    For Sale, one Rat Mask, one careful owner, still in good condition. Reason for Sale - no longer required.

  • Unbelievable news. Does anyone know how long, roughly, this EFL approval thing usually takes ? Also, anyone know any Fulham or Newcastle fans ? I have a second hand black and white scarf for sale

    Bowyer is making steady and sustained progress, and even if we have a bit of money now it's important not to go mad.















    Feck it.

    GO MAD

    Hopefully we can get a bit more information today in regards to The Valley/Sparrows Lane ownership.

    Does anyone know how long the EFL will take to approve the new ownership?
  • God imagine what Bowyer / Gallen could do with a proper budget
    Wont be surprised if we go back in for Toney now!!

    It did occur to me to wonder whether the inflated £60M price tag leak was made in order to be able to announce "reduced for a quick Black Friday Sale" at the end of this week...
    But then (my) sanity returned, and I remembered all the previous evidence that Roland knows the price of everything and the value of nothing - and realised that the next news will probably be that the sale is off because the buyers will have discovered they will STILL be liable for the former directors' £7M loans!!
    For pity's sake Roland, accept you're not going to get back all the money you and Katrien wasted between you, during years of mismanagement.  Set a realistic "priced to sell" valuation and stick to it, and get CAFC off your hands before our traditional post-Christmas slump takes us down to the relegation zone and halves the value it currently has.
    Just sell the club and bugger off!
    What's that saying about "many a true word spoken in jest?  :D

    I'm a bit late to this party, but hoping that this is all that it seems at face value - certainly the official statement is saying all the right things.  Now we just need actions to match, and we can all get back to what we do best - supporting CAFC!

    These past years have been difficult ones for us all, but through CARD, CAST, WAR & ROT I've met and corresponded with some amazing people who have stood up and been counted in so many ways.  As soon as the new owners are confirmed I think @Henry Irving and fellow trustees had better put in a request for additional museum space to display all the protest memorabilia!!

    Just spent 5 mins looking for the Takeover thread. Not a good idea to completely change the name!

    I heard the next two weeks could be crucial
