Can anyone confirm or deny?
Paul Elliott was too
Is Roly trying to get them into a bidding war?

not a rumour, Peter Varney's picture was tweeted/retweeted by CARD.
EDIT: Before the match that is - at the sit-in.2 -
Peter Varney was there, but then is a season-ticket holder.6

I don't know if he was, but when we arrived this morning, a club employee told me that Peter Varney was down on the list of attendees.1

He was I believe......I saw the picture on Twitter.1

He's totally aware & clued up about everything we're protesting about and ideally what needs to happen to secure our future.
He didn't mention any meeting with RD/KM of course and I didn't ask but he's a highly approachable guy who shook hands & greeted several fellow supporters whilst we were talking.
After the game, I was told that a meeting had taken place and £38m was "put on the table". Allegedly, RD was on the brink of signing on the dotted until it was made clear that a clause in the deal was that RM remained as Chairman....at which point, the "case of money" was firmly shut and Paul & co walked out.
Can't confirm this but if true, sounds as though we could be closer than we think to a resolution that would see Fanny more than 2 sheets to the wind.

He had to do a U turn at the club shop before the game, he was about four cars behind the Bentley4

If RD wanted out (oh god please) and someone was paying him what he wanted he'd drop kick Murray quicker than you could say 'huh', he's not going to turn it down to look after RM. Why would he care if RM remainded or not after he went?19

I hope is near to happening Mrs H, if so I'm buying the Babychams.

Hmmmmm. A vastly over-generous offer of £38m considering the current state of the club. It makes no sense that Duchatelet would insist that Murray should remain as chairman after he sold. I reckon Duchatelet couldn't push Murray under the bus fast enough for that sort of money.Fanny Fanackapan said:

It could be they have some sort of signed agreement that if Murray hasn't recouped his money he stays on as a board member/chairman of the board/President/bloke who lives on the couch, etc.Missed It said:

I forget why but I got the impression that Murray may be part of the Elliot consortium, guess I'm wrong on that (and I have no inside knowledge, just something I gathered on here).0 -
Being as objective as I can be as far as Murray goes
I completely understand he's trying to recoup a huge chunk of money he has loaned the club. You don't get to be as wealthy as him by writing off the odd 7 million here and there.
So in which case I would be fuming at Duchatelet for how he has gone about things. I can speak honestly and say I was against Duchatelet from the start but I know the vast majority were more optimistic so I imagine Richard was too. Now at the point where to even the most moronic could see selling and releasing more senior staff than you recruit is asking, begging for trouble. Why did he not use his place as Katrien Mieres warden to, for his monies sake if not the fans, to knock some sense into her or grandpapa fritzel? I would have done
And why has he then continued to allow himself to be guilty by association? He's not getting any younger and I really think if I was him I'd be after some sort of settlement agreement as opposed to hanging onto a pipe dream of a return to the promised land and a recouped investment/windfall2 -
The £7m isn't all owed to Murray. That's the total owed to several previous directors (I forget who). I just don't see why it should get Murray a seat on the board forever. It's a debt - not a contract of employment!7

Did he leave his ticket with Sam Bartram?

Totally agree and I will readily admit I don't know specifics about the financials but my point remains. If I was him I'd have been spitting teeth and jumping all over Duchatelet and his witch to do things properly as opposed to being her left hand patsy for all the good it's done him.Missed It said:The £7m isn't all owed to Murray.

He's now dirty which is a shame given how well thought of he was for his association with the good times1 -

There would be more chance of Murray recouping some of his money if he pissed off and relinquished all involvement in the running of CAFC.6

I can't believe this is true. No way £38m would be put on the table (far too much) and the only way there would be such a clause regarding Murray being chairman would be if the new owners wanted him to be chairman or if he was part of the take over.Fanny Fanackapan said:

38 Million could well be the opening gambit By Douchebag,
But a League 1 club, even in London is worth 18 million top wack.
So why would a consortium pay 20 million over the top ?
Their is no reason Roly wouldn't have signed that quicker than Usain Bolt running for Gold, but the Paul Elliott Group know that Richard Murray is Persona non Grata with CAFC fans now and have gone from Hero to Zero.
The tragedy is that the man CAFC supporters owes so much to in the past,
for bringing us Light, is the man who is now keeping us in the Dark.
If " The who wants to be a millionaire man" is the stumbling block behind a new owner or owners taking over Charlton; the Opprobruim will only increase towards him.
My Sunday morning message to Dicky from the soapbox ?
Repent Your sins Richard Murray,
you backed the wrong horse.
Take a back seat and enjoy the New Charlton
as we try to climb back.
Deflate your EGO.
Hand over the Baton.
your Legs have gone.

The biggest an most obvious stumbling block to any meaningful development seems to be pretty obvious, and that is the behaviour not of Richard Murray (which might be bad enough), but the behaviour of Latrine Merde.
I also do not believe Latrien communicates the whole picture to Roland because she is (understandably) threatened by any sale. Latrien is the filter that does not clarify, but chite stirs.2
