"There I was walking down the stairs after the game and walking down next to me was Andrew Muir. I asked him if he was our new owner which he kind of brushed aside, but he then went on to say thatwe need to get the club back on track and give it back to the fans. He also asked me how many years I’d supported the club and kindly asked my name. Our dialogue is not massively illuminating I know, but he seemed very engaging, interested and a really nice bloke. I guess only time will tell."
Sounds like Callum will be offered the CEO gig by Muir and the FD role is going to Bert who he chatted to at the betting kiosk.
Will Kewell be announced as manager at the same time. Give us another new manager bounce in time for 2nd leg and final
On a serious note, I really hope they give Bowyer a chance next season. Hopefully the Aussies will have heard / seen the backing he has from the fans and back him as well.
I don't think they will appoint Kewell now. It might have been the intention but they need to get the fans onside and dumping Bowyer would be a disastrous move.
Belgian 20 on Twitter have also said that Sparrows Lane will be leased to the club & that 10% of all player sales will go to RD until the figure of £40m is reached
I reckon it was @SDAddick story about his dog that swung the deal his way #BestFriendsPetCare
Andrew Muir is a successful business leader, entrepreneur and philanthropist, who as CEO of The Good Guys led his family’s business to become Australia’s leading household appliances and electronics retailer. In 2016, Andrew stepped away from his role as Executive Chairman of The Good Good Guys when JB Hi-Fi acquired the business and today devotes his time to business interests including BestFriendsPetCare and Momatu, and his roles in the community as Director of The Good Foundation and Board Director Essendon Football Club.
Apparently he is going to change our name to "Top Blokes Charlton Athletic".
When asked if Roland Duchatelet would keep the ground and training ground
“I heard this thing that Roland was keeping The Valley and selling the club, no, not that I’m aware.
“To my knowledge this (the sale) would be lock, stock and barrel.
“The training ground for any buyer is quite key as well. They realise that for a club like us the academy is essential and I think Jason (Morgan, CEO of the Charlton Athletic Community Trust) is aware that the Trust is very much one of the assets which they (potential buyers) feel is linked to Charlton and can be expanded even further than it has been already.”
Would rather Roland remained then have a deal like that and wait for someone who is willing to take on the whole club. Treading on old ground if this happens.
Was also told last night (after the game) that the prospective buyer(s) are looking for a £50 million share investment scheme. Could be yet another load of bollux I suppose.

Just sell the club and FUCK OFF.
Desperately need some good news after last night so please let the takeover be confirmed soon.
Sale once division known - tick
Aussies or brits, not red henrys lot - tick
The “tax” on future player sales is more likely, although I’ve heard nothing on it.

He might be wondering soon why he's trending on twitter.
