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

There were many people myself included that said this back in October when it was being touted as imminent
That was not based on inside info just common sense
Charlton in the championship would bring people to the table that may not be there right now
So it wasn’t about agreeing the deal with aussies or Saudi’s or Brits based based on a promotion raised sales price
As I have always said RD does not have to sell us he is rich enough ignorant enough and arrogant enough to risk people walking away
It was my biggest fear that RD won’t sell this season and will wait and see
I genuinely think if we go up he won’t sell at all and that he will invest in the playing staff and go for it , if it looks like it won’t work he will sell next December

We have been here before the most noise comes from the fans nothing coming from the club except false and fake news to make certain posters on here and other sites look stupid and damage their reputation just because they have pissed him off and others at the club
Focus on the football enjoy Saturday and let’s hope we get 3 more games and then go up as that is the aim of Charlton surely
If we don’t go up he will sell in the summer I don’t doubt that but for me it’s promotion as the priority then sell
I think a lot of people are getting really precious about this boycott lark - just bloody go for christs sake. If you dont, its only your (and the teams) loss.
Disagree entirely.
Dont know about everyone else, but i'm really bored with people coming on here and saying they are still boycotting - come on here and say you are breaking your boycott and supporting the team else dont come on here at all. Had enough of all the negative shit.
Why not let people make their own minds up instead of expecting them to fall in line with you.
I think Sky are a bit outdated with their information tbh. Rehashed article because we're on TV this week. Wouldn't surprise me if Roland is waiting on the TV money over the next few weeks but surely they can agree a price with add-ons if we were to get promoted.
Why does promotion matter, you set clauses into the deal that gives you X amount if we go up. If we go up, he’ll keep us he’s one step closer to the lottery win which is premier league money. He’s stumbled upon a winning formula in Bowyer, I have no doubt he’ll hang onto us for at least one season in champ.

Because, at this point in time, it doesnt benefit the team. Most fans dont give a toss if people are boycotting or not any more - they just want the team to win the next 4 games - we dont need any more negative shit on here, we dont need precious people coming on here saying they are still boycotting and almost glorifying it as 'wow, look how big i am, i'm still boycotting'- who gives a toss anymore? - go and do your shopping in Bluewater, go and see Buxton versus bleedin Biggleswade instead of going to The Valley- who gives a toss ? but dont come on here bigging it up as if you're doing us a favour - you're not and you're definitely not helping the team.

He is hoping he will get the money from Wembley as well
It’s not rocket science or based on inside info the longer that both parties took on getting formal offers in and accepted I was worried that RD won’t sell up this season
Still convinced Duchatelet will retain an interest in The Valley once the deal is completed.
You are not going to like the new owners either, you will be worried about their exit strategy, have they got enough money, who is really behind them, why do they really want a football team, have they a hidden agenda, will Bows and JJ be kept on, ......etc etc.
Exciting times! Go with the flow.
How do you come to these conclusions regards the opening paragraph?

No. I'm boycotting. The reason I'm boycotting is because I believe it is our best chance of success. There are people who have argued that they won't boycott because it wont be 100% whilst others have argued that Roland doesn't care. I've had enough of such negative shit. Am I telling people not to post it though? No, each to their own.
So for the record I'm boycotting. I'm boycotting because it is the most positive action I can take to help bring an end to this regime. I won't break my boycott because you or anyone else tells me to. Some things are more important than what happens on the pitch.

You're sounding like one of the anti-protest gang, which is odd considering your role in them.
If anyone is interested (or gives a shit Mr president ) , I'm still boycotting. I will continue to boycott and not put a bean into the club until Roland pisses off completely.
If Roland is getting info fed back to him about the upturn in fans flocking back due to recent results which I am sure he is I feel there is a very good chance he will hold onto us in the Championship.
Bigger crowds, the away end sold out most weeks, TV money, more sponsorship money due to TV coverage, more club shop sales.
Promotion to the Championship is a game changer and we are not dealing with an English, rational owner.
Although I want RD out as soon as possible, I could live with it being at the end of May. Much longer after that and it will adversely impact on next season.
But the real worry is that he might decide not to sell if we get promoted. It would be interesting to pose the question. Would Charlton fans prefer to stay in league one and Duchatelet sells, or get promoted and he stays? At one time I would have thought the vote would be very strongly for RD to go. Now, seeing the reaction to a few wins and play off chances under Bowyer, I’m not so sure.
For me, it’s easy. I want Duchatelet out no matter what.
The longer the sale takes, the less time the new owners and manager will get to get a squad sorted out, unless like RD, they will wait until the last minute of the transfer window and bring in a few free transfers

Not a fcuking prayer that I'll go before he does.
Go up and it will bring a different interest more people happy to risk one promotion to the promised land

If I was him I would not

Just wondering if someone's head might explode.
