Think the Aussies should just fuck off now , look how much grief they are before they’ve even bought the club
These are my favourite type of posts.
Why are the Aussie's grief?
Are the 'British consortium' also grief as well, because if they do indeed exist, they seem to equally be struggling to get a deal through?
What would be the benefit to Charlton now if the Aussie's were to fuck off?
Why, considering Charlton has been openingy up for sale for a couple of years now, is it taking so long for anyone to buy us?
For me personally, not knowing any inside information or to be honest have an understanding how a football club takeover works, lays the blame solely on Roland. He has managed to fuck everything else up at this club in his wierd and wonderful ways, so I am definitely more inclined to believe he is the reason behind the protracted take over as well.
Despite the lack of a takeover this thread has been terrific entertainment, mostly due to the clash between NLA and James Seed. The posturing and strutting of the main exponents has been just like witnessing an old time wrestling match.
I know neither of these adversaries, but have come to imagine NLA as a big bear character, a no nonsense guy who shoots from the hip and devil may care. Little James Seed I see as an articulate fellow. He cannot hope to compete with NLA in a slugging match, but his moves are neat and concise and designed to keep the audience on side, whilst at the same time keeping absolutely everybody guessing.
Spectators have taken sides and booed and hissed. Some have even entered the ring to shout at the audience, others have taken their chairs with them and metaphorically smashed them over the heads of … er primarily little James Seed. In fact I recall one very lively Saturday night which pretty well matched anything that Mick Mcmanus and Jackie Pallo could conjure up at a rowdy Lewisham town hall in the sixties.
On August the third a buoyant North London Addick grabbed the microphone and whilst leaning over the ropes confronting the baying audience declared the match to be over, as he shouted (once again) “The Aussies ain’t got the money” and then he theatrically ‘drops the mic’ and walks away as he mutters "could’ve closed the thread in October".
I must admit I thought it was all over then. There was a period of hush and I was just waiting for Little James Seed to be stretchered from the canvass where he lay battered and blue. But no little James wasn’t finished, he lifted himself by the elbows and took another swipe at the bear ‘Ah, so this is the famous ‘waving of the willy’ that I’ve heard so much about ;-)’.
I think the fight maybe drawing to a conclusion very soon. Two falls, two submissions or a knockout … how can anyone look away now?

That’s very good. I did get stressed that Saturday night, but it was mainly a side issue and not the ‘great takeover debate’. Also, there’s been zero ‘strutting’ from me, and certainly no willy waving mic drop lol. I can still hear it echoing around the ring now.....and the gasp of the crowd. It was taken by some as meaning NLA had some conclusive info, but with all due respect to him and his mystery Roly-side sources, it meant nada. It’s not over til it’s over.
Btw, I’m hardly little :-) although I get the David and Goliath thing.
PS NLA is alright in my book, even when he called me ‘Johnny’. Or was that Doucher?
It's no coincidence that GM said "it's going to be a difficult 2 weeks" with the 2 weeks ending when the window shuts.
With the situation were in now with players leaving with no budget for replacements. I think there is some sort of agreement between Roland and Aussies for this to be happening for unknown reasons as of yet that will benefit the sale being finalised.
I believe the sale will go through soon after window shuts. Hence "it will be wortwhile". As it will be, thinking in long term.
And the Aussies might be able to have a budget in pace ready in time for loans to come in. Just my personel opinion on things..
But why would the Aussies just accept Duchâtelet trashing the asset that they are about to purchase at great expense? It just
If these so called buyers are quibbiling over the price then I do not want them to buy the club. The difference between 40 and 60 million is neither here nor there when they are going to have to fund losses of 10 million a year just to keep the team standing still, if they can not afford to do this then we are better off with out them.
Shaun Harvey heads up the EFL. I'm sure it's not difficult to work out his email address.
What exactly would he do?
Look at the mess at Blackpool and the EFL have done absolutely nothing. This was a comment when they met with Blackpool fans.
"The meeting began with Harvey issuing an overview of the EFL, what it is and what its main objectives are - a presentation that lasted almost 30 minutes. He then outlined the background to the Owners’ and Directors’ Test and explained why Owen Oyston is considered fit and proper to own a club, while Belokon is currently banned under the EFL’s rules. Harvey made it clear the test only seeks to determine eligibility, not capability.
If they see no reason to kick convicted rapist Oyston out, we've got no chance with Roly.
Thats fine but in our cases if its clear the owners are asset stripping and completely cutting costs like what Roland is doing (and not due to avoiding Administration) then the EFL should be able to freeze any transfer dealings out of the club until they conduct their club properly again

The difference between £40 and £60 million is as you put it two years losses. That’s not insignificant by anyone’s reckoning.

Agree with that, but the difference between £40m and £47m is a bit more workable (assuming that is one of the sticking points, not sure what Harvey Gardener thinks?), specially if they could've come to a deal and then it becomes even more insignificant, looking at the bigger picture

Something weird going on. Been a growing number of posts on this thread attacking the aussies and telling them to pay millions more than the club is clearly worth or walk away from posters with very little posting history.
Before going off on one about the Aussies @tony1234 it's worth remembering that clubs are bought and sold all the time, sometimes fairly quickly, sometimes not so quickly, and the only reason we're going into meltdown is that Roland is our owner.
Every day he owns us is another day of misrule, stagnation and unfullfilled potential. Were he just a bit crap as an owner we'd have more patience, but the fact that he's much worse than that isn't the Aussies fault.
And the reason for the delays? Well various possibilities have been put forward, any of which might be correct, but until we know for sure, let's all try get along, and cut out the vitriol.
Still dont get the hatred towards the Aussies. What have they done that is so bad? We need to remember that Roland is involved which will make the entire process a drawn out mess.
Using buying a car as an example, you go to a show room, look around, put in an offer, negotiate and agree the price. Put down a deposit and agree a timescale Of say 3 days to sort insurance, paperwork, tax, garage to service and clean etc. Then collect and drive away.
If Roland was selling the car, he wouldn’t take it off the market once a price has been agreed, he wouldn’t realise it needed tax and insurance, lost the mot paperwork etc. All of a sudden, two weeks instead of 3 days!!!
Has any here bought a football club? Has any here bought a football club off of Roland? I’m equally as frustrated at the time taken but I’m blaming Roland and his merry band of f**ktards and nobody else. He didn’t realise he owed directors £7m! Surely that has put a major spanner in the works time wise.
