The letter has been around for weeks. I don’t think Bassini will be taking us over. Surely even the EFL wouldn't pass Bassini for the Owner/Director test....or would they? Of course they would as Nimer has had 6 months of prevaricating the useless EFL. |

Just a heads up people after reading some comments. The letter is not fake. My mate has had no contact with ms or tn and quite frankly would not want to engage with him given the chance. The reasoning for the document being released is to prove what a horrible bunch this lot are not to show the club has been sold to bassini. There were comments within the last fortnight saying offers received were not right for the club. Again all lies as believe me if bassini had the funds they would of handed the liability over to him within seconds.

Sorry I should have quoted the post I was referring to. It states a fake letter is being circulated. Richard cawley stated bassini did have an agreement in place to purchase the club but could not complete this due to unknown issues. The letter confirms this. Again to show how poisonous ESI are.

Could someone explain the difference between a change of ownership at ESI (as stated on club website) and a sale which I presume would involve a new company being set up with no connection to ESI. Is there a practical difference? Does a change in ownership imply that board members would remain and only the shareholders are changing?

Richard Murray's reign at the Valley went into decline with the idiotic poaching of the Pslace manager, just to spite Simon Jordan. Les Reid was another flop. Pardew was excusable, but out stayed his welcome and then eight defeats was enough to give Parky a full time gig.
Having shown Curbs was a lucky break, he started looking for new owners. The Spivs were followed by RD, and apparently he brokered the deal that bought in Tweedledum and Tweedledee. And all this time his ego left him fighting tooth and claw to keep Varney from introducing anyone. Now there is a rumour we may have another bout of Murray lead ownership. Bassini would be a relief given the sort of scum Mureay thinks should be left in charge of our club. The man is getting to Southall levels of untouchability, and our current predicament has his fingers all over it. No more Mureay and his acquaintances.

I'd rather have RM than any of the lot we have had for the last few years and the ones we have now. At least he is Charlton through and through and has given this club and me as a supporter probably the happiest years I have had supporting this club. Really , the man who got us into this mess ! No he didn't. The fans themselves played a large part in getting us into this mess. Wasn't happy being in the Premiership, playing well above our station and resources but moaning that wasn't enough. Even many at the time saying Curbs should go and in the end he did. That was the start of the rot. Yes RM made mistakes 12 years ago but the ones that have come after him have made many more. We would never have ever had the time in the Premier League if it hadn't been for Richard Murray and for many years he kept this club going single handed and people should remember that. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough for some. |

My favourite Mureay moment. Having given Parkinson eight games to prove himself, and watched him fail to win one he gave him the job anyway. Parky was no ones idea of a saviour but he battled against a daft budget and tried. When the fanbase began asking for him to be sacked, Mureay actually went to the press and said if enough fans bought season tickets he would have enough cash to offload Parky. That's the Judas level of Muresy. Appoint a manager who couldn't cut the entrance exam, then hang him out to dry in the press. My respect for Parky began when he carried on trying to keep us afloat on the pitch when the owner behaved so badly, and I'm happy for any success he has enjoyed under better owners than ours. Murray showed the sort of person he is then, and the sort of owners he has attracted since are probably due to him attracting similar twats to himself in the football world.

Is there a practical difference? Does a change in ownership imply that board members would remain and only the shareholders are changing? I don’t think there’s any practical difference thesunisred If Panorama (Nimer) and Matt Southall sell ESI to a third party the Boards of both ESI and Charlton Athletic Football Company (CAFC) would change. Matt Southall would be toast because, as I explained above, Tahnoon Nimer has what are known as Drag-along rights which means he can force Southall to sell his shares in ESI. However, there are some major outstanding questions. First, concerning the legal action by former directors. Has that been resolved? Second, concerning the money ESI/CAFC owes to Roland Duchâtelet. It would be extraordinary if Duchâtelet does not have some influence in a change of control, which means he’d have to approve the deal. Then again, it wouldn’t be the first time Duchâtelet has engaged with the bizarre. Hope that helps and makes some sense. |

Not a fan of Murray but I’d much rather have him as our owner than Roland, Southall, Nimer and even Michael Glickstein put together!

Just wonder why anyone would want to keep the ESI name as it is so tarnished now. |

If the club is sold, I will expect Southall to be as awkward as can be. Demanding a payoff, suing for unfair dismissal...etc. Despite the immorality of it all, it would be no surprise me that those monies have gone forever! |

You can bet your life this isn't from Southall. Tit for tat. This whole business is a real shitshow. |

"The club has been informed by Panorama that the information that the club has been sold / will be sold to Mr Bassini or a company associated with him is not true"
This will come as a great relief to those fans who had worried that Charlton would become the latest in a series of Bassini-related footballing casualties.

I can exclusively reveal on ITTV that the new owners of CAFC is an international consortium, North Avenue Fidelity Finance (NAFF), headed in the UK by Dutch born Mat Zuidelijk. Mat made his name off the backs of the workers in the Dutch cockle picking industry as an agent earning him the nickname “de agent voor de kokkels”.
A spokesperson from their lawyers Norfolk and Chance based in the tiny Orkney village of Twatt confirmed “the deal is almost done, lock stock and barrel, with only a few hurdles to overcome”. It has also emerged there are other potential investors - Indian swimwear mogul Mahatma Kote founder of the Bhaji smugglers range, plus Thai pleasure parlour tycoon Hie di ho. The statement continued that Mrs Ho can see huge potential for opening one of her parlours in London. She recognises there is a need for much more pleasure in Floyd Road and Ho said “We look forward to offering our new experience Valley Goalden Rain to all the fans on match day, we know how they feel they have been pissed on by previous owners, so now come and piss on us instead!”
In another statement Mr Kote said “We know that football is the national sport in England and that Charlton are a big club with lots of history. It is therefore our ambition to have Charlton playing at the highest level in two years from now - the National League of England is where the club will be, that’s a promise we make to all fans”.
Mat Zuidelijk has pledged that full proof of funds will be made “soon” and Norfolk and Chance said papers have already been submitted to the appropriate authorities. The statement ended with the rallying cry of “Come on you Lions”.
Just to conclude I’m afraid I am unable to reveal my source, simply to say he’s not dodgy.
