  • Lee Bowyer is only manager until either tomorrow evening, or after any play off games.
    Presumably if it all goes wrong especially tomorrow, we will have Congo Chris or Nobby Vinegar or Thomas Driesen in situ on Sunday.
  • Can I just say what happened to the club being sold in February then? No time for liars!

    Who lied?

    I can’t remember anyone stating this as a fact.

    It makes sense that someone as business savvy as RD would wait until he knows what division we'll be in next season. Elementary I would say. Equally so, the buyers will be just as savvy, so stalemate I think until next season's status is resolved.

    I blame Richard Murray. He is the only person who could have explained the playoffs to him.
  • Thought the difference in revenue is about £5m isn't it? Or so said the commentator on Sky sports
  • Come in Redhenry......... come in Redhenry............. Redhenry are you there ????????

    Technical Tip: If you had said " come in @Redhenry " then he would get a message and maybe provide a little more hope...

    Not sure if this has been posted but probably nothing to do with the TO ...

    Apparently a group of #Cafc fans have recently cost Roland tens of thousands of pounds to correct a problem? They have also landed him in very hot water! Nothing to do with us! Disgraceful if true! We wouldn’t condone anyone to cost such a great man his hard earnt cash! #proveit

    Do we know what they did?
    Odered -

    - 192 cabs to the dentist (wait and return)
    - 463 pizzas to be delivered (cash on delivery)
    - 66 Chinese to be delivered (cash on delivery)
    - 56 Curries to be delivered (cash on delivery)



    What no manure delivery?
    No funeral directors?
    No allegations of an affair with Stormy Daniels?
    I don't think anyone would believe she would, even for $130k

    Does anyone have any background on this? What is the problem that has had to be corrected?

    Bad timing for an announcement of that kind. We want unity through the club and a good atmosphere through both players and fans leading us onto Wembley.

    Wasn't an announcement so don't worry - no quotes from club or either consortium. All from "sky sources" - it's just sky stirring the pot a bit because they have a game to promote for Saturday, and then it also gives them a narrative to push for our televised play-off games as well.
    Can’t see too many people other than Addicks giving a toss to be honest.

    They've got to have something for the pundits to speculate about though haven't they - I doubt anyone other than Addicks give a toss about the story they put out today as well but that hasn't stopped them publishing it has it?
    Not a bad shout , I’m fully expecting Karl robinson to be in the studio if/when charlton play off games are televised!
    Car-park correspondent more his style surely...

    I reckon it's something to do with his teeth, they would take a fair few bob to sort out and clean, possibly tens of thousands.
  • The people interested now are interested in buying a lge 1 club

    Go up and it will bring a different interest more people happy to risk one promotion to the promised land

    I think thats a given in that when they became interested there wasnt much likelihood of us being anything other than a L1 club.
    When did they become interested?

    One of these days u will realise if u had all listened to me from the off u would have saved yourselves a lot of unnecessary sweating and getting worked up about imminent takeover dates - once the division next season is known!!! - even sky have fallen into line with me now

    It's not all about you.
    Perhaps not, but he's had more accurate info than anyone else on the thread.

    You'd better check that with Henry.
  • Clicked on this thread with 123 unread posts and I can literally feel the brain cells vacating my head.

    So much bickering, and bullshit, and "my takeover dick is bigger than your takeover dick" and then the boycotting back-and-forth - ugh.

    But do please carry on, it's very amusing.

    Like what ? "I guarantee that he'll be gone next season" Well there's a 50/50 chance of that being correct but it hasn't happened yet & with the club website stating for the last few months that the club is for sale it's hardly a sensational piece of info. Apart from that gem what accurate info has he actually come up with ?
  • In no news story ever do they have an actual quote from anyone involved, its pure speculation and guesswork. Takeover could be done tomorrow or in a year and they wouldn't know until its announced by the club/new owners.
