    This takeover has been happening "within the next week" since November. Think someones source is not that reliable, as well as until it is officially announced i can't see how people can forecast when this will be concluded.

    An entirely false statement. Evidence?

    Still a done deal?

    People shooting the messenger is even more boring than waiting for the messenger.

    Take a couple of hours off charlton life and enjoy your life.
  • Training Ground update. U23 training today, few first teamers in that squad, but no first team training, on a Monday very unusual, where are they. ??????

    Yes, and compare that with the official line until December 28th that nothing was happening and the club was not for sale. Which was more accurate? Yet people still want to rely on the official version of events, which has been a joke since 2013 when Slater denied the club was for sale while documents trying to sell it were being hawked around the City.

    Were “lawyers working to sell the club” as reported or does anyone seriously think now that wasn’t true?

    The point is that what you’re saying also isn’t true. You’re slating the club for being a joke for saying ‘nothing was happening’ which was not true, but you’ve said a deal was to be announced within the next week back in October then you said done deal, which, again turned out to be nonsense.

    So am I right in thinking, by the same standards of you saying the clubs a joke, that you are also a joke?

    I can't remember AB saying in October that it would be announced in the next week and also 'done deal' seems correct in that two parties have agreed deals with RD.

    Go and read the story I published in October. Happy to be called out on what I actually wrote but not invented versions of it.

  • Once things have been agreed it still takes time for the lawyers to write up all the documents, but I would still constitute this as a 'done deal'. like buying a house. Doesn't happen overnight, plus the 'fit and proper owners test' needs to be done by the football league.
  • It was stated in October that AB had four sources and that the deal would be concluded by the end of the week, it was then stated that on twitter it was a "done deal". As my previous posts suggest there are only a few parties know what is actually happening and anything else but are nothing but rumours and should be treated accordingly.

    Not even a rumour or speculation, but a solid FACT.

    "Multiple independent and well-placed sources have confirmed to Voice of The Valley that due diligence on a potential sale has been taking place in recent weeks. And we were told by one of them on Thursday, October 19th, that a deal could even go through before the end of the next week.


    This was read by many as "Will definitely happen next week" even though some said at the time it didn't say anything like that (read back if you doubt it).

    But you still made the satement that "the takeover will take place at the end of the week" right or wrong ?

    FFS The Airman is just a supporter like the rest of us, he just gives us snippets, on the way he sees things are going. He isn’t actually running the takeover process, it’s not his fault that the takeover hasn’t happened yet. It will happen at some point, but give him a break.

    No true but even if it was it still wouldn’t amount to saying it was “happening within the next week since November” would it?

    Evidence than and now says he didn't say that.
