Yes, it's all gone very quiet... I'm happy to take one for the team, and be proven wrong tomorrowdaveydanger said:Nothing posted on this thread for 6 hours... Must be a record.
The takeover is off, Roland is preparing for another 20 years of glorious leadership3 -
There will be a lot of eyes on the directors box tomorrow I reckon.1

'Bite Size' has dropped three pages down. What sort of a takeover thread is that?
To bump, or not to bump: that is the question?0 -
everyone too scared to post on here just in case what they say is incorrect and the floods of tears that might arrive if so10

Tonight's game may have the new owner in the directors box.
A new mysterious bidder with cash upfront whacked on the table in the last minute..a straight simple yes or no, take it or leave it or shut the f*ck up old man... type offer.
According to my sources I have been led to believe that the club are going to get taken over by pot noodle LTD
Deal will be done tommorow. If I'm wrong hang me out to dry and take away my membership5 -
Today's the day. Well maybe. If we want it to happen enough that might make it happen. #believe0

Today is the day I went for and I’m still convinced.
Announcement will come at 1:252 -
No news is normally good news isn’t it ?3

You'd better be right. I've promised myself that I'm giving up this thread for Lent. (Has the added advantage that I can keep eating creme eggs.)Leeds_Addick said:Today is the day I went for and I’m still convinced.

So do we think today we will have a surprise prior to kickoff?
It's not how we normally do things is it.....but wouldn't it be good
If you were about to buy a football club (for say £45m) - and be widely hailed as the salvation - would you just do a press conference and ease in sideways or would you go for arriving on a jetpack, handing the match ball to the ref and then grab the mic and announce who you are and announce your target is champions league football within 5 years.27 - Sponsored links:

Bit like Michael Knighton in full Man U kit on the pitch a few years ago... that went well.Swisdom said:So do we think today we will have a surprise prior to kickoff?

I'd also announce that I was playing right midfield that night and would do so from time to time 'when I feel like it'.Swisdom said:So do we think today we will have a surprise prior to kickoff?

..look how that worked out1 -
I wouldn't ideally want my first game as owner to be in front of a very small crowd on a cold, wet Tuesday evening. I'd wait until the MK Dons away game is out of the way, announce on Sunday 18th and watch the ticket sales for Shrewsbury on the 24th to steadily climb, then make my appearance before that game.Swisdom said:So do we think today we will have a surprise prior to kickoff?

Deflection. That's the best way to guarantee media coverage.Swisdom said:So do we think today we will have a surprise prior to kickoff?

For instance, the company buying Charlton organising an exclusive media release to announce they're the new title sponsor of the Grand National, tonight. Then, at that media announcement, slip in the fact that they've just acquired Charlton too.
So, if you want to know who Charlton's new owners are, stay tuned to tonight's Grand National media announcement.0 -
Sorry, Swizz ...... I just had to fix it for you.Swisdom said:

After tonight 4 out of the next 5 games are away from home. I’d wait until the run-up to the home match against Fleetwood on 17th March. It’ll be a glorious, warm for the time of year, day, and the club will then undergo a period of time forever known as the “Spring Clean” as it rids itself of any remnants of Roland’s failed social experiment. We will sent Tone out on loan to Subway for the remainder of his contract.Davo55 said:
