New owners

[lardiman]

So we have NEW OWNERS at last! when do we get a NetFlix mini-series?

Is Thomas Sandgaard 100% gone? Or is he still connected to the Club in some tenuous but annoying way?

Thomas is gone, but luckily for Charlton fans, the assets remain in Roland's safe hands

You need to post on here more often, you know more than us
Next time you are in Brazil I'll get the beers in

Ivor's mate made all the right noises on the radio interview, nothing new there then.
Let us see the player recruitment, that is the key.

Tayo Edun’s a good start

The player or me ? We’re having a better window than normal but I’m not getting carried away yet

 

[lardiman]

I agree we're having a better window than expected, though expectations were very low after recent seasons.

Seemingly it all began optimistically at Sunderland as well.
So we may have to wait until around the end of the year before knowing whether we're being fooled again...

If CAFC can
A) Still be in the mix for a top 6 place come April next year
B) Keep the same manager for a whole season
things will be looking up

Listen to @lardiman, our leader, he knows his football.

In truth I don't know nearly as much as many fans here and on other forums (my tactical savvy for instance is woeful. I'd never make it as a manager).
But like all of us, I know what I like

I’m am neither a sheep or a sheep shagger - I have my own mind (just!) I think you’re getting influenced by your old chum Royston over on Dickies forum

It's always better to wait and see. Remember the celebrations, especially in CL, when we signed Charlie Kirk?

Apparently Kirky played well last night - maybe Holden is the real deal ?

Indeed. If the new owners just let him get on with the job he'll do well. I'm particularly impressed with his willingness to learn.

Whilst last nights result looks good on paper, I just don’t think pre-season friendlies are any guide to how the real season will go. Even against a rival like Millwall.

We are still well short of being a top two team but we do look stronger than last season, so might have a chance to scrape into the playoffs.

With multiple multi-billionaire owners you’d think we should be able to push for top two. It’s supposedly what they and we all want, so time to splash some cash in these next 5 weeks.

Aren't there FFP rules to comply with though?
Especially with the Valley still at least half empty.
I don't know much about this stuff though. Gives me a headache just thinking about it.

Ipswich didn’t seem to have a problem with it last season, nor Derby this.

Hopefully Charlie can start to earn his crust and increase our revenues from sources other than just season ticket/ticket sales.

It’s what he says he’s good at and I have no reason to think otherwise.
