    On Louis’ video earlier, in response Gavin Carter said, and I quote, “News to me”.
    Looks like standard Alan Nixon bullshit to me.

    Coincidence that the Charlton ownership were in the country around the time this story comes out?

    Nixon adding two and two together and making the square root of f*ck all.

    The biggest obstacle remains Roland and his pie in the sky property valuations. 
    The club has changed hands multiple times since Roland first sold us, so it can’t be that huge an obstacle to a potential sale. It’s not a great situation to be in however.
    On the contrary, by setting the ridiculous price Douchbag is asking it was and still is a huge obstacle……and unless he shows willing, will remain so in his lifetime.
    My take is that nothing will be resolved in his lifetime and thereafter his son will “most likely” take over, who knows how he will view things is anyone’s guess. 🧐

  • I talked at length to Warren Rosenfeld in the Museum yesterday, and he did not strike me as someone looking to sell the club. Rather the opposite, in fact. He is excited about the whole project and thoroughly enjoying the experience. He is anxious to learn more about the club and our history and left clutching a copy of Rick Everitt's book 'Battle For The Valley' which I gave him to read on the plane. I wanted him to understand the trials and tribulations of our exile years, and why the Valley is so important to all Charlton supporters. I really believe that we have finally got good people in charge of our club and hope they stay for a long time to come.
    Wanted to give this 50 likes.

    As I have been saying for months.. these are good guys, but want to invest the right way. From the bottom up, and that’s what they are doing, and maybe we are starting to finally see the club turnaround.. get behind them and the team, could be an exciting few years coming up!!

    need to buy back the Valley and the training ground. before that we are just tenants and could easily become homeless once again.

    Not really. It's really not hard to think that if/when we get promoted then at least some of the conglomerate will look at selling on and making a bit of profit that way. But that's a long way in the future yet, if ever.

    Fair enough I suppose, but it just came over as a "non necessary" addition that's all really...why add it on...I mean just the "They are not looking to sell" was sufficient...🤷‍♂️

    I hope he paid for the book.

    To repeat myself, the Nixon story never said that our owners were interested in selling, or had spoken to the Saudi Prince. Indeed it never mentioned our owners at all.

    The story was that the Saudi Prince was interested in buying a club, with Charlton being on his radar. That might be true, but doesn't mean anything will happen if our current owners aren't interested in selling, or the price isn't right.

    And at some point they WILL sell the club, or at least individual shareholders will sell up, as that's the nature of such ownership groups. Just not yet.

    Been a bit of takeover speculation of late with #cafc - but no chance of any of it becoming fact.

    Current ownership, many of whom were at the game on Saturday, resolutely determined to be at the helm of the club for the long term.
