I was down the Valley earlier and I saw the first signing of the new regime down there. Shouldn't really be posting this but...
Hate to burst your fake bubble, but next time can you make it factually correct.
We already have a number 11 in Fosu, so its impossible Neymar would get the 11 shirt, unless it was sanctioned by the Football League to change Fosus number

Good match to be in the posh seats tomorrow at then
I was in the posh bit on new years day (centre circle) and began to think I'd been mistaken for a stinking rich potential buyer and was the cause of all this latest takeover frenzy. It's about as close as I'll ever get to being stinking rich
The bottom line is that I will never ever forget and never ever forgive that gutless old fart or that spineless harlot for the hurt or pain they have caused me and all us Charlton fans over the last five years and tearing up and destroying all the good work Chrissy Powell did to try and get us to be a competitive Championship club. Never ever!

we're you in the Jonny Williams picture?
No, thankfully I was sat just a bit further back. Never been one for the limelight!
This is the sole reason why I didnt boycott - After five years of having something else to do with my Saturday afternoon I probably wouldnt so didnt want to run the risk.

Never understand it and never will, you support the club through thick and thin regardless. How a billionaire will lose sleep over someone’s 250 quid escapes me.Lets be honest he dug his heels in for five years

True but they've equally stood by something they believe in and you could argue that by boycotting they've helped speed up the sale - Roland is so rich that £250 dont matter if he receives it or not but he's gotten rich by making every penny he can so will always appreciate every penny he gets!!
If you see an owner who you believe is destroying the club you love, it is hard to put money in his pocket. Yes, he may not lose any sleep over your money, but it does have a collective power in reminding him what a failure he is amongst other things. And this may or may not help him decide it isn't worth it in the end.

Protests and boycotts can be personal, too. It might be the principle of not giving money to a figure you don't support, rather than necessarily directly looking to hurt RD. Perhaps swing voting is a serviceable analogy - vote for what you stand for et al.

But can you get moments back in life by being stubborn. ? He must have done something right life to get the wealth he has,let’s be honest people were doing cartwheels when he bought us and found out his wealth.
Before I get excited over this latest saga, which I don’t except as a done deal until it’s done, I want to know a few things about the new owner/s. Namely, what is their intentions for our club? Will they finance it in a way that it be able to compete? Will they continue with the policy of putting our young talent in the shop window to sell after a handful of games? If they are , as we suspect Australians, will we end up being part of an Aussie network ? I won’t be buying a season ticket until I know they share the same feelings as I do for Charlton Athletic. God help us if Bruce Thurman turns up at the training ground unannounced.

They've not really missed any moments under Roland have they though? - Maybe getting to see a future England star in Defence
End of the day he'd still have reason to be here if he was getting good attendances; with those figures going down it highlighted his failures (like what Muttley mentions) and eventually made him realise there wasnt any reward out of owning us so decided amongst other factors to give up

He never about us before he bought us, got a weekly or monthly report as all owners would from the CEO or MD. Looks at the bottom line every six months not the attendances. At least he has openly put his hands up in open forum and admitted mistakes were made, and I am sure even those who hate him the most he has bank rolled the club and has taken nothing out just kept it afloat as any owner of a football club would have done.
What moments - relegation? There are people in life that let people sh*t on them beacuse they can't do anything to stop it and people who stand up and say I'm not having it. The first category are the Sue Parkes of this world and the second try to do what they think is right. If the world was full of these people, kids would still be sent up chimneys! I have been a boycotter, but a rubbish one. I still go to most games although I have stopped buying a season ticket and try not to buy anything from the club outside of a ticket. I admire those that feel strongly enough to force themselves not to go and have a stronger resolve than me.
Personally, I think it is important that some people continued to go and some boycotted. I liken it to our Sellout days. The club needed the few supporters that followed them there, of which I was one, and equally it needed those that were never going to accept that move. At the time I felt it was only damaging the club to boycott, but had they not boycotted, I doubt we would have had the memorable years we did back at the Valley.

Because the thing that the mega rich hate more than anything else is...losing money. And for every boycotted made that number larger and larger until he realised he had to go sooner rather than later. As he was miles away, we were a huge red number on a sheet of paper to him.
4 boycotters here who will return the moment he has gone, still going away and all booked for Shrewsbury, lets hope a trip to the Valley is not far away, I will never forgive Duchatalet for the last few years.

It was clearly a joke based on @Rufus_Ambition original joke.
Namely, what is their intentions for our club?
Will they finance it in a way that it be able to compete?
