I can't keep up meeting the Charlton fans Mr President Highness, they have sussed out that we are lying to them about the sale, I even had some bloke in a cardigan brandishing a thermos being horrible to me. How can anyone take the embarrassment of that.
Jeez. Listening to Bob Radcliffe of Ineos talking about them just buying Nice FC on BBC5L Sportsweek. What a nasty man. Casually moaning that Bury FC was unsustainable because they couldn't sell replica shirts and their ground is four times too big for them. Oh, and it "will take time" to get rid of racist chanting at Nice.
Supporters were left hoping that Gallen’s change of status indicated that a takeover could be close.
“Not that I know of,” he responded. “I knew we were getting close in the summer. I’ve spoken to prospective buyers a few times in the last 12 months. In the summer I was talking to them about transfer targets because if they came through the door they needed to be aware who we were looking at signing.
“Unfortunately it looks like that has gone back into the background. It will still come back, I just don’t know when.
Roland has backed LB to the extent that he’s been able to sign 15 quality players to add to the quality players LB wanted to keep. He’s bought into the dream. He’s not selling.
Why did he recently say the priority is still to sell the club?
Because he has verbal diarrhoea.
And is a pillock.
This thread was started by HI in April 2017. Surely you don’t still think the club will be sold anytime soon do you ?
He won't sell anytime soon, but he still thinks he might do. Therefore we won't be seeing things that suggest he's planning to be here longer term, such as Bowyer given a longer contract and more permanent signings instead of loanees.
Once Bauer stuck the ball in the net, we were not being sold in the immediate future.

Be careful what we wish for.
So you’re saying a nasty man bought Nice, which isn’t nice and will take some time to make it nice?

First visit to The Valley was just after Jimmy Seed died. Dec ‘66 for the Millwall game. Next visit was when my mum opened the Jimmy Seed Stand. More recently it has become an unexpected second home, and I’m sure JS would understand.
Am currently reading the “Jimmy Seed Story”, his autobiography. What a gentleman, even in the face of his sacking. The book was one of three, a box set. The others are Sam Bartram and Eddie Firmani.

Originally published in 1957. I get a little mention :-) The cover of the (unauthorised) CAFC reprint that you have, used a photo of JS when he was manager of Millwall, and he’s surrounded by Millwall players.
Selling the club is still Duchatelet's primary aim. Keeping costs,and so losses, down until that happens is his other priority.
When serious building work starts again on the training ground then we'll have an owner who isn't planning to sell.
There were buyers out there in the summer, Gallen said he spoke to them. Dalmen hasn't gone away.
There will be new and renewed interest because we're second. If we are still doing well in November/December then that interest will only increase.
Unfortunately most likely so will Duchatelet's unrealistic valuation.
We'll be sold IMHO unexpectedly and with little or no prelude. We'll wake up to a story from @Ollywozere on the OS telling us it's done.
When that will be I don't know.
I agree, however the unfortunate fact is that our owner is also a greedy, deluded Shitweasel who is currently, and will always, want too much for the club. There were no shortage of suitors in the past, but even those with superhuman levels of stamina and patience have had to face this reality and have subsequently fooked off.
I can't see this changing, ever.
When he kiffs it....we might have a chance, unless his son is a chip of the same bafflingly obtuse block.
I have given up all hope of us being sold within the next few years. The one factor that needs to change for things to move forward is still the same, i.e the Shitweasel!
One of my personal favourite CL moments was seeing you hold Curbishleys autobiography. Charlton fans sent you his book after he signed it. Foreign Charlton fans are rare. You just can't beat stuff like that.

I can't take anymore I quit.

But like Stevie Brown, he never let you down.

Also bumping this thread to avoid confusion on t'other thread.

Oh yeah, it's the Roland thread.
