I feel strangely very calm, I'm assuming because of the wait since the takeover was first announced and the years of hanging on to hope since RD saying he was selling up.
My self imposed absence from the Valley for a number of years will finally come to an end. At last the dark stain on the club can be cleaned away.
Let’s hope ESI have plans that’ll allow for a gradual, sustainable improvement in the playing squad. That’s all we can ask for really.
Dry January may be put on hold tonight :-)
bollox to that - i want a rapid and spectacular rise to football domination - now the efl are off our backs, we can start tapping into all that abu dhabi dosh - 'sheikh it up baby' - COYR!!!!
Now that it's completed it shows that the owners and management team have a bit of personality about them with the cliff hanger tweets and social media posts of recent weeks.
If fans, board, management and non- playing and playing staff can all pull together now this is gonna be some journey.
2020 is a new era for CAFC, the bar has been set low for 90% of our history.
So pleased they announced today, early in the window and on my Mum's birthday with her Charlton family around her. Just another strange coincidence that it's in DEAL in Kent when the news came through. (Brother's house) After hearing Red, red Robin played in a NT house on Monday and being told the second recording was made on December 5th 1947 by Al Jolson and then 2 Robins flying around the courtyard, it just had to be imminent !
In a moment of unbridled joy, I took all my clothes off and ran naked around the streets of my workplace, Billericay.
After my arrest, I mentioned to both of the officers attending that I was now a casual acquaintance of His Excellency whereupon they released me immediately and drove off crying at 90mph in their squad car.
ESi have bought a great football club,and they know it,we have got rid of RD he is now history and should recieve no more mentions.It is now up to the supporters to back the new owners to the hilt,any crowds under 20000 from now until seasons end will be an insult.I look forward to seeing some lifelong friends back at the valley who have boycotted,the past is done,COYR.
If I wasn't so happy I'd be penning a cross email to someone. BBC wankers reporting thus:
East Street Investments has completed its takeover of Championship club Charlton Athletic, ending Roland Duchatelet's spell as owner.
Much of Duchatelet's tenure was dominated by friction between the Belgian and a section of supporters and he has been trying to sell the club since the end of 2017.

Well done to all involved with the takeover. We've got our Charlton back

It's a beautiful day to have 2020 vision.
After my arrest, I mentioned to both of the officers attending that I was now a casual acquaintance of His Excellency whereupon they released me immediately and drove off crying at 90mph in their squad car.
Make of that what you will.
I can give up asking rhetorical questions about the takeover.
What's the point?
