I'm expressing an interest in buying Charlton.

Steve
Juventus

Charlton Athletic
12th League One

Manager: N/A
Stadium Capacity: 12,500
Average Attendance predicted this season: 1,000

Value of club: £-2.5 million
Minimum buy out price: £5 million

Bank Balance: £1.6 million
Debt: £0
Bank Loans: £16.7 million

Notes:
Charlton failed to recover from administration and so were covered by a £9 million bank loan early in Season 5. Bank loans incur lower interest rates than normal Bank Balance debts. Interest in Charltons debt is due to increase £0.4 million this week.

With a negative club value due to the high bank loan owned by the club Charlton fall under the 'minimum £5 million buy out' ruling which applies to any club with no chairman or who is worth less than £5 million (debt can make clubs worth minus money).

FA will post to allow bidding on the club to begin 3 days after the initial interest was made into the club.
