All gone very quiet. Worrying!!0

What were we expectng? We now know that offers in the region of £30 are significantly below what our completely mad owner wants. What is clear is that there are people willing to pay a more than fair price for us.0

I predict this thread will soon have to close. Its epitaph will read "Born in Desperation, Died of Boredeom"

Rolly is a forward thinking sort of a chap, has anyone told him about the ‘new’ way of selling a house where anyone who is interested put in a sealed bid and the highest one wins.
Proof of funds to buy buy the Club lock stock and barrel to be supplied and on conformation, copies of all due diligence to be made available at no cost. Cash within one month of winning the bid. Simples.0 -

What about a raffle?35,000 tickets at £1,000 a ticket - the winner gets the keys and Two Sheds pockets his £35 million.
What could possibly go wrong with that?

It's hard to see what the future holds for us with him in charge - he has no interest in football, in Charlton and he seems a very vindictive individual.1 -

We've got to put some pressure on him. I think we need to go to Belgium again as it gets under his skin.
And I think we need to try and make contact with his family as on current form, we will be dealing with them sooner or later. I think we need to give his partner and kids the benefit of the doubt and ask them:
i) do they want to see us keeping up the pressure on RD in Belgium? (making it clear that we will)
ii) do they want to deal with us in the event of RD not selling? Again - they will be if he never sells (which seems the most likely scenario to me).
and possibly iii) do they not have any concerns about RD's mental health given the ludicrous statements he's made recently.
If I had any eccentric rich old relatives throwing millions away to save face I would be concerned. I'd use the example of Bolton's former owner Eddie Davis who wrote off £175M of loans.

Should the thread heading be updated to something like:
“as you were”
“at ease”
“we’re on the road to nowhere”1 -

And the EFL will stand by and do nothing. He has not broken any financial rules and has not committed (so far as we know) any criminal offences. The anticipation and joy of gaining promotion is completely overshadowed by the very real prospect of RD still being in charge next season. The tunnel appears long without the glimmer of a light at the end. What should be an exciting period for all Charlton fans is overshadowed by the cancer eating away at our club....and there appears little any authority or individual can do to cure it.3 -

As it stands we'll have a very weak squad whatever division we're in next season assuming RD is still at the helm.
