Report from Cardiff suggests Dalman is not out

A report from Cardiff suggests that Mehmet Dalman has not given up on a Charlton deal, although he is focusing on issues at Cardiff City where he is chairman for now. Over the years I have found Wales Online to be quite reliable on football matters, although it is one of those sites with so much junk on it that it can take a time to load: Bid still alive

Contrary to what was said by the Evening Boris, the money owed to former directors is not the real issue, but the overall debt of the club and the money that would be needed to make Charlton a real fighting force in the Championship. I know that many fans think that the skill of Lee Bowyer and his assistants, and the spirit of the team, will be enough to at least secure a mid-table place but this overlooks the considerable resources that most Premier League 2 clubs have.

The overall judgment is that a successful bid is 'unlikely', but still hanging by a thread. The sale price is given at £33m, but what is never clear is what happens about the mountain of debt.
