I don't know like. Charlton's proposed takeover just got blown out by the EFL's fit and proper test, and from what I've read about Storey he should be f***ing failing it too. A bit of a concerted push from us could help get him barred.

Which I honestly think we should hope for - read about him in F1, the man is definitely a crank and perhaps a crook.

I’m aware of his past I’m not defending it. But if this bid is real he’s only 15% of it. Why are we trying to get a consortium barred because less than a fifth of it is a wrongun.

FPP are who everyone wanted last year and have wanted since because they're rich but in reality we've no idea of their intentions and whether or not they'd be good guys if we're being honest

Can confirm what Storey said if it Is aimed at FPP ties in with what I was told last year when they were looking at buying the club, they arent looking to throw big money at the club and view it purely as a business transaction.....my source was impeccable (since sacked by Donald)

The fact that we are sitting here, in full knowledge of everything he has said on the record, asking "if his bid is real" should give you more than enough warning. We shouldn't be anywhere f***ing near him, no matter the money behind him.

It’s canny hypocritical really. Everyone was owa the knot with FPP and going on about how we’d be the richest club in the uk etc but no one knew what their plans were. They could quite easily have been just as useless as Donald, they’ve got no footballing experience or anything. They’re just held up as this altruistic entity who were going to pump money into the club and town with absolutely nowt to back it up.

It’s right to be cautious about this wacko but the Donald situation has proven we need to hold all our owners to account until they prove themselves, no matter who it is.

I was one thinking it was all shite but why would you come all the way up here if you know there is nothing in it? Nobody is that desperate to go to such lengths. If there was no funds Stewart wouldn't even entertain him coming up here to talk with anyone at the club, got to be something in it with backers involved. Will give him a chance, something has to change and hopefully he can turn it around.

I disagree, my priority is Donald out, I don't think we, nor the EFL have the right to choose who buy's the thing as long as they can purchase the thing outright.
