Owner Roland Duchatelet demands EFL acquire Charlton
I’ve read it and I’ve read it again and basically it’s the EFL, and by virtue of voting through rule changes, other clubs fault that Charlton are where they are? Same rules as everybody else – baffling! https://t.co/0LgS6WMtfd

Charlton Athletic owner Roland Duchatelet proposed in a fans forum last night that the EFL buy Charlton Athletic from him.
What exactly is the point of the "fit and proper" test when people like him & the Oyston's are allowed to own a football club?

On Tuesday @Sjopinion10 asserted that Roland Duchatelet was ‘away with the fairies’.
Today, Roland proposes that the @EFL buy Charlton as they would pass their own Fit and Proper Test and then lease the ground from him. You genuinely couldn’t make it up. #cafc— CharltonLife.com (@CharltonLife) February 28, 2019
Is there any sane #cafc fan left who wishes to defend Roland Duchatelet?
Answers on a postage stamp.

I wouldn't be surprised if Roland Duchatelet's next plan was to go on Dragons' Den.

Bizarre statement here from Charlton Athletic owner Roland Duchatelet in which he "demands that the EFL acquires his football club". (It's because he blames the EFL for relaxing financial rules and therefore making Charlton's life harder.) https://t.co/tNTbSGaX7X

The statement signs off with this phrase from Roland Duchâtelet, the owner of Charlton Athletic Football Club.
“Therefore the owner demands that the EFL acquires his football club.”
I am speechless. #cafc
