  • Ivor Allchurch! A blast from the past.
    Saw him at The Valley alongside his brother Len and John and Mel Charles
  • Two weeks time then....
  • Is this not what was said at the last Fans Forum, that Roland and new owners wanted it done by 30th June for this reason? 

    First rule of the takeover, its never today - maybe tomorrow, maybe 2 weeks, maybe more..
  • Weird, because until then Roland will continue to strip anything he can from the club, so Aribo and Bauer will definitely be off even if Dalman can throw bundles of cash at them

    Bowyer suggested two players could be signing new deals, which I’d imagine are JFC and Bauer.
  • I'm sceptical given previous red herrings but in theory 1 July would or could make sense as 30 June is Charlton's year end.

    The real issue though is whether there actually is a potential buyer and how close they are if there is.

    Mr Murray said it would be done in February 2018


  • Fair play to Bauer if he takes our 5k a week offer and turns down Blackburn, Preston etc, I'm sure they'd be offering at least double that. Perhaps him having a kid and being settled in London will work in our favour. 
    Perhaps he can have a takeover clause in his contract, where his basic increases or he can leave with a minimum fee to trigger like Gonez.

    At 6:47pm yesterday the same person said Bowyer would sign a 1 year extension tomorrow.
    "Tax reasons" = utter bollocks - I don't doubt you were told that but it simply doesn't wash
     either just the "tax" thing is bollocks or the whole thing is bollocks
    why anyone would still be making this shit up is incomprehensible - seems like roly's special brand of toxic deluded lies is spreading even to previously cogent sane people

  • i seem to remember the tax date red herring cropping up before in one of the many false dawns
  • 2 players might be Taylor and Forster-Caskey
  • This is how they should announce if the paperwork has been submitted for EFL approval

    This analogy gives Dalman time to get players for Warnock before taking over.

    Or Taylor and Sarr
  • I wonder if Walter Kronkite ever introduced a story with the words, 'Don't all jizz your pants/knickers'.

    JFC is likely as he has hardly played for a year so won't have too many other offers but Lyle Taylor was already under contact unless he had it extended till 2021 ?

    I hope it's Bauer and JFC as Aribo has surely played his last game for Cafc unfortunately.

    He got lucky.  He talks a lot of nonsense usually.

    Well I’m frustrated by how long it’s taking, but it sounds like technical stuff to do with shifting money and proof of funds around. Disadvantage of consortia possibly. 
    I still expect Dalman to nip in any day now. 
    How can there still be an issue with proof of funds after all this time?

    Good question, but then nothing we've heard about the Aussie bid makes much sense...

    Similar to Mike Ashley.

    Another random Facebook rumour...
    Surely Dalman would still have a house in the London area anyway
