    If what I’ve heard by someone I trust implicitly is true, then it’s not the Aussies holding it up

    Fits with some other gossip.

    Duchatelet constantly looking for someone to pay more than club is worth rather than take the various offers made.
    Exactly what other gossip ? All I’ve seem to have heard is that it’s not RD but the Aussies getting further funding in place.

    Can’t believe I’ve missed anything.

    Apparently Charlton can no longer afford breakfast for all the development squads before training. Seriuously? What planet are they on?

    I wonder if that's even legal.
    You wonder if a company is allowed to stop giving its <<highly paid>> employees a free breakfast?

    Surely you have bigger eggs to fry?
    Please name the 'highly paid' minimum wage employees your talking about? You need to read before replying with nonsense.

    Sorry all for getting het up, again.

    There’s something going on in the background that I can’t talk about here, but which will hopefully get resolved over the next couple of weeks.
    (And I’m not talking about the takeover here unfortunately).

    I apologise if I’ve appeared over sensitive, and if I’ve perhaps inadvertently attacked (or defended myself over robustly) against the wrong targets. It’s easy to mistake fair comment for something else in my current position.
    Apologies to @Redskin in particular on that front.

    In addition, I’ll try not to take attacks on the Aussies so personally, which I hadn’t even realised I was doing.

    In the meantime, let’s hope we can unite behind our desire to remove this strange owner from your/our club, and get behind the new owner, or owners, whoever they may be, or wherever they come from.

    PS This is a great forum, and the mods do a great job in the background.

    My comment and it’s precious 4 LOLs were deleted ... understand there are some sensitivities at the moment but it was only a kind hearted jape. Did you really have to rip those LOLs away from me. If you have any pity for me you’d find some way to give them back...
    Scandalous ;-)

    Page 1111 is our next target

    Now we've passed 1010 and 1011, it should be 1100.

    NLA can't wait.

    Do you mean page 10001001100?

    If they're children I meant.

    The League One planet. As reported last week, RD is planning to reduce costs to the level of other L1 clubs by all means, including player sales, staff cuts and expenditure cuts. I would say we are 3 years away from being Leyton Orient.
  • If a young player breaks into the first team, he doesn't get appearance money, but he gets a free breakfast.

    Wow.... so you think penalising those with the least is the answer - again think before posting - if 'all ' then fair enough but it's not all. It's a professional football club not a Sunday sportsman league. These kids have just signed scholarships not 10k week contracts.
  • Can the breakfast debate be taken to the seperate thread please, comments on it will get lost in this one.

    Agreed and will do , but it's relevant to the bigger picture?
  • Are we allowed to comment about their pot noodle lunches being taken away on this thread?

    I know, that’s why it would carry more merit on a designated thread imo

    But Henry needs the breakfast posts to get to 1111 pages!

    You poached my thoughts as well!
  • This topic is toast.

    Take it to the other thread or it will jam up this one
  • Bean and shifted my earlier post over to the other thread before this one mushrooms further.
  • My head is all scrambled by this.
