It happens in other sports. Guess its the logical conclusion if you want to force and owner out but there is no potential buyer.I dont get why they would buy it?
I cant make too much sense of it but it reads that between fans and the EFL's rules nobody will take over?
Protests are one thing, Charlton fans travelling to Belgium to trash his house and the houses of people he knows is a bit much.it cannot have been news to him that when things go so remarkably wrong with football clubs there is the potential for civil disorder and possible criminal damage. Charlton weren’t the first club to protest against the owners and they won’t be the last.

Nah, if I was him I'd be more likely to hold on to it to piss the people off that attempted to do that shit to me.Agreed....a bit much...but more likely to ultimately get the result the fans want than a mild mannered march, letters of protest to a local newspaper and a few whistles. Unfortunately keeping within the law is less likely to have impact than stepping outside it.

What about the people who have had their houses vandalised just for happening to know him and have nothing to do with taking over Charlton?Oh don’t get me wrong I’m neither condoning it nor saying that behaviour should be expected. It’s just that he knew (some of) what he was getting himself into.

Couple of points:
1) it cannot have been news to him that when things go so remarkably wrong with football clubs there is the potential for civil disorder and possible criminal damage. Charlton weren’t the first club to protest against the owners and they won’t be the last.
2) you don’t have to spend a fortune and be competitive. No one makes you. If the infrastructure of the club cannot support the levels of spending required to be in said league, then it’s probably going to transpire that you will eventually get relegated. I’d suggest that we are probably a good case study for that; a team that spunked good money after bad in the name of being competitive, dropped down to the bottom league and ok we’re not quite breaking even but we’re steady and making progress.
That said, I do agree on the fact that owners can’t be expected to just pour money in constantly and if they stop then the fanbase turn on them. Not that it’d ever be possible, but I’d be intrigued if there were to be an overall wage/budget cap introduced forcing clubs to be more sustainable.
