    I blame the EFL
    If it took 4 days to sign a player with all the correct paperwork then Christ knows how long this will take

    The Australian consortium probably sent the papers in last year and still waiting for confirmation  :)

    They'll probably find out they've unknowingly bought Brighton.

    Perhaps Roland could sell us then buy Bury.

    Is there still anybody actively looking to buy the club or have all the recent interested parties now gone away ?

    All 'interested parties' gone, I think, according to the more reputable sources ie not the Fans' Forum official minutes.

    Can't believe my birthday year has come around. We probably won't see many more birthday posts on this thread for a while this is about the time of The Selhurst years when it would have been difficult to gain new young fans. At my school I was on first name terms with pretty much all Charlton fans and we were certainly in the minority by some distance too!

    Eton can be a bit like that I’ve heard.

    I was going to post that this was the year a lovely lady became Mrs TT.

    I will resist any further comments.

    I'd rather you'd celebrated Charlton's promotion under Mike Bailey!

    Mike Bai....ley, Mike Bailey, Mike Baileeeeey, etc .....!  :smile:




    Edit: Anyone under 50 hasn't got a clue what I'm talking about. Sigh :smile:

    If he's not going to sell, which seems like the only outcome in the short to medium term, the least he could do is appoint a CEO.

    I take it with the fact that there is no 'Takeover' news that means all potential buyers have now gone? @JamesSeed do you know if  Aussies have now also walked? Is the fans forum due to meet with LVT again soon, perhaps he can shed some light on  whats happened (without lying!!)

    EDIT. I meant to add that while watching the Hull game on Sky last night, they were saying Hull have been up for sale for a few years now (think it was 2), at £50m. Now they have received some £10m in transfer fees, the owners may well drop their price!

    A mate told me on Sunday that he thought that Roland might be having a change of plan based on a hunch from how the sale price and sponsorship packages had changed.
    He wasn't sure what.

    Let's hope they are foreign and have a background in academia and the law. Last thing we need now is a grinning bufoon with the negotiation skills of an door stop...

    If this means Roland may be giving up the idea of selling, I hope someone has a Belgian protest planned and ready to be enacted at short notice, because leopards never actually do change their spots, do they?

    By the way, has his new boutique hotel & party venue, Hof van Stayen opened yet?

    (Edit: Apparently it has: https://www.truineer.be/nl/sint-truiden/t-hof-van-stayen-opent-de-deuren 
    Anyone booked there yet?  Looks a step up from the Hotel Stayen across the road!

    And here is another picture:https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20190512_04394412 
    Nice to see Roland has preserved its 17th century charm - Ah, sorry, that's got lost sometime in the past 13 years!)

    Don’t worry, he’s talking with Merkel and Macron this week.
