i have a feeling he'll do what he did with standard. he'll "sell" to a mate who'll do what he says. owner by proxy... i hope to god he doesnt think we're that stupid because if he did that, he wouldnt be safe in charlton anymore.
He's totally safe in Charlton because other than the visits which were for the purpose of defending lapdog Miere , he hasn't been anywhere near the place.
The Douch has tarnished the brand so much that the Club will probably be difficult to sell.... we are probably up there with United Airlines at present on PR competence
If the set-up is still the same, with Gobbo, Roland et al, I will try to wean myself off Charlton next season. Not saying I'll succeed.
It's all this anticipation of a take-over...or to be more precise, the anticipation of Duchatelet being gone. Many of us are wishing for it so much we've picked up the psychological equivalent of a pulled hamstring. Rather than walking wounded many of us are 'thinking' wounded - off balance and unable to get things in perspective after three years of putting up with the infuriating nature of our current owner and his inept, mocking sidekick. Without actually being evil or obviously villainous in a Dick Dastardly kind of way, Roland Duchatelet is nevertheless by his policies and his behaviour, surely the most monumentally irritating personality in the entire history of Charlton Athletic. On the day he is finally gone, and the prospect of his people and his philosophy and his infrastructure being swept away becomes reality, I firmly believe there will be such an outpouring of relief and joy from thousands upon thousands of Charlton fans like we've never seen before. Never mind who the new owners are. Whatever adventures or horrors they may have in store for us will wait for a day or two at least. There will simply be a huge tidal wave of happiness that his ambitionless, joyless, soul eroding tenure is over, and we will never have to think about him ever again.
Ponders says otherwise. I had a couple of extra beers last night on the strength of Ponders' predictions.
Yep. I started early too. Why limit a really good celebration by waiting for confirmation? Party all night dude!
Now look you kids... how often has your mother and me told you..... you can open one present on Christmas Eve and no more!
Yeah yeah yeah. The rubbish one with the jumper aunty Katrien knitted with a picure of a cow. I want the nintendo with the real life football game where Roland sells the club.
Rumour on CL. 'Rich tweeting news coming'. If true, I assume this is Cawley. Better than a photo of a kangaroo at least. C'mon Ponders. Cometh the hour....
'Rick' Everitt. Lot's of emotion but no news so far. Man he's gonna look daft if it's something silly.
