2 separate bidders leaves the Aussies and a question mark.
I like the unknown
apparently Doucher says they are English. then red henry says they are foreign
Murray said there was a second, British party and they were favourites at that stage when he spoke to staff at the end of January, as reported in VOTV. He has now confirmed my report two parties have agreed a price - and added they have agreed terms. That doesn’t preclude other interested parties also existing.
It’s painfully drawn out and confusing, but I really don’t get the pessimism in some quarters. If you stand back from the minutiae the narrative is clear. The club is being sold.
Several DDs can happen at the same time. We once had 3 on the go simultaneously. The two bids"excepted" dont have to be the same monetary value----could be money up front and then bolt-ons , money but certain assets NOT included,all debts paid and all the dosh etc etc
Its believed RD has a preferred bidder which could mean anything ,but given the old c--nts track record is more than likely to mean he ends up keeping the freehold to The Valley. The other "excepted bid" might be more dosh but RD has to sell the lot.
Tic toc Tony tic toc
Your use of the word “excepted” really annoyed me then for no real reason other than being totally wrong
Then I read the last few pages and cheered up
Hoping Redhenrys group are still in the running. I’m assuming they are as it’s definitely not the Scottish consortium
Dont forget the article from McLeish the other week saying that the Scottish lot being unable to match the price wanted by Roland
I'm going with: Party One = Andrew Muir | Party Two = The group that RedHenry has been talking about
Trying to find out if they have won. Nothing back yet. Here's hoping
what nationality are your lot red henry? are they foreign?
Yes
Ha Ha Ha so Red Henry has confirmed his known guys are Foreign & I believe that he has said they're not Aussies, so if there's anybody that still believes doucher has any idea of who is involves that means we 3 parties ..... FACT
Surely someone from CAST/CARD etc, can ask the club/Murray ASAP to clarify his statement and clear up the misunderstanding.....or is that too simple a thing to achieve? It’s well known that Richard Murray reads the forums and no doubt is already well aware of the confusion that’s been caused. Interesting to see if he clarifies the situation.....and if not why not? Does it mean he deliberately set out to confuse us all.....the Richard Murray I once knew would have reacted very swiftly to clear things up.......nowadays, sadly, I really don’t know?
To most, there is no confusion - there are 2 consortiums - as there have been for some weeks and both have now had their offers accepted - so the deals are partly both done but when drafting up contracts etc and until they are signed, nothing is a done deal - 1 party is Australian, the other is british and is the one I would put my money on - not redbull, not the known Scots and if red henrys lot are foreign, it's not them - hopefully it becomes 'done' in the next few weeks - if not, once next years division known would b my guess
On the contrary......you only have to read the comments on this thread in the last few hours to see there is plenty of confusion with several different takes on what he has said and what he means. Indeed, you have just added your own opinion, which, like most others, you believe to be correct, when in reality all you have done is added to the confusion.
What is there to be confused about? The statement on the OS is pretty straightforward.
Charlton Athletic Director Richard Murray has said that a price for a takeover of the club has been agreed with two separate parties and that the deal is now with the lawyers.
We’ll, surely you can see there is a lot of confusion......by a lot of posters. Would do no harm to clarify whether he means two different parties interested in buying or that the two parties are one bidder plus Goldfinger. Not too much to ask is it?
I have some clarity on the situation. Price had been agreed with two parties ie the price that will get the deal over the line. But neither party has met this.

i think the only pessimism from some is due to lack of patience. its taking an excruciating long period of time. neither according to @Redhenry have actually met the price agreed as of yet. Murrys statement, you (VOTV) and others on here broke the news of these two bids being more or less accepted over a month ago and we still seem to be in the same position as we were back then. unless I've missed something.
I have some clarity on the situation. Price had been agreed with two parties ie the price that will get the deal over the line. But neither party has met this.
RD: So I want £50m for the club P1/P2: Okay thats agreeable RD: Excellent I'll send you my PayPal details P1/P2: Nah we dont trust PayPal!!

In my case the pessimism comes from the outcome of the last two sales - first the spivs, then the nutter. Why should this one be better? Of the two options out there, Roland will want to get the best deal for him, not for CAFC. Indeed I wouldn't put it past the old twat to screw us just out of spite.

I can see there is confusion, I just don't understand how people can be confused. The article on the OS is pretty clear, a club employee has even confirmed it on this very thread.

This reads like potential purchasers can't meet Duchatelets asking price, even if it is miles too high. My pessimism is fuelled by this and my thoughts that he wants the whole of the staprix debt cleared despite the reckless way it was created. Seems like square one to me. Who is running the gaff in the meantime?

i.e. Wouldnt be the Qatari's who own PSG would it?
See you again with another statement at the end of the month
It’s painfully drawn out and confusing, but I really don’t get the pessimism in some quarters. If you stand back from the minutiae the narrative is clear. The club is being sold.
But false rumours are being spread and there is a time lag with news from weeks ago only reaching people much later.

@SoundAsa£
@Ollywozere works for the club in the Comms team.
He was off work yesterday so he didn't write the statement
He came on here and clarified that two separate potential buyers are still in the process to buy the club from Duchatelet.
Murray told the staff around February 1 that there were two parties still involved and that one was British.
The other is believed to be the Australian bid headed by Andrew Muir.
Red Henry believes that there is a non-British/non-Australian bidder individual still in the process.
P1/P2: Okay thats agreeable
RD: Excellent I'll send you my PayPal details
P1/P2: Nah we dont trust PayPal!!

And by that I mean actually know him not just in the virtual sense?
Or is he just someone who guessed something right a while ago and his kudos grew from that.
His answers are so peculiar and vague at times. I have my doubts.

Let’s put all those pictures of streets up and see if he can click on all the ones with cars in. Then we’ll see exactly how clever he is won’t we....
