Excellent post @chaperonek9 The euphoria of Duchatelet’s exit has been replaced with wariness as to what now follows. ESI couldn’t be having a worse January if they tried. My hunch is that Matt Southall will play the “clubs are ramping their prices” card up on Friday night ...which won’t be believed.
All the whilst he owns The Valley and Sparrows Lane he's more of a threat now than he has been since January 2014.
Probably. I'm sure.whoever meets Southall from your cherry picked fan sets will get.to ask set questions that.he can answer. The 3 most.important questions definitely won't get asked. 1) What happens contractually if you are not able to buy the valley and Sparrows in 6 months? 2). Why is Tahoon Nimer not a name associated with East Street Investments on Companies House and 3) Who isTahoon Al Nisrat
I will be amazed if Southall admits that he told a whopper and confirms we do not own The Valley and Sparrows Lane. It all stinks.
In his program notes he says the purchase is being done in two stages, and the land is the second part. If he is being honest he won't have any problem clarifying the terms of the deal, and reassuring us that the legal obligation is watertight. If............
Didn't he state that at the beginning Elfs? Buying the land would involve a bundle of legal stuff, so they signed a promise to buy within six months in order to concentrate on the playing side.
At the beginning he stated that they had purchased The Valley, then he backtracked. He'd do well posting on here
and what have they done exactly on the playing side?.... other than a net loss of two players three including that Welsh guy?
Given the arselicking composition of the Fan’s Groups due to meet Matt Southall on Friday, perhaps we should suggest some of the most important questions that require answers. Can the role of Museum Director become a salaried position under ESI. Can such a role be restricted to applicants who’s first name is Ben. Can free drinks - so cruelly abolished by Waggott - be restored to certain fans who’s initials are “RE” on match days. Can the highly successful Valley Express Coach service be restored, and can we suggest a prominent fan with absolutely no business expertise to run it. This fan also has the initials “RE”. Can Rick’s socialist sidekick Wendy ‘Far From’ Perfect also be reemployed by ESI as Deputy Coach person. She has been hugely missed. Can ESI provide a free match day private aircraft to and from Prague. This would help a well known pompous windbag get to a few more Charlton games. Can Lee Bowyer be replaced immediately by Ben Hayes. The latter’s knowledge of all things Charlton make him the outstanding candidate. Would ESI consider being taken over by wealthy and successful Aussies, and has Matt Southall read any good books about Jimmy Seed recently?
He won't see it till he's back from Abu dabu du though - he's gone for a beer meeting with the Sheikh
