The Takeover Thread - Duchatelet Finally Sells (Jan 2020)

I doubt that the Tuesday deadline is actually a deadline. More like if it’s not done by then, Duchatelet will open the door to the new bidders to have a run at it. I think it highly unlikely we will hear anything this week.0

The takeover will never happen whilst Roland holds all the daces.1

You just know that tomorrow evening will come and nothing will have changed.3

We all want a takeover, we're all frustrated that it's not happened as yet but let's remember other fans are not the enemy or to blame.
Blame lies 100% with Duchatelet.
Keep your eyes on the prize.

Everyone on here who comes forth with info, be it Seed, NLA, Doucher or whoever, is just sharing something of potential significance. If you choose to get too attached to that piece of info, knowing how much of a bell end RD has been, you’re going to be disappointed.
I believe it’s closer now than it ever has been, because of RD reneging on his derisory offer to Bowyer and increased rumblings on here. I have reservations about the Aussies as I don’t think they have the money long term, as perhaps the deal would’ve been done by now (I accept there’s numerous factors I don’t know about, so could be wrong).
I continue to welcome all contributions from anyone who thinks they might know something, but take each with a big pinch of salt because of 5 years of association with RD.
I'm pleased I have the copyright on Cavihahaha and Craby Sarr being hooked at HT by our Fishing loving Manager.
I agree the fish puns are the rough sleepers on the Sale of Charlton thread But for most of the 1837 pages there has been No News,
Nothing to report, blankety blank, nowt,
This thread wouldn't have got in the Guinness hook of records without the meagre 5 loaves and 2 fishes to feed the news starving CL members.
Mehmet Dalman or John Dory ?

I predict nothing today with a few fish puns and a hopeful sense that tomorrow will be the day.
Come five tomorrow I predict mass squabbling and ITK finger pointing, we go again in January.
In Bowyer we trust.1 -

Used to do summaries of this thread but got told by admin to stop or they'd remove all my 107 promotes.
Sorry but you can't fight the system.2 -

Your not proper Charlton, unless you have 'walked' from a takeover

It’s a messy business partly because of the inconsistency of the parties involved but over the last 21 months a great deal has come out through leaks and contacts, from the identity of interested parties to the fact the process was going on in the first place. The involvement of Andrew Muir, Keith Harris and Mehmet Dalman, for example, have never been confirmed by the club, yet they are all well known. Ditto the ex-directors’ position, the offers on the loans, and the prices quoted.

In reality the extraordinary thing is how little we know about what's happened in the last 2 years. The members of the Aussie consortium, and why they've got nowhere after 2 years yet are still trying to take over the club. Karl Robinson jumped ship FIFTEEN MONTHS ago as he thought the takeover was about to happen and he would be replaced...10
