I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around what's gone on there over the last few seasons. Seems to have been one shyster after another. Feel for Bowyer, a decent young manager who's been dealt a shocking hand.
Suffice to say the manner in which we were cheated at The Valley in 2013 and then again in 2019, means many will have limited sympathy for them.
The EFL have rejected 3 of the proposed directors under the O and D test;https://www.fourfourtwo.com/news/charlton-proposed-takeover-blow-as-three-director-applications-rejected-by-efl-1596807350000

It is only five weeks before the scheduled start of next season.If they need buyers and quick, how can the EFL vet the potential new buyers in that time frame given that they were waiting eight months to come up with this decision over ESI.
Agreed SM, but surely the EFL could have pushed ESI a bit harder for the information.Also, any information that the new owners come up with would have to be thoroughly checked.Anyway, whatever happens I will be amazed if Charlton are refused permission to start the season..

What do you think the EFL should do to get information that's a harder push than that?

What do you think the EFL should do to get information that's a harder push than that?The EFL should have asked for information from ESI in January when they took over and still hadn’t got it until this week.In my opinion they should have pushed much harder to get the information instead of waiting until a few days ago before making the threat.Do you think that eight months is a reasonable amount of time to wait?

HMRC don't have to push me for my tax return. In the same way to this situation, the new owners will have known what was required and also the consequences of not fulfilling that request.
