Fans Forum - an inclusive meeting hosted by the club at which agents of Roland Duchatelet obfuscate and lie about, well, pretty much everything. Oh and blame people, lots of blaming.
Fish puns: a holding sequence of a series of bad fish puns by different (but usually the same) posters when there is little to report/discuss on a thread.
The next two weeks could be crucial = I haven't a feckin clue whats going on but I just want to contribute something
True with its origins relating to an overly optimistic prediction regarding the sale of the club by Roland Duchatelet ( also see ‘imminent’ and ‘done deal’)

At least it was the potential buyers’ (deeply flawed) prediction :-)
Charlton height test - an undefined minimum height for transfer targets (esp. defenders) regardless of skill or even heading ability on the assumption that route 1 is still the standard tactical approach to football.
The next two weeks could be crucial = I haven't a feckin clue whats going on but my life is so empty I am desperately seeking some, any, crumbs of validation and believe that relentless posting on this tiny forum impresses many people I have never met nor will likely ever meet.

ITK - In The Know - a coveted (sometimes self-anointed) descriptor for someone with inside knowledge. However accepted to be an ephemeral or even illusionary state due to actual events rapidly contradicting supposed knowledge.
"Doing a golfie" - coming back to win after conceding the 1st goal. Named after @golfaddick's obsession with our failure to manage this since the play-off final up to the Bristol Rovers game.
Trainspotters - a supposedly insulting nickname for supposedly boring and lifeless Charlton fans by fans of other clubs that obviously backfires on them. I Mean what sort of man (or women) can’t get aroused by the sight of a mid century diesel locomotive passing through Charlton station?!
