Back to the takeover The dog that hasn't barked in this fiasco so far...albeit a very mangy, discredited mutt, is Richard Murray aka "The Fan's Voice". Turkey was asked at the Fans Forum if Murray was involved with the British bidders - a nightmare prospect. The reply was interesting, if you can believe it. "No, but he knows the bidder". Varney?
Murray's been around for a long time, knows a lot of people, so it doesn't tell us much. As I said before, de Turkey mixes truth and untruth as and when, but he appears to enter the fans' forum with the intention of not giving anything away. Maybe someone who goes regularly to the FF meetings would learn from his body language when he's lying, like when he denied the £70m quote, or maybe he should be wired up to a lie detector.
If the overall price really is £70m, lets hope £2.7m of that has been set aside to pay Murray the money he is owed. We really do need a Charlton future that does not involve that man.
According to Rick, who is rather more cautious now than he was a year ago, the £70m was quoted to one particular party for reasons best known to Roland. It would be shockin, juss shockin, if anyone was prepared to pay such a fantasy figure. I want Charlton to be owned by realists.
Yes, it was the proferred to the bidder that Duchatelet apparently has a personal dislike of. I am guessing someone with the initials PV is involved with that bid.
It could also have been the former Nottn Forest owner who after signing a NDA immediately went onto Twitter with pictures of him visiting the Valley.
It's easy to tell when the Turkey is lying …. his mouth opens and words come out … that's when he is lying..
Some positive posts from NLA for the first time. The old Aussie bid is dead, the new one is genuine. I've come to trust NLA, so for this reason am not giving up on a takeover before summer.
NLA has consistently been on the money. From day 1 he has said the play-off 18 mob do not have the readies.
It is glaringly obvious that Murray is involved in the attempted takeover. Why else is The Turk conducting these silly forum meetings? That is Murray's job.
I have to say that there are two posters on CL that make me sick to my stomach. Attention seekers, two faced and back stabbers. Look at me, look at me. Look how important I am. No need to name them as everyone on here knows who they are.
Neither of them have anything original or interesting to say, but feel the need to promote themselves every day.
