For the record I don’t think he will have a fire sale in January, but I think there is a risk of the club falling off a cliff edge at the end of the season re contracts / sales with RD in charge and I wouldn’t trust him an inch on that.
Do you know which players are out of contract at the end of the season? I know Bauer and Igor are 2.
@Airman Brown the 1.5 million isn't a game changer in its self but doesn't increased attendance have a direct impact on potential advertising revenue? I also mentioned loss of corporate/sponsorship due to individuals and companies boycotting them. I know boycotting isn't the only reason for drop in attendance, I don't go as much due to apathy.
@JohnnyH2 I am not doubting it's his fault we are in league 1 and have been for 2 seasons already. But how would running the club properly increase revenue by £12 million a year?
@seth plum you seem convinced that there will be multiple player sales in January, what evidence do you base this on?
At the end of the day someone has to pay the piper. I would suggest that is the outrageous operations costs that are more of an issue than any asking price. We aren't in a situation were a rich fan, like RA could buy us, and have a whip round in the directors box to make up the wages.
Unless either RD or any new owner slashes the running costs any potential buy would be looking at £200-300 million pound investment to even hope of getting there money back. Even then its still unlikely.
I base it on the losses mounting up, and the indifference Roland has with regard to results.
So it's a conclusion you have come to with out any evidence? I am not trying to dig you out, I hear a lot of different people repeating this as fact, as far as I can see it's baseless.
I have given you reasons for my opinion, so my opinion is not baseless.
It seems clear from @jamesseed's reply to a poster on his twitter account that he has not seen the article where Muir suggested that him being 'linked' to a bid for Charlton was 'erroneous':
"But was exactly did he say, and what was the context? I’ve just heard that he won’t say anything until the deal is done. If and when".
I'm deliberately not on twitter but it might be useful for someone who is to forward airman's tweet to him - as he might just be able to get some comment or clarification via Murphy?
I can understand everyone’s frustrations but I feel the Aussies will come through but under their terms. Just hold back with the vitriol and apply a good dollop of patience.
Crazy that Sarr could still be with us next season, years after he was signed by whoever. An incredibly number of managers (Luzon onwards excluding Slade and Nugent?) for someone who's played so few games for us

Defensively OK (Sarr on the bench obviously) but Taylor a little isolated up top
The question is will they sign them.
I believe what division we are in next season will be crucial
The rumour was that some players had been offered deals only for them to then be withdrawn and replaced by a lower offer.
Hence Aribo, Fosu and Bauer not re-signed.
I fear for our future all the time Shitweasel owns us.
What do I win?
Solly 2019 according to this story.
Roland Out.
If only you could’ve kept hold of that one for a couple more weeks.
Shame. His sparkling personality and motivational speeches would’ve really lifted the place.
But fear not, Taylor can do a job at full back.
