    Out of interest.....what are the registered owners of other football clubs owned by Dubai based ownership? 
    Don’t think we are owned by Dubai. If I remember (and I do because I just checked with google) there are several (google says 7) states in the united Arab Emirates and Dubai is the main city of one (not ours) and  Abu Dhabi is the second largest capital of the second state. 
    The easy way to remember it is that the people of Dubai dont like the Flinstones, but the people of Abu Dhabi do.



    (Well someone had to!)
    I did.

  • Will there be a press conference so we can find out their short, medium and long term plans?
  • Let’s hope it coincides with Bowyers contract 
  • Better start picking up some points otherwise this euphoria could go tits up very quickly.

    Am I the only one in anguish over this news.  I mean, last two years I have done dry Jan and Feb.  This year I even posted on CL I would do the same and now on only the second of January I am going to fail.  Driven to drink by a Middle Eastern consortium seems a little ironic to me.

    Get in. Delighted. Of the 4 who gave up their season tickets 2.5 years ago, 5 are coming back... We have picked up an extra!

  • Owners need to show their metal now. Relegation beckons.

    I think you need to get off the computer now.

    The owners I’m sure have already got a plan in place to back Gallen and Bows to ensure we avoid relegation 4 months after taking over. 

    Relax, take it slow and let the good times roll!

    We’re too good to go down ? Next three fixture are West Brom (2nd) PNE (10th) but Away and Fulham (5th). Those are tough. We are in the shite make no mistake. Our form is the worst in the league. 
    You should have watched the game tonight and then you would not be so worried. 
    We lost

    If only Football was as black and white like that
  • But we did lose ?

    Yes we did thanks to a deflection, but the performance (against a top six team) wasnt that of a team looking relegated

    Hence why Football isnt as black and white as your claiming
  • Football isn’t but results are. We have been unbelievably unlucky with injuries but our results and points since Millwall are relegation form. Hope it changes as players come back from injury and we sign a few but it’s going to be hard.

  • My usual early morning check on Newsnow expecting nothing other than another injury and surprise surprise, the take over finally happens. Good feeling, but now the real work begins. Onwards Addicks and hopefully upwards.Congratulations due to @Doucher vindication for all the stick he took.....probably the only real ITK take over update poster here.
  • Bowyer has done a remarkable job this season and all we see is what he has to cope with in and around the stadium pitch. I hope this is a well
    deserved relief for him, he gets the contract he deserves and finally gets a few quid to cover for our depleted squad. Oh and Roland has gone - yayyyyy. Let better times roll!
