I doubt Murray was ever leading any bid or was part of the M&M bid but may well want tooffer his services and experience to the new owners as he's done with the last two regimes.
Younger supporters won't have a clue who you are talking about

Sure, if you're paying, I'll have crispy seaweed, beef in black bean sauce, shredded duck and pancakes, egg fried rice and some spare ribs please mateflyingkiwiDK said:This thread has now passed 1 million views.
Chinese anyone?
Just add sweet and sour chicken and you’ve got the perfect Chinese takeaway.1 -

Unfortunately , I feel like the ‘update’ during the week will only be a few lines commenting on how “talks are underway” and how “Robinson will be backed in the transfer window” , as well as “promotion to the championship remains the main priority” ... all fart and no shit stuff we have come to expect from Charlton/SMT these days!
It won’t be making anything official nor will it give any clues as to who’s involved10 -
This just posted on FB. Make of it what you will...
“Wow, what a conversation I've just had!! If this is all true and comes off there's going to be a few people still not happy. Seems like the Wednesday or Thursday announcement could well be true. Been told there was/are 3 sealed bids for the club. One of those isn't the Aussies as they they enquired in the summer to come in and control via a management structure and share of academy RD and KM was not interested. Don't know who the other two are but the one who this person thinks looks to be "a done deal" is interesting. There's 2 British fellas and 1 Swiss fella with a combined wealth of £2.8b. If they are successful Alex McLeish will be installed as Director of football and Donald Muir as Financial Director. Not sure what would happen with Robbo yet. Not to much info on the Swiss or one of the brits but the other one is said to be none other than Mike Ashley. Although he wouldn't have full control as he obviously already owns a club, but can obtain shares!
Makes sense with the relationship McLeish, Muir and Ashley had with Rangers.”0 -
The Swiss fella is being "picked up" Tuesday apparently.0

Me too. It’s also quite a detailed account of what might be happening behind the scenes so I’m inclined to believe him TBH.Taxi_Lad said:

Mike “Two Chalets” Ashley apparently owns property in the Swiss resort of Verbier. Possible link to the unnamed Swiss buyer perhaps?1
