Decision day nears

Richard Cawley of the SLP has tweeted: 'The EFL have to make a decision publicly on whether Paul Elliott's consortium are able to pass their various tests and I'd say next week could be very, very significant in that respect.'

'At the moment Roland Duchatelet's stance is that he has a deal in place - with ESI - so he doesn't need to come to the negotiating table. But if PE's group did not get EFL approval then I'd imagine Duchatelet would sit down with Barclay and Varney.'

Cawley added: 'My understanding is that ex-directors only likely to step up their legal action if things play out the wrong way.'

From his Ramsgate fastness, VOTV editor Rick Everitt has tweeted: 'that the Varney/Barclay deal for Charlton is virtually done isn’t accurate, unfortunately. Interest is very much ongoing but until the EFL gives a decision on the current “owners” the approach can’t progress.'
