  • I reckon many decent buyers are not at the table because of Roland. It's probably like talking to a stranger on a park bench but then making you're excuses to leave when you realise they're a psychopath thinking fcuk that for a laugh. Most people can't be bothered with him.

    So NLA says that the Aussies are close, but JamesSeed is doubtful that anything at all will happen. As a lover of symmetry, this satisfies me.


    I never said close close I said are further along 

    there is no such thing as close 

    it’s done or it isn’t done that’s it nothing else 


    imminent  doesn’t exist 
    NLA, don't know you but always appreciate your posts, but you have said more than once (I think) that it will be done by the start of the season and I'm hanging on to that. 
    That’s my personal opinion and I really do believe that to be the case 
    Next season starts in July 2020.
    If you are standing in a queue and a voice shouts out Next, the person at the front of the queue goes to the table not the second in the queue.

    C u next Tuesday is wrong,
    See you this Tuesday or Tuesday week should be used.

    Too much ambiguity on the word next.

    Now back to the non sale of Charlton.

    Ps. As Chizz is a Pedant.

    Why the sudden love in for NLA?
    It’s a form of Stockholm Syndrome. He’s got some positive posts and in the maelstrom of negativity he is king!
  • 1893, The school leaving age in England & Wales is raised to 11 years.
  • 1893 - The year that Charlton Park Rugby Club was founded
  • Reading between the lines of what NLA is saying, it sounds as though the aussies and possibly other interested buyers have made contact with the ex directors recently? Is that right NLA?

    Hang on, I thought you previously said that if anything is happening you will be the first one to tell us, so surely you should know what is happening and not reading between the lines of someone who has been consistent all throughout this saga?
    once the takeover has happened i will announce it on here - i have no idea about all the ins and outs going on in the background to get to that point - as i have said. I'm not even convinced the aussies 'exist' as such. NLA's source, i think i am right in saying is one of the ex directors so the info that he has which appears to have changed, i am assuming, must relate to one of those?
  • edited July 2019
    The dealings with the director’s loans is king pin to the takeover and talks an agreement with all of them needs to be reached. It would appear that NLA knows at least one director and I’m sure this also is true with @Airman Brown. This would alert them should progress to the conclusion of the takeover be nigh.

    We love you too mate....
  • Unless you live in Roland's head/brain no one knows when the message will tell his hand to sign off on the sale of Charlton.
    Knowing all the ex directors won't answer that question even if you are aware of activity on that front.


  • Brunello said:
    I know nothing!

    I find that’s the best way to be.😉
  • So Roland wants to take over the debenture payable on reaching The Premiership, most likely for more than the current £7M, and it needs paying off for him to do that?

  • Whatever happens this'll always be Roland's legacy!!... £7.5m for those three is criminal!!


    Sickening, isn't it. Even know we know we wouldn't have seen any of that money under this regime, it's still beyond a joke for 3 players of that quality, all who in a couple of years I expect to be regulars in the Premier League.
  • One thing I have to remember is the fees werent received at the same time yet just imagine what Bowyer could do with £3m!!

    It's like most of Roland's actions - a red hot knitting kneedle down ya japseye...
  • What actual work has lickspittle done this week?I
    Is the amount of work done by lickspittle at Charlton similar to the amount of work done by Farage in his role as an MEP?
  • If it could be a system that would work properly I'd potentially do away with the club Academy system here in England and have a single Academy ran by the FA (almost like Lilleshall)

    Graduating players then get picked up in a Draft like system so Salford City this season would have had first pick; Man City would have had the 92nd pick with said player having to see out a Contract of three or four years at said club before they're able to move on 

    Its an thought of mine that I know has endless flaws (even I doubt if it would work what with teams able to sign players from abroad too), not to mention is something that Premier League teams alone would never agree too but something has to be done!!

    Trouble is @ForeverAddickted the vast majority of clubs rely on bringing through youngsters and being a feeder club to survive. And unless there is a big shake up of wealth distribution within the game, many clubs will go bust. I do agree with you however that something revolutionary needs to be done.

    So, if today is this week, we can see that means this week has started and that next week hasn't. 

    This season - 2019/20 - started on 1 July, the first of this season's friendlies have been played and the first qualifying rounds of this season's Champions League have been played.  

    So, while I hope that the takeover happens as soon as possible, we have to acknowledge that it, sadly, didn't take place before this season started.

    I think the magical answer to that (If somehow the clubs did adopt my idea) would be that the whole TV money gets added to a pot and shared equally between all 92 clubs

    I'm going to stop ranting about what I hate about Football now though and fly back to reality on my unicorn, might stop off at candy land first though
