Listened to the White/Jordan interview with Duchatelet last night. Is it just me or did the 'Belgian One' sound like he was on drugs?

If, Roland is asking for £50 million now, based on land price, is it the same price he was asking for a year ago?, and, will it stay at £50 Million if were still for sale this time next year.

So Roland says the club is free, and you only have to pay for the land.
So how much is the land worth, or how much does Roland think the land is worth?
I can't find accounts for the last financial year on companies house, but I can see the accounts for the year before. Under tangible assets a value of £42,347,000.00 is stated. Katrien Meire signed this off on 20/12/2017.
I might be totally misreading the accounts, and correct me if I am, but with the 7 million owed to former directors, and this valuation, your looking at almost £50,000,000 for the club.
Crazy
That would bring us to £30 million and a ball park figure that has been used before?0 -

And what a nice reminder to any prospective buyers of what they can expect if they don’t pump millions into the club and buy instant success3 -
So, we're back to where we've always been.
Our greedy, deluded owner wants too much for the club.
As such, we will continue to be Shitweaseled for the foreseeable future.
Bummer.0 -
I think we are in Deep Deep shit.
I'm sorry.
I personally cannot see any happy ending here. At all.
Considering how internally messed up the club is.....league position wise, we are not doing absolutely terrible.
That is the only positive to take.
It is unlikely we will be falling out of the football league and dropping down from league 2 into an abyss.
Other then that.
I have absolutely no idea what the future holds for Charlton Athletic.
We are owned by a creature that hates us. He is also an old man...that knows absolute f*ck all about football.
He is playing the victim and he also won't let go.
He doesn't make any sense about anything...and he got called out by Simon Jordan....the last person you would expect to want to intervene.
He is our foe....but he quite clearly cares a lot more about rational...about business and about football...then Richard Murrary ever has.
He is officially confirmed as a more dignified person then RM.
It's a sad sad time.

Maybe we should appeal to the EFL for their advice on the situation....?5

I have to agree. While Duchatelet clings on to the valuation of c£50m probably anything more than £20m lock stock and barrel, this situation will remain unresolved.
Things are only worth what someone will pay for them.
Business losing £6m plus a year
Crowds falling
Offered Price in 2018/19 £50m with £5m? debt League 1
Purchase price in 2013 £18m? (Duchatelet with very little due diligence) with £6m? debt Championship
Purchase price in 2010 £1 by the 'spivs' with £6m? debt League 1
Do the math

Something I have never got my head round is the "five current interested parties" we were informed about a month or two back. Where have they all gone to? If this disclosure was true, then why have they ALL walked? There can only be one reason.....the price. So why have none of these 'supposed' parties come out of the woodwork and stated Goldfingers asking price or at the very least make it known that it's totally unrealistic? Someone somewhere is telling enormous porkies!1

Sadly, I think their hands are tied. If he has not broken any EFL rules and has not 'brought the game into disrepute' so to speak (although as far as I'm concerned he has) not sure they can do much, other than to 'advise' him to sell the club. But they can't force him to do that. Having said that, they won't be too happy about his comments regarding 'foreign' owners.0 -

It was a load of baloney to entice genuine buyers out of the woodwork.
Wearing a bit thin now though that tale.0 -
Is there anyone out there who is skilled in property valuation who might want to estimate what the market value of the land at the Valley and Sparrows lane might be without any planning permission for change of use ( and next to no chance of getting such planning permission in the foreseeable future) just to demonstrate that RD is bending the truth yet again. I do remember that have been some pretty dodgy valuations used in the accounts in recent times as well).

Only a smattering of legal education but am perplexed about the NDA. Pretty sure if the Ozzies have walked away the NDA is over. No transaction is taking place, no consideration has changed hands. Why no word? Perhaps James can text Gerard?
If RD drops his price the deal is a new one and requires a new NDA.3 -
