    Wasn't it suggested contracts were being exchanged on Friday (just gone) ? Did that not happen or was that just another rumour?

    I have been told by an old friend, who is pretty well connected, that it was done on Monday, but not much sign it was
    Perhaps it was, but it's been agreed that it won't be announced until our fate is known. Duchatelet hoping to sign off with a promotion.
    Idiot.

    I imagine that if it has been done, it will be announced pretty soon if we fail to make the playoff final

    Regarding the leasing of the ground, David Smith has told us it can't happen & he should know. However with something like 10% of transfer fees (is that legal ?) would we even know ? Could the belgian make it part of the deal that no details are released ?

    Would that not be third party ownership?

    I doubt it. I’m sure it could be structured as a charge on the assets. That would prevent the owners from asset stripping the players and not repaying their debts.

    I’m Jaume he won’t have any say in who gets sold, when they get sold, and how much they get sold for.

    I have been trudging to The Vallley, Selhurst and Upton Park for 57 years and in all that time we’ve mostly been shit. I reason I’ve got if I’m lucky another 25 years to go. In that time I would dearly love us to actually win something. I firmly believe we won’t. I’ll still be Charlton mad until the day I die. It’s not a curse it’s a blessing. COYR

    My old neighbour (long since passed) a Millwall supporter said that, "being a football supporter was tantamount to masochism". He'd been a Millwall supporter for 60 years and for 59 and three quarters it had been pure misery. He said he really couldn't remember the good 4 months.

    Not sure about Muir & the Aussie bid, but one thing is that he has attended more matches already than Duchatelet has in 4 years, & he is not even confirmed as owner yet.

    Tomorrow maybe a bit far fetched but I wouldn't be surprised if its by the end of May

    Maybe this will mean more money to spend on transfers with a lower purchase price. Hope Shrewsbury lose badly in the final. Cheats.

    Is he still a buyer in Division 1?
    Price may change now?
    In answer to a question earlier , any changes relating to Leases or Secured Loan Structure requires permission of Debenture holders , all assets of the Club are charged .
  • You will get no more money for the club, so Roland sell now.

    Well we now know what league we are in next season.
    I never renewed my season ticket at the early price.
    Let's see how much they go up now.

    FUCK OFF ROLAND

    If Roland's completely gone, no lease etc, then I'm more than happy with L1

    Typical Millwall fan: He meant the good 3 months :wink:
