Oi, I used it in one of my posts, a couple of days ago .... "Lyle Taylor is under contract, he can't just up sticks and go. Whether old Duchatelet thinks he can flog him and trouser a few extra bob, who knows - but right now, he's under contract."objectivecafc said:

Could also be the reason for the takeover not happeningSoundAsa£ said:I don’t know if I am making 2+2 = 5 here......but it’s interesting that Aribo still (as far as we know), hasn’t signed for Rangers.......Mmmmmm I wonder?
i.e. Roland might want that compensation fee from Rangers as one more player sale to go into his pocket
https://forum.charltonlife.com/discussion/comment/3570406#Comment_3570406
I demand recognition, written apology and the sale of Charlton Athletic FC as compensation.
Thank you.

its actually true.1 -
I predict we get sold on page 1905. Happyvalley will be able to post it was the year of our founding on the day we are sold. Nice symmetry.0

Is Richard Murrary stopping the club from getting sold?
I know Roland comes out with some absolute waffle...and almost everything he says and does is utterly ridiculous.
I'm starting to believe Murrary is playing a much bigger part in this.
Quite possibly the biggest snake of them all.
I fear he is stopping the club from being sold.
His behaviour absolutely stinks.
The lies.
The tactical words....the quietness.
What has he done to the club????5 -

It will be 1815 - Battle of Waterloo.
I have no inside info of any sort, but I reckon Monday 1st July is a good day for the old Belgian to sell.0 - Sponsored links:

The aussies want to keep him around but Dalman does not so he’s jeopardising the chances of a Dalman takeover? (just speculating).Rob said:

All these marine jokes have tortoise no lesson - I just don't see their porpoise. There's no ray of hope all the while Roland wants too many squid.

I know he sabotaged Peter Varney's investment approach 3/4 years ago.
It all kind of adds up to be honest.
His behaviour has been very very odd throughout the last 5+ years.
The deflection of blame and responsibility - RM is good at it.4 -
BTW, Blackpool sold for just £10M. That includes the training ground, stadium, club and even a hotel.

Not according to Gerard just now.Scoham said:Someone posted in the same thread "The Aussies have pulled out lack of funding".
By the sounds of all the rumours you’d think Dalman must be ahead though.
Have no other info at the moment.
Of course the Aussies don't have the funding, otherwise they would have bought the Club two years ago.11 - Sponsored links:

If all the rumours were true we’d have probably been taken over about 50 times by now. The Aussies would have completed most of them.JamesSeed said:

Possibly, but we won’t actually know until either they buy the club, or pull out. The rest is speculation and rumour.Addickted said:JamesSeed said:

It’s a bit sad that someone would immediately lol a post that just passes on a simple piece of info. There are plenty of fish pun tweets for you to lol if that’s your thing 😉JamesSeed said:

For the Australian consortium sake I hope Dalman does indeed take us over in the next week or so, it will take the pressure off them and they can carry on raising funds in the hope we become available in a decade or so.33
-
If Roland only gives 2% of his time to SOC and it seems "The Aussies" only give 2% of their time. Dalman is "Totally committed to Cardiff" so Mehmet is giving 2% of his time to SOC.
No wonder the sale of Charlton is taking so Fucxing long.1 -

I do, but they are waiting for Roly to get desperate or sane, either would make a sensible deal possible, alas neither is even slightly likely.cashncarry said:

No disrespect meant to you James as you are only passing on what you are told but from the snippets of info on here over the years it sounds like their model would be very risky ie a consortium of random money who will either make every decision by committee or just be in it to make a return....which is not easily achievable.
Concern would be that when the penny dropped some of the financers would lose interest and pull their cash/ block any further investment like the conclusion of the Kevin Cash era.
Muir in his on right has the wealth to buy and fund outright but as a sensible businessman will want to spread that risk amongst others....from my outside observation it appears a consortium of random investors (?) rather than a group of wealthy people with a keen shared football vision for our club that may have initially existed at the outset.
Could be completely wrong and am only going on what I've learned on here but the model I understand from that gives me the concerns about it's viability and longevity and the outcome if one of many recruited investors lose interest/ realise it isn't the return they were sold (happened to Cash who then dropped us like a hot potato ).

Be honest, you don’t have any evidence to make this claim, do you?Addickted said:JamesSeed said:

I would suggest that they have their price and terms for purchase and will not shift from it.
I would further suggest that the reason we have not got new owners lies firmly with Roland, and not with the Aussies, or any of the professional businessmen, that have tried.6 -
Whether you want the Aussies or not all the evidence, from NLA, from LDT, from JS, suggests strongly they are still interested.cashncarry said:
