So former investment banker Josh Harris has realised he made an extremely unwise, uncool decision, and is selling his stake in Palace, but it seems a tad premature to actually put in a bid for the Addicks just yet...
Americans just have no idea what they are getting into in English football. They think... how much harder can it be than US sports? Every year the value goes up. What could go wrong?
Just a thought - Oyston leaves Blackpool and the first attendance after his exit.....a sell-out!!! If, and I know its a big IF, RD goes very soon, coupled with last nights TV performance, any potential watching buyers need to realise that once they move in The Valley could also have a massive increase in attendance. Imagine it - RD gone, the team 'nailed on' in the play-offs and a sell-out 'Valley'. This could be a great finish to the season, so whoever you are, if you're reading this forum.....come and buy us....the future could be very bright!!! C'mon you know it makes sense!!!
Says LDT originally told the party who made an approach before Xmas that they would have match the £70+ offer agreed by the other parties.
LDT denied this, eventually, when I pushed him on it at the January Fans Forum but as VOTV reminds us that denial was left out of the official minutes. It was in my own notes posted here.
VOTV continues that LDT then called this party back, presumably imho because the Oz/US deal he and Jim White thought was in the bag, had stalled.
VOTV says price quoted by LDT was £65m (sixty five million pounds).
Lot more in VOTV around the £35m bid etc etc but you can buy a copy.

Thank you Henry. I wasn’t there yesterday so haven’t seen a copy yet.
Seems to me from what you have posted today and previously that the club have deliberately manipulated the minutes to exclude LdT’s comments. This needs to be vigorously challenged and if the club refuse to amend as remembered ( is the FF recorded ?) then all this nonsense about waiting for the official minutes being published before the FF reps report back to their constituency should be ignored.

I did ask for it to be reinstated but events such the fake vandalism and EFLgate overtook events.
One reason I put my own notes out is that I don't trust the club or apologists like Paul Nottage to be straight with things.
I confirmed yesterday that the ex-banker in the Standard is the same party as the one discussed in the Voice. We went to print before the Standard came out, and before I received a tip-off about the story, so the publication sequence is slightly confusing. It’s why the Standard story isn’t referenced.
I don’t know why they told the Standard £30m, but I am very confident of what I’ve written.

Has he offered more then?
I believe De Turck is playing games when he says the club hasn’t received an “offer” of £35m, because he and RD haven’t enabled the talks to progress to the point where a firm bid can be made.
I am told it was made clear to them the party was willing and able to pay £35m and take on the £7m directors’ loans, subject to seeing the DD. RD/LDT haven’t engaged fully at those numbers and they have quoted £65m - although that wouldn’t all have to be up front. The party won’t pay that.

Which begs the question, if there is a 30 million disparity, How were we ever 48 hours away from a done deal ?

That’s got nothing to do with this party. It’s obvious now that the Aussies (and the British group) agreed a price they couldn’t deliver.
Given that the contract was submitted to the EFL in May, which Shaun Harvey has confirmed, you can’t argue that the principals didn’t believe a deal was very close - they were simply wrong.

Promotion is a must then so that the Rat incurs even bigger losses in the Championship You know that doesn't make sense Roly, so get real, sell up now, go forth and multiply .
RD is on record, well radio, as saying he'll let the Club and goodwill (snigger) go for nothing, as long as the bricks and mortar are paid for. So, in true Homes Under The Hammer style, why not get a couple of estate agents round to give it a value? Or does he just not care that the business would are now look8ng at him think ****!
RD, if you're reading this; you're not being ruthless, you're being a Dick as nobody will pay £65m for your f***-up
During the Sky commentary yesterday, in the first half just after the first Roland Out chant started (if I remember rightly) they stated that they believed RD was asking for £35m or that was the figure that had been offered. I think they mentioned it twice.
