My house is worth about 475k.NapaAddick said:
Well, it is, without question, worth at least 57M, since that is the debt as it currently stands. So we have a difference of opinion only for the remaining 13M. The lowest offer anyone in the press has reported for RD's purchase is 14M. The highest is 20M. I contend he won't sell at a loss. And that someone will assume all the debt and pay at least the £14M he paid.charltonnick said:NappaAddick I would be very interested to read how you think CAFC could have a value of £75-80M. Sorry but I think you are deluded
I need to add that enterprise value (equity plus debt) and intrinsic value (actual worth) are very different things.
That being said, I think I can make a fairly strong case for even paying full boat for the club.
If I decide to sell I will contact you and sell it for about 3 million.0 -

At least i've learnt to speed read, now where do i start- page 194 think it was.3 -
Maybe we should just stick with the BelgiansJamesSeed said:Anybody buying Charlton will almost certainly lose loads of money.
Unless we get to the Premier League.
But to get there would be very expensive.
So we're looking for someone incredibly wealthy who is prepared to take a big risk, with only an outside chance of a return on the investment.

I doubt the EV is 57m, as it’s not the amount of debt, it’s the market value of the debt. I would imagine the clubs debt rating would be less than junk, so it’s market value is way less than it’s book value. I wouldn’t be surprised if that the sticking point here.NapaAddick said:

Here we go again, you're driving me potty.RedChaser said:Great thread, I've learnt so much over the last dozen or so pages let alone the previous 180 odd from, poetry to basic accountancy, how much a row of terraced houses cost in Rotherham, how to mug your wife off when buying a car and how to convince someone black is white and vice versa. Can't wait for the next tangent
It's tangible assets not tangent.2 -
Yeah, tangent is one of those pottery things you cook things in. No wunder it is dryving you potty.catfordmorry said:

There was an old perv from Saint-Truden
Who thought all the answers he knew them
Turns out he was wrong
Yewtree won’t be long
Please fuck off and go buy the new den.4 -

Great band!JamesSeed said:
Planning to clear the loft in a week or so. Will dig out a couple. They're very good, of course. As you'd expect from a 17 year old Hatfield & The North fan in 1974 boarding school.Oggy Red said:

Were Bolton worth £130M when the old chairman cancelled the debt and they got taken over for nothing? Just wondering....6

Getting this thread back on track,
Here is a beautiful little poem by Emily Dickinson about hope, which is the one thing we've still got.
“Hope” is the thing with feathers,
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops, at all.
And sweetest, in the Gale, is heard,
And sore must be the storm,
That could abash the little Bird,
That kept so many warm.
I’ve heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest Sea,
Yet never in Extremity,
It asked a crumb, of me.

So when is it more likely the Takeover will happen?
a) Before Christmas?
b) Before the end of the Transfer Window?
c) Before end of the season?
d) After the Season has finished?
Personally i prefer if it was A or B as i win a bet then.
Fingers and Toes crossed. Any update at all @Airman Brown ?0 -
My Christmas wish
Dear Santa.
Please send me a new owner of my favourite football club Charlton Athletic.
I don’t want an owner who lives abroad and rarely attends matches, i.e. From Australia, Australia or Azerbaijan.
I don’t want an owner who can’t afford to buy the Valley and training ground.
(We’ve been there before with a near disastrous outcome.)
I don’t want an owner who views the Valley as a piece of real estate that can be a future housing development.
I don’t want an owner who cannot properly fund Charlton Athletic from his own wealth rather relying on some obscure city financier.
I know Santa, that I am wishing for the impossible but I think that after supporting Charlton Athletic for nearly sixty years, I deserve an owner who is a Charlton Athletic supporter, who attends matches and who can properly fund the club.
Thanks.
