    I have a question;

    Are there 2 separate people that have the surname Muir who are both linked to be involved with a possible charlton take-over?

    A Scottish one and an Australian one?

    Sorry, I thought the bid I heard about had walked away, it turns out that they are still in. Although they were very close to walking away last week. Don't shoot the messenger!

    Does Darren Ferguson know?

    So after never seeing the surname in the past, in the last 3 weeks I have seen it 3 times for different people.

    Scottish - Donny - Wealth is questionable.
    Aussie - Andy - Wealth is visible.
    English - Jezza - Pretty sure he's skint... Just joined my work after all...

    I’m pretty confused. We are still hearing from trusted sources that there remain several parties interested in buying the club.

    Rumour that it could go through as early as this coming weekend and some sort of announcement by the club midweek.

    I can’t help thinking that we are still some way off any conclusion. Surely if one party were that close the others would have dropped out.

    My guess is that if the club announce anything it’s just going to be that talks are ongoing and that’s it. It’s either done or it isn’t.

    Again a guess but I think we are still weeks away.

    Well every day is a school day isn’t it? I have been having to use Private browsing to ensure that these Dutch terms don’t get saved in my search history.

    Neither sound great tbh

    Thats certainly is a unique business motto.
    My only issue with it is it makes me think of this...

    I've just googled Dutch oven. What with not knowing what 'bukakke' was (different thread) I'm starting to think I've had a very sheltered life.

    Ed. don't google it ladies
    Hi Tatters,
    I hadn’t thought I’d led a sheltered life until now.
    I also don’t know what those two terms mean.
    At the risk of sounding like I’m addressing an agony aunt, should I google them?
    Yours,

    Definitely not on your work computer, and go "Incognito" if you're doing it at home!
