  • The takeover has to complete today as the prophesied page landed today.

    Not been there for years , seriously is that London Bridge , looks amazing !
    Is there still that sticky little boozer next door to the ticket office where the station split and you had to show tickets to get to platforms heading towards Sidcup, bexleyheath etc
    I cannot remember the name but I do remember the bloody thing did not have a toilet and you had to pop along to the concourse area to have a piddle.
    The Oasthouse, long gone
    No bog, stunk of puke but had an ok jukebox.
    So is that three stars or four?
  • Christ. Just how disappointing is this going to be if it’s just another false dawn.

    This would be the worst, as it would mean at least another five months of Duch.
  • Hmm Kish has taken it down now maybe he’s jumped the gun

    Can we not talk about guns in front of our prospective new American friends.
  • And an excellent response, @IdleHans
  • You’re right of course Nug.
    But those who have sought to cause division I didn’t particularly have time for pre Douchbag and as such avoided them at all costs.
    No change for me so.
    COYR!

  • Just spoke to Jim White. His info comes not from Roly but the other side. He says Tuesday/Wednesday.

    Game changer
  • Given his direct line to Roly I reckon he would have checked with him before sharing it. Hopefully means both sides are on the same page.

    Charlton fans must and will all unite under the new owners to get us back to where we belong. We seem to have stumbled onto a good manager and assistant manager so that will make things easier. It seems a bit unfair, but the successful future is not about us whether we are boycotters or attenders but it is about those people out there who don't care as much as we do. Give them the product and we have seen what can be achieved.

    My wife is not a great fan of football but when I first met her I took her to the Valley. This was during the period when the place was rocking. She didn't need to know anything about football, the rocking atmosphere was intoxicating. She wanted to go to every game. I pity the younger fans who have not experienced it. Sir Alex Ferguson commented once that it was one of the most intimidating places to go to. You came out of the place buzzing. The Valley can be one of the best arenas to watch football or one of the most depressing. We all need to do what little we can to get it back to the former. That might be just encouraging some mates to go along. We all do our bit and we will get back up there. COYRs.

    Couldn’t agree more, I remember the very lean days at the Valley, Selhurt and Upton, where crowds of 5k plus were considered bumper, Let’s all unite under the new ownership and get this great club back to where it belongs 😊 Not long now !!!

  • Well if it is the Atlassian fellas, here is a picture of Scott Farquhar and Mike Cannon-Brookes. So we can keep a look out in the directors box today :wink:
  • As long as anyone who was Pro Roland after the first year puts their hands up and apologises I have no problem moving on .
    It takes a big person to admit they’re wrong .
    Just kidding

    I was wrong! 😉😂
  • Hold on so Jim White said it was going to be 24hrs, then 48hrs, then 72hrs, then Monday/Tuesday, now Tuesday/Wednesday?
    He seems desperate to cover all bases and (almost) be the first to break the news....
    Sounds like our regular FOMO on here.....

  • On my way to the game!! Pit stop at the Maxwell in Orpington first though 👍🏻🍺🍺
  • Can I ask what the 'ing' in 'WIOTOSING' on the thread heading stands for.

    I know the WIOTOS bit just confused by the ING

    Here's Farquhar old man in case he's there as well. (On the right)

    Dr Kish reporting its the Atlassian guys

    Seems he’s taken it down now...
    It’s that easy to get a random rumour going. People need to relax. We’ve been here so many times before.
    This with bells on

    I would piss myself if it was the Atlassian blokes.
    Why?
    Coz, what with the put downs by the self-appointed CL elders when the Atlassian guys were mentioned as 'it was a joke' or 'this is how fake news starts' or 'its definitely not them' to Airman now stating its American money - if it turns out that it is the Atlasssian blokes (regardless of how American you can make one of the them) would mean that basically everyone in the above category knows fuck-all really about whats going-on!

    That would be 99.999% of us. The0.001% being Doucher.
