others hard luck. Now FUCK OFF13

Does the EFL have a phone number? What about if CAFC fans spent a day bombarding it with calls demanding answers to the Trusts questions so they can do fuck all else?2

It’s only the transfer window in this country that’s closed. A foreign club could still buy themcharltonnick said:Roland , if you have been hanging on for any sell on windfalls from Pope , Gomez or Lookman or others hard luck. Now FUCK OFF

I think CARD/CAST should release a statement and give them an ultimatum... The club make a statement on what is going on or we actively make plans to get each and every game postponed until further notice1

As far as official announcements are concerned, I think the fans have been treated with contempt by all involved tbh10

I have access to this technology we use at work called Lusha. It somehow has access via LinkedIn to people’s mobiles that they signed up to when they opened a LinkedIn account (if they gave their mobile). For me it’s a telesales dream as I now have a chance of getting through to a lot of decision makers. I will have a little trawl through it 2mo and see what it gives me re: EFL employeesAthletico Charlton said:Does the EFL have a phone number?

What he's saying might well be right, but its also just a reaffirmation of the known current position.J BLOCK said:
Tbf this might well be true. RD said he’d start appointing people at the start of the season if it hadn’t go through and he still hasn’t so I’mRedJohn said:Bexleyboy message.....
Still on ... RD and Aussies waiting on third party to finish there checks and investigation
Guessing they’re close, but we’ve been there x26258 times before
'Checks and investigations' makes it all sound a bit medical though.1 -

Fulham just spent £100m in this transfer window...........and some of you were saying the Aussies shouldn't pay the £7m to the ex-directors IF we ever get to The Premier League.
yeh.......much prefer any new owners not to have this "debt" hanging over them & to be in the position we find ourselves in on Aug 9th.

Unless I've misunderstood you, I didn't read anyone saying that should the Aussies buy Charlton, they shouldn't pay off the ex-directors if we ever get to the Premier League. In fact they would have to pay them off.golfaddick said:Fulham just spent £100m in this transfer window...........and some of you were saying the Aussies shouldn't pay the £7m to the ex-directors IF we ever get to The Premier League.

I read numerous people saying that they felt the Aussies should stump up an extra £7M to pay off the ex-directors loans now, even though it's not their debt.
As has been said many times, it would be the same as agreeing to purchase a mansion at an agreed price and the owner then expecting the prospective buyer to repay their mortgage for them as well, which is clearly beyond ludicrous.9 -

Roland is still making low offers to ex directors. Anyone who uses gaffer tape on his shoes is going to do that. I imagine the only time he’ll make a full offer is the day absolutely everything else is done and dusted.Covered End said:

The ex-directors loans are ONLY repayable on reaching the Premier League. The £7m does not increase....it is not inflation linked or repayable in a set time frame...so it will still be £7m in 20 years time. The loans can be rolled over to any new owner & according to @AirmanBrown the ex-directors do not have any say in the matter or need to be consulted on it (although this is disputed by someone on here who has read all the salient documents.....but an ex-director has specifically said that he agrees with @AirmanBrown).
Therefore, any new owner could pay RD the agreed price for the club, lock stock & barrel, and simply "defer" paying the £7m until that time arises. As I alluded to in my post, £7m at that time could be chicken feed compared to now......especially as in the time between agreeing a price with RD back in Feb to where we are now we are in a much worse position & it may take close to £7m over the next few years (transfer fees, salaries etc) to get us into the Championship if we got relegated this season.
Therefore, imo....to not just accept that there are these loans that ONLY have to be paid when there is going to be 10x that amount available (and may never have to be repaid as we may never reach the Premier League) and instead spend months fannying around to the detriment of the playing squad & therefore to any hope of promotion is just a false economy.
so.....to your analogy. its like buying a house that had an interest only mortgage attached to it that only has to be repaid when you sell the house in the future. If the house costs £40k now, and you know that when you sell it it will be worth £200k, would you not take on the £7k interest only loan......or would you wait for the current owner to rip out the kitchen, bathroom & windows before he pays off the £7k himself....leaving you with an asset which is now worth a lot less & to which you need to make immediate improvements just to bring it up to scratch.
jeez.....its not rocket science.9 -
