    @Airman Brown I've read your latest VOTV article and it's given me some hope if I've understood it correctly. Can you reassure me please?

    - it only needs one ex director to refuse the debt to be cleared by RD and he can't lease out the Valley

    - the ex-directors can refuse to have the debt paid (this bit I don't get)

    Thank you

    As I understand it the ex directors cannot refuse FULL repayment of their loans and that RD had tried to cut a deal or he was not prepared to satisfy the repayment terms as per the debentures. Therefore a lease on the Valley cannot be granted without ALL the debenture holders agreement.
    Thank you @RedChaser

    So if Roland did pay out according to the repayment terms he could lease the Valley?

    What's a debenture?
    Yes that's it, clear all the debt secured by the ex directors debentures and the Valley becomes unencumbered (free of charges).

    Mortgage Debentures per se are Legal charges usually sought by banks from Limited Companies who have lending facilities which are regarded as security attaching all assets of the company both fixed (including specific charges over land) and floating over all current assets i.e. the debtor book.

    Without seeing the actual terms of the debentures entered into it is difficulty to comment further but it would appear four directors were happy to give priority (sign a deed to this effect) and three weren't because full repayment has not been offered.
    Thank you @RedChaser

    This confirms my fear that he'll pay them all off and try to lease the Valley.

    It also reminds me why I don't work in finance. Chickens are so much easier to understand.
    RD doesn't even need to pay the lot of them off to lease The Valley and Sparrows Lane.

    My understanding based on Airman Brown answering my questions a few pages ago is that if we have the scenario of 3 ex directors refusing to take a haircut on there loans RD could potentially pay the 3 off in full leaving us with 4 ex directors all happy for RD to lease The Valley and Sparrows Lane. RD wouldn't even need to pay off the 4 remaining ex directors to then be able to strike a deal with The Aussies.

    This for me should it happen is the worst possible outcome of this takeover.
    I don't know if anyone knows the terms but the charges are listed individually rather than as a group.

    I don't know if anyone knows the terms but the charges are listed individually rather than as a group.
    It does beg the question though with the relatively small sum to be cleared from the those directors who are holding out for full repayment why RD doesn't bite the bullet. Still the bloke is so unpredictable, never wrong and doesn't do failure it should be no surprise to us unless the devil is the detail for him.
    Maybe because he sold Lennon and Konsa for cash discounts he might think he's on a roll and arrogant enough to think that the ex-directors will accept cash discounts too.
    From what I understand the three in question have had this position for over a year and are not going to budge, however if they are paid in full and the other four ex Directors take discounts thereafter and or allow Leases then he can do what he likes.
    And from what the VOTV article implied, the cost of paying them off is less than half of the 7 million total. Surely Roland could afford that?

    Well if there is a scenario where the other 6 directors got paid up and walk away would he really want to take the entire fall on his own for the club essentially losing the valley and training ground?

    All the more reason to assume the other 4 may get pissed off if 3 of them get paid up and they don't and maybe change their stances?

    This for me should it happen is the worst possible outcome of this takeover.
    I don't know if anyone knows the terms but the charges are listed individually rather than as a group.

    @Airman Brown I've read your latest VOTV article and it's given me some hope if I've understood it correctly. Can you reassure me please?

    - it only needs one ex director to refuse the debt to be cleared by RD and he can't lease out the Valley

    - the ex-directors can refuse to have the debt paid (this bit I don't get)

    Thank you

    As I understand it the ex directors cannot refuse FULL repayment of their loans and that RD had tried to cut a deal or he was not prepared to satisfy the repayment terms as per the debentures. Therefore a lease on the Valley cannot be granted without ALL the debenture holders agreement.
    Thank you @RedChaser

    So if Roland did pay out according to the repayment terms he could lease the Valley?

    What's a debenture?
    Yes that's it, clear all the debt secured by the ex directors debentures and the Valley becomes unencumbered (free of charges).

    Mortgage Debentures per se are Legal charges usually sought by banks from Limited Companies who have lending facilities which are regarded as security attaching all assets of the company both fixed (including specific charges over land) and floating over all current assets i.e. the debtor book.

    Without seeing the actual terms of the debentures entered into it is difficulty to comment further but it would appear four directors were happy to give priority (sign a deed to this effect) and three weren't because full repayment has not been offered.
    Thank you @RedChaser

    This confirms my fear that he'll pay them all off and try to lease the Valley.

    It also reminds me why I don't work in finance. Chickens are so much easier to understand.
    RD doesn't even need to pay the lot of them off to lease The Valley and Sparrows Lane.

    It does beg the question though with the relatively small sum to be cleared from the those directors who are holding out for full repayment why RD doesn't bite the bullet. Still the bloke is so unpredictable, never wrong and doesn't do failure it should be no surprise to us unless the devil is the detail for him.
    Maybe because he sold Lennon and Konsa for cash discounts he might think he's on a roll and arrogant enough to think that the ex-directors will accept cash discounts too.
    From what I understand the three in question have had this position for over a year and are not going to budge, however if they are paid in full and the other four ex Directors take discounts thereafter and or allow Leases then he can do what he likes.
    And from what the VOTV article implied, the cost of paying them off is less than half of the 7 million total. Surely Roland could afford that?
    But don’t they ALL have to agree to being payed off first ... so if even one disagrees then it can’t go ahead??

    On the other hand if I was an ex director who saw 3 others get paid off I would probably think about changing my position to get a pay off as well - i assume these ex directors talk occasionally...
    They don’t all talk to each other, no.

    All 7 debentures are listed individually on the companies house website. Click on each debenture and the terms are listed - but look a bit complex to decipher.

    I've had a look at those, they're pretty basic and don't specifically list the Property titles however no doubt this was covered by the registration of them at the Land Registry. Sight of the loan agreement forms would be more revealing as to the specific details of the advance.

    This. Or 30,000 comments.
  • For anyone who doesn’t want to read the first 994 pages i’ll sum it up below...

    Roland still wants out
    Aussies don’t have the dough
    Doucher is Colin
    James Seed supports Millwall
    A lot of us like Pot Noodles
    NLA doesn’t know certain long words
    I vaguely recall a section on some sort of kettle
    We’re all really good at fish puns
    Blackpool still wants him to sell up and fuck off
    Most of us would like him to take Murray with him
    Nappa’s shit at maths
    Scarfy made a brief appearance
    Mark Curry from Blue Peter showed up once and hasn’t been seen again
    We’re not moving to the peninsular... yet
    And in the words of Henry - let’s all WIOTOS!

    I can't answer for everyone.
    But you are spot on regarding me.
  • edited June 2018

    Is Henry paying you, so he can get to a 1,000 pages by midnight?


    I feel it should be organic and not for members just to quote the verbose but talented Mr Ripley Grapevine

    There's enough compost we can use to reach the milestone.

    Charlton Life gathered round from paupers to kings
    "I'll answer your questions, I'll answer them true,
    I'll show you the way, you'll know what to do"

    Who is wrong and who is right?
    Yellow, brown, black or white?

    Spaceman, he answered, "You'll no longer mind
    I've opened your eyes, you're now colour-blind"

    The spaceman looked human, but with black shiny eyes
    He spoke brilliant English, his voice synthesised
    Travelled the web just spreading the word
    Of love and takeovers, he picked up a bird
    The bird it was dead, but he made it just fine
    He walked on the water, and turned it to wine
    A young poster he said, "Are you Muir in a mask?"
    No I'm just ITK but I can see why you'd ask
