Belgian Takeover

Yes, sorry 'North Stand Morons' was a bit unnecessary; I didn't mean specifically anything by it

 

This isn't the Standard Liege forum?

 

TakeOver has been completed http://www.cafc.co.uk/news/article/20140103-duchatelet-completes-charlton-takeover-1273149.aspx

 

It can't have Slick Rick said so http://www.votvonline.com!

Nervous anticipation best describes my feelings towards this news.

 

Looks like Murray will still be involved in the new set-up...

 

I guess it's because of the money thats owed to him and other directors.

 

So Prothero is moving on as well? I was never sure what his role was or what he actually did?...... only thing I can remember is getting rid of Ricky..

 

That was worth the money alone

 

Relieved that someone actually wants us enough to put their money down.

Decenty article - but would like to point out they didn't take over when we were 13th, we were 3rd or 4th I thought?

 

Hi all will this news have a positive or a negative effect on our club

 

Short term will be positive you hope - one signing today already and hopefully a few more. Long term, you never know.

I feel optimistic.

 

Let's hope so but my concern is he owns 4 clubs and I don't think will be high on his priority list but on the other hand we can't be worse off

 

I would suggest as his most recent investment and given the fact that we are an English club just one league below the Premier League........(the most globally watched league in the world)......that we will actually be his number one priority.

 

Sorry super when you say one signing today did you mean a new owner or new player cos I can't find any news on this

 

Good point but the league were in is also the hardest league to get out of so would rather see stability before trying to rejoin the premier league

 

Completely agree, any attempt at the premier league should be measured, stable and sustainable. Too many teams have fallen by the way-side chasing the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

I fear we are getting well ahead of ourselves here......lets ensure we stay in the league we are in first!

 

Anyone who takes over a club outside of the Premiership does so because they have an emotional attachment to the club, or they want that Premiership money. It depends on the patience of said owner.

Astrit Ajdarevic will be announced shortly. He was at Sparrows this morning - on loan from Liege.

EDIT

http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/86115-Transfer-News/page111 - PP put this up on here earlier

EDIT 2

The clubs just announced it

 

Sorry but I believe we will be his No 2 club after Standard, next season they will be Champions League..... I can see some loans going both ways... perhaps Poyet going to Standard for a six months loan?

 

He's apparently looking to get out of Liege accoring to some of their supporters on Facebook and Twitter. Get CL and sell up they think.
