What about the EDL, can they help?Henry Irving said:
Because it doesn't see that as their role and it has no desire to get involved.The Red Robin said:
Why isn't the EFL doing anything about this and the staff bonuses?Airman Brown said:
There were other significant unpaid bills from last season as of ten days ago.Henry Irving said:The delay in paying staff bonuses suggests to me that the Belgians still hope someone else will pay them.
It has no power and no will to get involved.
As long as clubs fulfil fixtures, don't break any rules about player payments and promote the EFL in the way they want they aren't bothered and never will be, it's not what they are for.
It's great to keep hounding them but they can't do anything and they don't want to.
Don't expect the EFL to come to our rescue because they won't.0 -
as it stands I'm not particularly bothered if the Aussies, or anyone else for that matter, don't have sufficient funds even for a Championship promotion push as all I want is a Club run properly, paying it's bills on time, paying anyone due money from it on time and treating staff, fans, indeed everyone with the respect they deserve and give me back a Charlton Athletic that I am proud of and proud to support whatever division we are in. Is that really too much to ask?

*the grapes have seen better days, I was storing them in the genital hammock of an old pair of perished swimming shorts (ice white with royal blue action flash if you’re interested), turns out that wasn’t my best idea
This consortium is really starting to build momentum. I feel we're close to making a serious offer.Athletico Charlton said:I have a spare roll of duct tape and whatever coins I can find in the sofa to offer.
ARE YOU WATCHING AUSTRALIA?!?!?!?!4 -
Is there any hope of a takeover? Feels like we desperately need it right now. I’m genuinely concerned for the future if it doesn’t happen soon.

I agree. What's their reason for saying this? (Assuming the takeover is still up in the air)Airman Brown said:

A dozen more pages of nothingness shit .0

Everything at the moment seems to be in stasis, with minimal expenditure going on, e.g. 3 on the turnstile readers in the East Stand being out of order - I assume that's the reason they had binliners over them, unless they're trying to save on the electricity! Sadly, the latter is probably correct
But they also don't seem to be bringing in income either. For example the adverts in the East Stand gents were from last season - several were for the Cheltenham Festival for last March - so clearly nobody has bought those spaces for this season yet.2 -

True.....but going forward they have to get some teeth from somewhere as at present they are clearly “not fit for purpose”, so change things.Henry Irving said:

IMHO the EFL need to rethink just what they are about and somehow grow a pair.
Too late for us of course but their powers need to be increased, particularly in regards to cowboy and uncaring owners.0 -

Simon Jordan reiterating his dislike for Charlton on Talksport. ‘Richard Murray’0

can't disagree with him on that oneiamdan said:Simon Jordan reiterating his dislike for Charlton on Talksport. ‘Richard Murray’

as much as a prick i think simon jordan is, i think murray's "enjoy the championship" comment was classless, and seems to be a general reflection of the man in hindsight.iamdan said:Simon Jordan reiterating his dislike for Charlton on Talksport. ‘Richard Murray’

You would need to go a long way to find someone as classless as Simon Jordan. Murray included.2

Simon Jordon is Narcissistic and from humble roots, made money from mobile phones by being in the right place at the right time.(not Orange surprisingly enough)
Jordan is forthright with his words and summed up Sullivan and Gold when they were at Birmingham.
(I couldn't repeat before the watershed)
Did he work out Murray when most of us still thought Dicky had the Midas touch ?
(Because he was/is Palace he always going to take mega flak on a Cafc website)2 -
Football attracts egotistical knobs like Jordan and that c--t in Belgium running us into oblivion1

He may be right about RM but that doesnt detract from the fact he is a complete helmet.soapboxsam said:Simon Jordon is Narcissistic and from humble roots, made money from mobile phones by being in the right place at the right time.(not Orange surprisingly enough)

It was all so clear cut 12 years ago. Richard Murray was the hero and Charlton legend, while Simon Jordan was a wanker...0
