    P+L is profit and loss and would, i assume mean the amount lost in the last 12months. Seems too high.
    N\W i assume net worth - could bé right, worth of valley and training ground minus debt - so given a minus suggests we are insolvent and yet people interested in spending 18M to buy us!
    W/C- no idea, something to do with smoking in toilets?

    Have to say that if this is genuine, which i don't beleive, then your mate would probably have signed an NDA on the whole thing and publishing details on here would bé a clear breach and a court case prob even TJ could win!

    What have I missed? Why have a couple of Robby Jobinson couple of blank post said, where they the answer to all the questions re the takeover? Does it mean that I am still not in the know?

    I deleted as it was bullshit, apologies. Mate was bored at work and knew I'd post it - he's a Charlton fan as well. My bad!

    Yeah, apparently a load of it was jibberish - and he couldn't believe I went back to him and asked for more info today. Good thing I don't work in finance... Sorry!!

    Having said that, there is a Chinese billionnaire who lives near Charlton Park. Definitely saw an Addickted sticker in the back window of his Bentley...

    That's the killer for me...

    Interesting opening post, no relation to Ronny Jackson are we? Only he was a wind up merchant who never lasted too long on here and got the inevitable Red Card. Probably just me adding 2+2=5 again.

    All this chit-chat about Administration...
    If it ends up in Court, the judge - who will be familiar with this thread - will probably issue a Winding-up order.

    This might be of interest.

    Front page of the South China Morning Post today reports that HK based billionaire, Henry Cheng Kar-Shun is now rated one of the UK's richest property investors with properties such as the "Greenwich Peninsula". Cheng is a heavyweight old-school Hong Kong tycoon with several degrees, an MBA, legal training, high level connections and more seats on boards than a No 9 bus.

    As some on here already know, Cheng's investment vehicle company "Knight Dragon" (KD in previous posts) bought out the share of their JV partner Quintain Estates in November this year making them the sole player/owner of the ambitious Greenwich Peninsula regeneration scheme which has consent for 10k plus residential properties and outline consent for commercial/retail property.

    Quintain are the mega-powerful British development corporation that owns Wembley Park and would (one assumes) have expertise and interest in including sports stadiums in successful development plans.

    While Cheng owns ten race-horses there is nothing known or reported to indicate any interest in football and HK property investment models do not normally incorporate sport.

    1.Was it the November deal between Knight Dragon and Quintain that scuppered the American buy-out from TJ and chums??? While Quintain might have entertained a sports arena in the mix rented by an American sports corporation, when the Americans approached Cheng about new stadiums on his patch did he just smile politely and tell them he had no interest or plans for a sports stadium?? There is much more profit to be made from selling luxury London riverside flats to eager Chinese investors.

    2.Should TJ jump on a plane to HK and start licking the boots of Mr Cheng on a daily basis in the hope he might take pity on a local footy club with strong heritage connections to his impressive new development down the road???

    3. Should we offer to rename ourselves the Charlton Knights or the Charlton Dragons to try and lure in Cheng?.

    4. Should there be a new Chinese splinter group of the Charlton supporters Trust?

    5. Err..that's it.

    I dont think we should be so easily put off your master plan grumpy.Just cos Cochran 45 has poo pooed it doesnt mean we cant have ten pages of analysis on here for the next week or so before someone else comes up with another pie in the sky theory.well done grumpy.

    And RBG will have a large say in what goes down on the peninsula. The Council will have only one shot at getting it right. Luxury flats certainly but that's not enough for the unique opportunity that the peninsula presents.

    @Grumpy the biggest problem with your plan is not so much the wrong land area but the fact CAFC colour is already 'RED' so there is no fun to be had. Where as Millwall do fit the required wrong colour to change BLUE to RED. Therefore the new rumour is that Millwall are going to be taken over by the HKDragon himself.

    Technical accuracy should never restrict a really good conspiracy theory...

    Anyway, no harm in offering Mr Cheng a season ticket and a complimentary meat pie or two to see if we can seduce him.
