    I just read an article about Charlton's troubled passed, what was going on there prior to the Danish/USA owner finally buying it beggar belief. Shades of what went on at Notts County a few years back springs to mind.

    Without giving it away for others I wasn’t surprised, as it’s a net spend and given the circumstances of our last 10 years we’re more likely than most on that list to have spent big, but we’re also more likely than most to have sold fairly big so I think a useful additional measure would have been actual spend and income rather than just net.

    edit - None of which is to say that we couldn’t or shouldn’t have either bought or sold bigger. It’s just a reflection of Prem budgets, even for a relatively lowly team, rather than those of perennial League One sides.

    Yep, it's only a trifling one hundred million quid.

    Pointing out something is wrong makes you a pedant to some on here.

    Burnley are set for a £200m takeover by Egyptian businessman Mohamed El Kashashy.

    Apparently, he was in for Charlton and Charlton Supporters' Trust were glad to see the back of him.

    Has he actually got the Kashashy though, or is he just another dreamer?

    £200m for Burnley. No disrespect, but Burnley. From what I gather this guy could but another Michael Knighton clone.

    What was it Knighton could have bought them for, about £8 million?
