Charlton still Plan B

David Gold and David Sullivan are reported to be making a bid for West Ham by the end of the week. Charlton would be Plan B if a price cannot be agreed for the Hampsters: Bid

This is a different line from that being peddled by Pravda which claims that Gold has given the Addicks a six week deadline over a takeover. Here is the story: Takeover

Charlton fans seem to be divided over the issue. It is probable that a Gold/Sullivan takeover would lead to a more hard nosed commercialism at The Valley, but maybe that is what the club needs. Our financial position remains perilous and even if we secure promotion, it will be difficult to fund the kind of squad needed to survive in the Championship.

Our recent Poll on CAFCPICKS had a pretty decent turn out and 82% voted in favour of a Sullivan Takeover. So yes, those fans are "divided" but the ratio is quite telling.
