As far as this latest interest is concerned, there is no deal on the table. It’s simply an approach which was passed on to Murray by Duchatelet and has since involved discussions between lawyers. There is no “deal” and to my knowledge no “bid”.Southendaddick said:No offence to James Seed Airman and NLA but I will never be convinced there is a deal on the table unless WIOTIS

In respect of the Aussies and the mysterious British group, the “deal on the table” was reported to be in place by the club’s official website back in February, quoting Murray. I’m not sure this has proven very reliable so far, but we live in hope!

Why don't the Aussies contact the "new" potential bidders for investment? Both parties obviously interested, we could be the richest club in EFL by Christmas

Summary of new party interest.stockholmaddick said:So in a nutshell . What news on this new interest and what is it based upon .
A rumour started circulating three weeks ago that a third party had approached the club to add to the already known Aussie bid and the "is it real?" British bid.
Nothing is known about the individual or individuals behind this interest.
Airman Brown has told us that this party had been referred by Peter Varney.
It has not been said that PV is part of the bid, advising or in anyway guiding this party.
From what AB says Peter may just have signposted them Duchatelet.
Duchatelet has now asked Murray to handle them as he has with previous enquiries
AB implies that they have started to investigate the club but have not completed DD.
That's all we know.5 -

What lengths have they gone to?razil said:Maybe it is a lie, although why go to such lengths? They are going so why does it matter what their reasons are, little gain in it.
More interesting to me at least is the point about 2 years costs
They just told some more lies.1 - Sponsored links:

So, basically, believe in it until WIOTOS ?Airman Brown said:

So JS, what you're saying is that your supposed buddy, 'GM', has completely mugged you, and us, off all along?!JamesSeed said:My worry is that the Aussies may have been over ambitious, attempting to put together a consortium to raise enough funds to buy the club and to fund a genuine bid for Premier League football in five years. If one or more of the consortium had to to pull out, then perhaps it is been difficult to find a replacement because of the level of funding required. [Not inside info, just idle speculation on my part].
Whoever buys the club only needs to satisfy the EFL that they have funding in place to run the club for two years. Let’s hope these rumoured bidders have more than that.
Utter parody quite frankly0 -

I'm convinced he'll somehow outlive me as Charlton owner, even though he's more than 40 years older than me. Feels like it's Roland foreverblackpool72 said:

Bit harsh. JS clearly stating this is his speculation rather than something he has been told. Even if it turned out to be true then plans can unravel. The only person mugging us off here is RD.bazjonster said:

I was only half joking. It seems people keep looking in the shop window, but walk away after closer inspection.
Except the Aussies obviously.

I believe the Bromley interest will come to nothing because they don't have sufficient funds, and they want clear title.2

That’s a great idea Bert! I will tell him that there are rumours that they’ve pulled out, but he’ll reply that they haven’t, and I’ll post that on here, and six people will like it, @clb74 will LOL it, and three people will reply telling me what I can do with it.bertpalmer said:
