    My big worry - and I'm sure I'm not alone in this - is just who will move in once the Belgian One has departed? Up to now the only people in the market (so we are led to believe) are the Aussies. A possible scenario is that they eventually pull put and we are taken over by a company/individual/consortium made up of venture capitalists who are only after making money quickly and care even less about Charlton than the present owner.

    At least half a dozen parties have been “in the market”. The only way any owner is making money is by getting promoted to the Premier League. “Venture capitalists” would run a mile from the costs and risks of that.

    So a journalist in Hungry came on here, took lardiman’s transcript of the RD interview, chucked it into google translate and stuck their name on the bottom of the article.

    Wouldn't it be ironic if Roland sold up tomorrow but nobody cared because of Brexit? Might just be the most Charlton thing ever.

    I do. This thread became meaningless approximately 100 pages ago.

    "Everything he has done in football has failed"

    Belgian lawyer (a real one) takes a swipe at Duchatelet

    "Sneak to Duchâtelet
    In 'De Afspraak', Roland Duchâtelet recently went to Rieder. The latter, in turn, had few good words for the 72-year-old entrepreneur. "Let us be clear: Mr. Duchâtelet knows something about automating cars - he has been successful in that. He has already shown something less about football, because everything he has done has failed. I now notice that he really does not know anything about legal issues. We did not dispute the investigating judge. There are three high magistrates from the court of appeal in Antwerp who have ruled that Mr. Raskin should be sworn. So if Mr. Duchâtelet has poisoned arrows, he must direct them to the magistrates. It is ultimately those magistrates who have made the decision. Mr. Duchâtelet knows little about legal matters. He does not know what we have done on our part to get the truth out of the table. "

    I think Duchatalet shows some signs of mental instability.
