Meadow spoke with Southwark Council on Monday (which is at least a start) and the following was reported on Twitter by The Independent's football correspondent:

Update: Meadow told Southwark at the meeting today that their stance remains the same. Next step is for Southwark to submit a written offer, but don't expect it to be accepted...

It's an improvement given that Meadow only a couple of weeks said they weren't going to speak to anyone. And if they reject Southwark's next bid, the government has said that they'll appoint an independent mediator to go in ? which is more of a threat to Meadow's position than the Council's. So it's slow progress.
And ultimately, the council can invoke a CPO. So Meadow can not win on this. One way or another they will be forced to sell to the council. It is just a question of how much for. Meadow really couldn't care less about the football club though - and that is perhaps the most ruthless aspect to this.

    • Maurice fixed a blocked pipe in our bathroom, was communicative and reliable during the enquiry process, personable and professional during the fix and reasonable in his pricing. Would recommend.
    • Dishing the dirt is generally fine when it comes to politicians and in Farage's case he often deserves it but  nothing illegal  has been done. It is not illegal for him to give his partner a sizeable amount of money with which to buy a house and have it registered in her name. He is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger and so he most likely is making plans to minimise IHT. There is a sliding scale for IHT but basically a gift is free of IHT if the gift is made 7 years before the donor dies. Farage is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger. In 7 years time, if he lives that long, he will be 71 years old. Given that he smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish, his odds on getting beyond 71  years may be pretty slim.  A similar  process is followed by the "bank of mum and dad"  where parents  give money to their kids to fund purchase of a property. Many who are not cash rich will mortgage their home and so release equity to fund their kids property. We did it as have many of our friends.
