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.

    • Exactly that.  From all their communications at the time I just assumed it was something that was going to be done anyway so I just went along with it.  As per Froggy’s suggestion above I just went out to have a look at the readings (for the first time ever!) and it said 000078,231.  That’s for just short of three years.  I’ve no idea how that would translate to an actual bill though.  
    • Thanks both! Unfortunately my mobile doesn't support a charging mat. I will try the place by the station, which is more convenient for me than Forest Hill Road  I'm avoiding Rye Lane as my daughter had a very bad experience at one of the shops there (I think it was a battery replacement and the "new"  battery failed almost immediately. Unfortunately she doesn't live in London and couldn't take it back) and there are so many I don't know which may be ok.
    • No, unlike power meters they can force one on you, whether you want one or not. They did on me, and it's on the stopcock in the pavement outside my house. They can also force you to accept metered charges. 
    • They said you didn’t have a meter even though you did? Utterly bizarre.   I also thought that the water company wasn’t allowed to fit a meter unless you asked for one.
