I think with the healthy relationship that we have with Palace we are more likely to get him on loan than if we were competing with other clubs for his perm signature And that relation is down to SG I think you come across as a great admirer of Gallen mate I think there is more to being good at recruitment than being mates with Dougie Freeman Gallen has been a decision maker within a team which has been a complete failure other the last few years Let’s not forget our owner saying we had a top 4 budget last season yet we finished 10th…. I would have thought in any other commercial business that would result in failure and a major rethink on that side of the business I still have major concerns with our transfer business until the new owners take over and they bring in a professional head of recruitment

Just quickly skimming that PS update,all Documentation not fully submitted yet!?....am I reading that right? I don't expect the EFL to fast track us,but we could be what worse case,I don't know a month? From being signed off? I know patience is needed,and it'll be worth it in the long run....but we can't expect targets to sit tight and wait.I would like to think they would,but I'm sure again hesitation/red tape will leave us with 2nd,3rd,4th choices. Alfie May will have options,would've been a good start IMHO. May as two options us or Cheltenham we are the only club to make an offer for him I disagree mate,IF Cheltenham are willing to part with him I suspect he'll have plenty of teams interested linked so far (rumoured) to be interesting... Wrexham Derby Gills I was hoping location MIGHT swing it for us,but who knows?

All sounds really positive news about our future mate My only concern though is the here and now and for all of Storries bluster about us still having a top 6 budget I just can’t see TS spending money on his way out Ideally the new owners will come in ASAP but in the interim other clubs will be swooping in and bagging all the best quality frees and loans that are available now leaving us to play catch up Maybe the May senario now is that we will have to wait for the new owner confirmation before we can pay the fee for him…….thoughts? No that’s not what was said .. if that was the case why would we put an offer in and have it accepted ?? So after hearing everything on this forum this afternoon and bearing in mind posters on the other site have said TS wil not be paying any fees until we have been sold do you still believe we have had a fee agreed with Cheltenham for May? Just asking as you tend to ask Reams what is going on all the time and then feret the info given onto the other forum as if it is your inside scoop👍

May as two options us or Cheltenham we are the only club to make an offer for him No offer has been made, I have had that confirmed this morning. We have asked to his availability what he would cost but no official bid has yet been put on the table. I have gone back to the guy who mentioned to me that he was having a medical yesterday and he has told me that he had beenn misled. Shame this. I'm not saying by any means landing Alfie May is the be all and end all,but to be rumoured to be addressing our lack of goals this early in the window was encouraging to see.

Derby is way closer to Cheltenham than Charlton is and Wrexham is basically the same distance as us.

I'm going to say this one more time. As of 3pm yesterday when I spoke to somebody very in the know, NO bid had been made at that point for Alfie May. This person could not possibly be any closer to knowing how true that was. I've had a good read of that article from this morning too and have to correct a poster on another forum who thinks that appears there to be an agreement in the SPA for TS to buy players within limits prior to the takeover happening. I take this to mean that SE7 have given their permission? ......Sorry that's not true. As I stated yesterday, there is no buy now 'pay later' arrangement with the current owner and neither should there be. It could blow the whole takeover out of the sky if it was found that little arrangement existed. The EFL would launch a thorough investigation that could delay the process. They would take a very dim view of any potential inbound owner(s) trying to influence player signings. Basically if May does arrive it will be under Sandgaard's tenure.

Have a funny feeling the transfer window will be over by the time this takeover gets over the line, and if that's the case we're fucked again next season.

Windows ruined imo. Takeovers not going to be a quick process. By the time it happens it will be the end of preseason. Reminds me of the sangarrds first window where he brought something like 12 players in 3 weeks. All the best deals like May for example get snapped up early doors. Unless we have a championship sized budget. The seasons ruined

Unless we have a championship sized budget. The seasons ruined Deals like May? A 30 year old who will cost well in excess of £1.2 million made up of cost and wages. We could end up paying him 5-7k a week for not scoring goals. There is no evidence he can reproduce what he has over the last two seasons. It's not like we can shift him on if he doesn't. People going well over the top with this and it's becoming to become a little bit tedious. There will be enough of a budget to make us a top six side next season. You don't win anything in June! Comments like the season is ruined is very OTT, dramatic in the extreme. I have no concerns at all personally.

Location in what way? Derby is way closer to Cheltenham than Charlton is and Wrexham is basically the same distance as us. Apparently, he is from Gravesend and has his family living close! This was what I was referring to. COULD TS sanction a deal that relates to a players performance? Not just a reimbursement from the new owners for laying out initially? say for example May comes in and becomes part of a successful season(play offs achieved,Promotion).Could something of that nature be outlined in the sales agreement? I'm just wondering,there must be examples of other clubs in ownership transition managing a window and not playing catch up when eventually given the green light. Sorry for rambling,just impatient and already praying we can make a go of next season.

I have said what I know until Im blue in the face. I have repeated there is no need for concern on multiple occasions but a few people are not listening or not prepared to take my word for it and therefore continuing with their own made up version of events. I have told everyone where we are at....take it or leave it.

Lots of our fans seem very dramatic. I’ll be worried if the takeover takes 4-6 weeks from now to complete.
We’re currently a few days into the window. Let’s take a breath. It’s far from over.
Hopefully we’re celebrating the takeover completion in a couple of weeks. If Wigan can complete it inside a few weeks (different circumstances obviously) then we should be able to sort ours inside a month.

Only at Charlton would you see new owners being called chancers by fans for not buying a player they have never declared an interest in.
