    Titbit: Wyn Grant posted yesterday;
    'Rick Everitt (votv) has reported that 'A new UK company Echidna Acquisitions registered by Gerard Murphy on April 30th with the Australian Football Consortium as shareholder. Obvious vehicle to acquire Charlton.' An echidna is a spiny anteater.'

    Pity it's not a spiny cnuteater....
    Improved that one.

    I wake up and there are 120 new posts in this thread.

    I skip them all, go to the last page... if people are not celebrating, I just stop right there and move on to another thread, elsewhere.

    Make the most of it. I have had a whisper that the NEXT takeover thread will be a belter!

    Its STVV's last game in their play-offs tonight , and i think ROT are planning a little farewell party for Roland - could be wrong.

    A lot of weight has been placed on Muir buying a scarf from the club shop and watched a match at the valley = odds on that he is going stump up the spondoolies and buy out Duchelete. I see this scenario similar to buy a car; taken it for a test drive, negotiated the asking price and now deciding the best way to pay for the car; monthly repayments, a loan from the bank etc or joint ownership (car share). The car show room has considered his options on repayment terms and solicitors are going through these options.

    ...or perhaps not.

    This isn’t a patch on the ‘buying a house analogy.’

    I think we will get to 1,000 pages of this thread on Bank Holiday Monday 27 August.
    I doubt sale wise much would have progressed, but by then we would have explored the poetry of Virgil as well as discovering more alternative uses for your socks.

    The Aeneid was essentially all about the alternative use of socks in the ancient world.

    Why would anyone pay £40M+ for a business worth only half of that? Why? Even if it was Paid in instalments & they stick 50% on top, £30M max.
    I don't think its even that close. The Aussies turning up just to put a bit of pressure on I reckon. We've already had one consortium in the Royal box that have run away, why not another.

    If you put a house on the market at an inflated price some people will still come and take a look. But it would be pretty unusual for them to be still looking at it a year later.
    Not if it's come down from £77M to £60M and now down to £40M
    How come you know where I live?

    Blavier Farm. Due to be opened in May 2018. If the progress with this is any guide, there is little chance of the takeover happening any time soon. Our tour guide has been very informative though.image

    They’ll be naming that building after the bloke who paid for it....Ademola House.

    Angeldust saying the first part andbrxleyboy saying hes wrong... think angeldust is morelikely to know than bexleyboy going on previous

    What’s Bexley saying
    Bexley is just saying Angel is incorrect, others now saying Angel is right and Bexley is wrong.....all seems a load of old bull to me and my best guess is no-one really knows diddlysquat currently.
    Angel is correct, Roland must be one of the only sellers in history when creating a bidding war, succeeded in driving price down
    That’s commonly called a Dutch auction.

    Great meeting. I’m in trouble at home because I’m supposed to be organising a dinner party and I wasn’t there. Guests have arrived. Asaagh!

    Roland wants out. Not hanging on to anything.

    NOT going to be an Aussie nursery.

    Should be done next week.

    More tomorrow when I have time.

    Sorry to bring up the housing analogy but it’s like we’re in a really shit chain and the EFL are the equivalent to the land registry

    Australian bloke wants to buy a club in Charlton but it won’t go through until the EFL have processed some bloke who wants to buy a club in Sunderland, he can’t buy his club in Sunderland until someone buys his club in Eastleigh

    I’d like to give Kirsty and Phil the chance to make a location location out of it
