    I sense that Murray is just telling us what we want to hear.

    In my opinion he should be concentrating on getting season ticket prices for next season sorted.

    I'd be surprised if Murray has any interest in that. Presumably they would only reissue last season's anyway. But I think any season ticket announcement ahead of a takeover should be met with derision.
    The point is was trying to make is that as Murray is really the only main member of the SMT left he needs to sort this out
    I can't believe you've overlooked the fact Mr Cahones is more than helping!
    I can arrange my own sandwiches
  • Well I for one will not renew my season ticket if uncle Roland is still here.

    It was touch and go this season but enough is enough.

    You'll buckle.

    You'll buckle.
    Accrington away
    Burton away
    Plus a few others.

    Other than that I shall go to Bromley

    Murray isn’t part of the management team and he won’t be interested in doing that. He’ll turn up and watch training and talk to Robinson and maybe be on the end of the phone for Keohane if he’s lucky.
  • So who is actually running the club at the moment?

    It's interesting (and disturbing) to note the downswing in mood over the past few days. Have I missed some bad news or is it just that the takeover is taking longer than anticipated?

    I agree with this. First time in forever I can't be bothered to post a match report, I don't know the kick off time next weekend for the Rugby but it is a pull (Ireland being in with a chance of the grand slam) compared to what I anticipate to be miserable dreariness ay the Valley.
    It is like catching some kind of illness, but for me i am simply losing interest, genuinely, and for anybody that knows me, they will be surprised.
    My mood regarding Charlton was last this low when we went to Selhurst, and it is hard to know if any enthusiasm will ever return.
    I know exactly what you mean.

    I've missed more games this season than any other since I've had a season ticket.

    Part of that has been down to health but on other occasions I've consciously chosen to watch the rugby rather than Charlton or do something family related.

    Home matches are so predictable. Twenty to thirty minutes where we look quite decent and MIGHT score and then sit back and eventual capitulation epitomised by the phrase the opposition 'keeper didn't have a save to make worthy of the name.

    My enthusiasm is at an all time low and, regardless of owner, I'm not sure if I will bother to renew.
  • I will renew with a new owner probably, in some kind of hope (I have had two seasons without a season ticket), but I have lost faith in the notion that a new owner will pitch up anyway.

    Don't give up mate. Keep the faith.
    New owners for next season guaranteed.

    Onwards and upwards.

    Would love to know where Robin gets his sniff from.
    Most of it from Belgium. Occasionally Hungary, Spain or Germany.

    Following @oohaahmortimer's lead, I had a cheese-induced dream over the weekend that the takeover was being finalised today. For some reason I was summoned to the Valley to witness the consummation of this momentous event. Unfortunately the identity of our new owner(s) remained frustratingly elusive, as they appeared to be obscured by a haze... maybe it was just a mirage, induced by fatigue and too many dashed hopes.

    Consistent with this, the official announcement (WIOTOS with Flaggy) was agreed by the parties to be "low key". Something along the lines of "Mr Duchatelet has transferred his shares in the club to new owners as of today. Further details are confidential at this moment but a further announcement will be made in the coming weeks."

    As with all good dreams, elements from my childhood were thrown into the mix. In particular, my journey to the Valley was via Kinveachy Gardens, which hasn't been my route of choice since the early 80's. So maybe our new owner is ... Mark Hulyer.

    Is that a Krafty cheese-induced hint that its deffo happening today?

    Trying to make some sense of it all,
    But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
