Result. Nothing like a bit of pepper spray to get you signing on the dotted line.Henry Irving said:

Ran a dishwasher on a hot pans cycle in Florida once. Went to unload it and a huge roach sauntered out like he'd just had a luke-warm shower with some "no tears" Simple Baby All-in-One-Wash. The only way to get rid of them is to crush them under a heel.Uboat said:Murray is a cockroach.

I'm taking some comfort from yesterday's capitulation in that the mad old scrote from across the North Sea won't get any extra money for his disastrous failed experiment and ruination of our club. Now in true Blackpool72 style please f*ck right off, once and for all !

Actually, it’s the worst way to kill them. Eggs will stick to your shoe and spread them. The best way is poison. They return to their shed, sorry, nest and die. They are then eaten by other cockroaches who in turn die.cafcfan said:

Our ownership in the 90s was like this. An ever increasing number of rich investors joining the board, which at one point, when you added in the associate directors, was almost as big as the playing squad!Chizz said:
I don't have any inside information. But the idea of the owners of Charlton - or any other club - searching for additional investment doesn't fill me with quite so much fear. More investment means more investors. And an increased number of people ponying up dough means the club's aims have to become more transparent and better understood.NapaAddick said:
I must admit that despite of all the good things I have read about Muir, I cannot figure out why they would need to raise £50M in shares. Muir sold The Good Guys for $870M and then last year sold another set of holdings for $150M. Which means he is a billionaire. Why not just pay Roland in full? Why raise capital? If true, this is a bit worrisome. A club the size of CAFC should not have such a complicated ownership structure and a billionaire owner should not be so hard up for funds.i_b_b_o_r_g said:While I'm always the optimist and obviously want Rocunt out asap, if these Aussies are the same mob as those sniffing round for investment (backup) last year, something still don't sit right with either them, or the deal they / Rocunt are proposing re. Leases and 10% on future transfers etc. (if that is all true of course).
In fact, given the experience of the last four years, I would far sooner have a pool of interested investors, with a shared goal and a thoroughly tested strategy, than a single investor thoroughly convinced he knows best.
Wider ownership of the club exposes the senior management to scrutiny and accountability that's missing from an organisation that runs on the basis of "do it my way and keep doing it my way until Roland tells me I have changed my mind".2 -
It must be almost or actually done if @Ollywozere can make comments like that.kentaddick said:27 - Sponsored links:

If and when this is done, this has to go down as the most Charlton of takeovers...

When this is all over I think we should vote for the best page of the thread before the actual announcement, have it printed, framed and displayed in the museum.9

It actually means the ordaining of someone in holy orders on a submarine.

The guy next to Murphy (extreme right) might be interesting. Staff in the back row.2 -
Have you had any clues who it is Airman0

No, but he is clearly with Murphy. To be fair it could just be a friend or relative.FAVADDICK said:Have you had any clues who it is Airman

Nigel Twiston-Davies, middle back row.0

Surely this will go through within the next 72 hours. No chance that Muir has flown all the way from Australia and attend The Valley unless it was to get the deal over the line. Wasn’t at Shrewsbury but Murphy and Airman’s mysterious man in black were. Who is he exactly?6

Seems strange wonder where muir was hopefully with that pen in his hand0
