Ok so it sounds like Dalman is out of the running, same old with the Aussies, clearly want us but are looking for the right deal. Is there an information on who the other bidders are? Like any guesses to who they might be
Well I’ve heard Chinese. They are supposed to be shown round the training ground and The Valley this week.
My source for this is actually normally pretty reliable.
Think someone (Reams) on the other forum said that it was Monday, and have already met RD in Belgium.
The 3 year contract and paying money for Purrington suggests to me things are going on in the background.
This goes against what the owner has allowed in the past 12 months?
If I had a penny for everytime someone has said that when we spent money on a player in the transfer window, I'd have enough to pay for Johnny Williams wages for the year.
Assuming RD is introducing surprise outstanding debt or upping the price at the final hurdle, why does he think someone is gonna accept it, after essentially agreeing the full and final price at the start?
All this just makes me think that anyone who completes, accepting his ridiculous demands, ain't gonna be any better than him tbh
That’s a kind of twisted way of looking at it. Anyone who completes will be completing based on the price and terms that they are happy with. If the price or terms aren’t agreeable they won’t do the deal. You always seem to be knocking.
Not knocking mate, just trying to understand, but any questions regarding the Aussies in the early days was always met with sarcastic replies. Since then there's been other reasons why I'm personally more in favour of Dalman, but that ain't to say I personally wouldn't give any of em the benefit of doubt to begin with. It ain't a dig at you, GM, his oppos, or Australia the place
Update is bollocks. RD has said he isn't involved in takeover talks, won't discuss figures, three interested parties, one very interested and hasn't walked away.
Simon Jordan stating he knows "the shape of the deal" and if he wanted he could be involved and own a part of Charlton although he is t interested as he is a Nigel.

In reality we could have been in deep doo doo if the cash strings were pulled after the sale, fortunately it happened before.
... feck all!!!
SJ: I know the shape of this deal and if I wanted to get involved I could. But only in a parallel universe of course.
SJ: I suspect they will get a deal done.
SJ was very critical of him.
