Please, please, please can this just get over the line and please, please, please can this thread be closed immediately and a new one started when it is.
And if it holds true that Addicks is a corruption of 'addocks then it could signal a return to our roots! At least I think there's an octopussibility that's what it could mean.
- If it doesn’t happen RD to reluctantly consider appointing senior management staff.
- RD wanted to lease The Valley but only 3 of the 7 former directors agreed.
My guess would be Richard Murray, Maurice Hatter and maybe David Sumner. Think the first two fairly strong odds on. Apologies to David and the other two if I'm wrong.

Also this tallies with what RD told ROT so who is Cawley's source on this? RM?
Sorry to talk about the takeover, but the Newshopper reckons the sale price is @£35M.
Seems a lot but then again under half of what his experiment has cost RD
I did a rough calculation months ago. When you add in the ground & training ground improvements, plus increase in the freehold values and bearing in mind he possibly got Charlton cheapish, it's a bit top heavy, but just about a realistic price.

According to NewsShopper:
- Club expected to be sold for £35m.
- If it doesn’t happen RD to reluctantly consider appointing senior management staff.
- RD wanted to lease The Valley but only 3 of the 7 former directors agreed.
So obviously it'll happen tomorrow when I'm at the Chelsea Flower Show where no doubt the 4G will be agonisingly slow.
@Covered End is at a test match. Anyone else anywhere unusual? I'm just fishing here....
[edit: Some news at last!]
Destroyed the club.
Selling it for 35 million.
How does that work?
I just wish he would get less from this sale than he originally paid.
It also contradicts what @Davidsmith and @nth london addick not being spoken to. They must have been to say "no".
But well done the Valley Four for not letting Duchatelet hold on to the Valley.
