    Pretty cringey seeing the way The Usual Suspects are tagging her on Twitter.

    She’s a breath of fresh air as far as CAST is concerned.

    It's interesting that she confirms that Elliott was just the front man for the consortium.

    I would just like to know if it is correct that Nimor was the original front man but double-crossed his partners.

    Also it's interesting that if LD had prepared its injunction properly it would now own the Club.

    We came very very close to disaster

    The sad collection of cnuts that was ESI was only ever interested in a quick profit.
    It's impossible to know of course, but it may be that in an alternative future where they were not quite so useless, Thomas Sandgaard would just have bought the Club from them instead of buying it from Roland.

    Their own incompetence and greed was their undoing.
    Chris Farnell might well be a slippery little bugger, but he isn't half as clever as he thinks he is. And the pond life he associates with will never achieve what he wants simply because they are all charlatans and crooks as well. Each one of them fancies himself as a successful wheeler-dealer, but they're nothing more than deluded failures chasing a payday that's beyond their wits.

    Farnell and his buddies should have stuck to scavenging off small time failing concerns that (unfortunately) nobody really cares about, rather than a football Club at the heart of its local community - admittedly on its knees after years of bad stewardship - but supported and if necessary defended by thousands of loyal, life-long fans. Some of whom are willing and able to fight back in any number of different ways.

    If ESI/LD had managed to hurt our Club more severely than they actually did, the consequences would have been proportional. That still holds true, which is why they should have walked away by now. They should be thanking Thomas Sandgaard for making them irrelevant figures of derision and laughter, rather than fools who did something very stupid that they would have badly regretted.

    One way or another, Charlton Athletic would have survived in the longer term.
    I'm not belittling the danger we were in by saying that. I accept that administration & expulsion were real and growing threats because of Elliott & Farnell. They came close to wrecking even Roland's plans, probably making the old scrote regret selling CAFC to them and deciding to sort things out with TS instead.

    Never have a community of fans ever had more reason to be thankful to a decent man.
    Instead of spreading risible smears about him, Farnell and his freak-show failures should give up their cheap tactics and forlorn dreams of a pay-off and just go away.

    It had better not be a job.
    We don't want any of the ESI era directors anywhere near our Club, ever again.

    If Mihail is some kind of unsung hero let's have all the details. Nothing swept under the carpet.

    Thomas Sandgaard did buy the Club from ESI, @lardiman the Tahnoon Nimer and Matt Southall version. The rent of The Valley and training ground were negotiated with RD.
