    Heard about ‘new’ bidders a few weeks back, but as Murray is supposed to be involved in a separate Brit bid I can’t see he’d be helping anyone, least of all Varney, if indeed he is involved.
    Of course none of this is 100% info as far as I’m concerned, not unless they announce themselves, or the club acknowledges them publicly.
    No idea what the Aussies are up to at the moment.

    No question of Murray helping Varney or vice versa. Varney isn’t involved, but he does have an interest in seeing the club in better hands which is why he passed the contact on. It was Duchatelet who then involved Murray.
    I’d love to know exactly how many separate entities have looked at Charlton with a view to buying, over the last two or three years.
    I wonder what’s putting them off :-)

    And while Murray may have his own motives, he surely (as a Charlton fan) must be desperate now for the takeover, any takeover to happen, as clearly the alternative of a disinterested Roland owning us all season would be terrible

    There I've corrected that for you :smile:

    This thread!!
    Didn’t Henry point out a new member called something like @downunder joined about six months ago?
  • Come on Airman. What you heard ?

    There is a new interested party who contacted Varney and from there was put on to the club more than a month ago. PV isn’t going to tell me who that is, but he has said they are credible. My understanding is they have been talking to Murray and have also started due diligence of their own, but whether that relates to the above or not I can’t say.
    Talking to Murray ? I'd rather hear that they were talking to the Belgians
    Probably tried talking to them and they didn't make sense.
  • I wonder why Peter Varney was the point of contact for this new group ? Implies to me that it’s a group within PV’s sphere of influence. Would lead to the obvious conclusion that the interest is Middle Eastern ?

    Perhaps they wanted some billboards about leaving The Valley!
  • Sounds promising let the games commence someone with the full intention of getting this over the line hopefully this time

    You heard something too @nth london addick ?
  • Page 2210 it is then
  • Just 12 months to go
  • According to my contact at Asda the hold up is all about clean title with the Aussies not willing to roll over the Director's loans .

    Nope nothing here in nth London
  • If it’s a Varney introduction then I’d have a lot more faith in this one than the Australian bid.
    Varney won’t sell us down the river with a load of wasters.
    Question is will Roland cut his nose off to spite his face? He’s not likely to be Varneys biggest fan after all the letters last year
  • From what I can gather people are running away with the Varney connection.
    Now imagine the new interested party is a letter received by Varney incorrectly as a former tenant. Instead of shoving it back in the post box with 'return to sender' scrawled across the envelope he has forwarded it on to his former domicile and probably had a bit of a moan for not setting up one of those 6 month redirects. He may have tried to steam the letter open for a quick look before gluing it shut again, or even held it up to a light, but that we will never know. Hope that clarifies things.
  • That went straight to trash as it referenced the Scunthorpe game and they had the Avast set to “over zealous”
