    I thought they were referring to driesden during the meeting, LDT had not crossed my
    mind

    Were you at the meeting, @Athletico Charlton?  

    Did anyone else come away with the impression that the conversation was about Driesen and not LDT?  

    It seems a bit confusing all round.  Why would LDT suddenly have dropped out of the central position of handling the sale of the club?  Why would Steve Gallen - who has done a fantastic job purely on the football side - be considered for the CEO role, which is (or should be) about running everything to do with the business, except the football side?  

    I can totally understand the comment that Dreisen is no longer involved, as Athletico_Charlton seems to have understood.  Can anyone confirm that it was LDT that was said no longer to be involved?

    I asked what additional duties Gallen now has.
    Marshall said he was now the go to man for everything, but bear in mind Marshall & JJ only deal with football matters.
    Marshall and or JJ mentioned the Belgian no longer being around.
    I assume that Gallen deals with most everything on the football side & probably LDT is dealing with the sale, but possibly not much else.

    I was at the meeting yes. As @Covered End  points out, JJ and Marshall are both footy people and as i recall the question was just a comment as to whether the Belgium advisor was still around to which they said no.  My assumption was Driesden as he was the football one and I only thought of LDT when I read on here.  Can see the confusion, still think it was Driesden.

    If you say so.

    Lots in the new VOTV about potential new buyers.

    The owner must be rubbing his hands at how well we are doing.  He can smell another promotion.

    Only if he’s ready to splash some cash. Will he do it?  Or will he revert to form and take a cash offer for Lyle?
