    There today for biggest crowd of season :-(

    Most guys who are on the payroll said 8/9 June for announcement as Muir returns from Oz.

    All said that's what we have been told but...."who knows though"!

    Never ending saga....

    I thought he was going home for two weeks. He might be flying back on 9th or 10th, so think 12th or 13th more likely?

    If this doesn’t happen I’m dead meat aren’t I.
    North lower seats looked like they had been renewed. Odd?
    Green or gold?
  • I am away working in Las Vegas at the moment and my American colleagues have noted that I am not functioning as they would usually expect, and it’s all because I’m looking at this blooming thread morning, noon and night.
    The diet of BudLite, pizza and pot noodle is not helping either.

    You should switch to fish fingers.
    Are you trying to batter me up?

    Still mostly red but with a large blue bull picked out chair by chair. It’s facing the West Stand if you’re interested...
  • If it’s widely known amongst the employees that a date has been set for the takeover to be announced then it’s obviously regarded by both seller and buyer that secrecy is no longer an issue. On that basis where are our Charlton focussed journalists ? Wouldn’t you think that they might have the date too ? Find it hard to believe that our very own Airman Brown wouldn’t also be well informed.

  • Bartrams sign was being replaced with Walkabouts.

  • All four sides of the ground are being cleaned up and refurbished. The East Stand, Jimmy Seed Stand, the West Stand and Bay 13.
  • So do we know if the electric hoardings are here to stay ??

    The staff were all told a takeover was happening in February, so i won't be holding my breath waiting

    I was told not, just for the youtubers game.
  • I’m hoping that as Andrew Muir is flying back some time on the weekend of 9th June there should be a press conference perhaps on the 12th or 13th? That’s just a guess, and would depend on the sale being concluded by then I suppose.

    Feck this thread. I'm enjoying some fishing.

    Never knew you were a Carp man Dazz, where is the venue?
    It's a place called five oaks fishery outside Horsham.

    It's average for fishing, loads of little fish no medium really and a few big.

    Good for beers and livens up at night a bit. Finished with a few 5lbish carp and a couple of Rudd.

    Do you have a source, or is it just something you've 'worked out', as a matter of interest?

    From OS statement regarding Bowyer:

    “The takeover hasn’t moved as quickly as we had envisaged and it was important for those players and fans to know that whatever happens there will be stability.

    “At this stage, there are still two parties looking to purchase the club and everything is close but a date for a takeover is not something I am able to put a timeline on because, as we have seen, these things can take longer than expected.”


    The 2 parties being the Aussie's and Red Henry's lot I presume.

    from what I can make out red herring is making it up as he goes along - aussies and brits are the 2 parties and the henrys Arabic panther is acting as some kind of decoy in the long grass - possibly with a mask on
    What you get up to in the evenings is your own business mate.

    They were but it would seem that the club employees have been told when it’s going to be announced which is different to hoping for the next few weeks. My point is that if employees know then so should the press.

    I’m guessing they don’t actually know and just like ‘outside’ the club, that’s the current rumour doing the rounds.

    They were also saying it was a done deal a week ago at one point.

    Which could well be true.

    NO.......NOT.................BAY13....AAARRRGGGHHHHHHHH!
  • One thing I know is I know one person at the club who knows a lot and if anybody is in the know it's him but he knows nothing as far as I know.

    Matches up with things I’ve heard. Got told an announcement to be made before the World Cup starts. Hence my post previously saying Thursday 14th June.
    Not quite, it’s 15 June
