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.
First, you choose the house you're going to buy. Then, you negotiate a price with the vendor. Then, the vendor turns out to be demonstrably bonkers. So, you go to the Winchester, have a pint and wait for it all to blow over.
Simon Jordan has been nothing but scathing in his assessment of RD throughout this takeover saga. Fair play to him for actually knowing what's going on rather than just believing whatever shit RD comes out with.
Why ? Because you are colour prejudice and don't like orange people. Because a man who lived in Holmsdale Road as a kid supported his local club instead of Man united ? Because he called Richard Murray a wanker when we all thought he walked on water at the time. Because he refused to go in the Birmingham boardroom because he said the owners at the time made money from wank books and dildos ? ( Sullivan and Gold)
Because he is a Nigel ?
Why Simon Jordan has fought our corner since he has had dogs abuse from the majority of Cafc fans over the years is a mystery to me. ?

Because he said, at the height of the Murray-Jordan spat, that he would buy Charlton Athletic, just to close it down...
Has the possibility occured to anyone that Roland doesn't actually own the club at all and it's this tiny legal detail that's holding up everything .
There were historic legal issues that the Aussies spent much spondulix on resolving way back when. I think you’re right, and this ownership issue dates back to the Jimenez era (as shown in the recent court case).
Where does £50m come from? It certainly was £33m (or possibly £30m) plus £7m for directors’ Loans, depending on who settles these. Unless it’s different prices for different buyers.

Rumours that Roland increased the price of the club upon promotion. Which actually in my opinion would be reasonable if the original price hadn’t been higher. Although it’s not as if he has contributed to any success and is not funding an appropriate Championship club.
Hi @JamesSeed its the figure Simon Jordon mentioned when he was asked by JW what sort of figure RD was looking fro, on the radio this morning, when SJ said he knows one of the parties, what the deal structure is and he'd been 'invited' to be part of it.
Edit Please note I'm paraphrasing as was listening to it at work and trying to pick out the salient bits.

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.
Richard Murray or Simon Jordan?
5 ltr paint has been reduced with my Wickes trade card and Selco is where the trade go.
