If you win the Euro Millions tonight

Modest £71million jackpot tonight.

I was daydreaming earlier that this could be a chance to get roland out for good, Would it be a chance to save Charlton? Perhaps buy the club off Roland and then immediately put it up for sale again and wait for a buyer with the right long term plan? Or would you just run the club yourself with the remaining money?

Or the more sensible option and not get involved with the club in a million years and enjoy the winnings :-)

    The second option is the sensible one, but the first is best!

    Buy the club and give a % to the trust so that the fans always own a part of the club and Peg Peter Varney to come back and run the show.

    Would take great pleasure in giving KM her P45 while telling her that I don't care about her history.

    Bollox to getting involved in a football club.

    I'd buy the club and run it myself to begin with, but working towards a long term plan to transfer it into permanent supporter ownership.

    On day one, I would reappoint Chris Powell (and whatever coaching staff he wanted to bring in) on a 40 year contract. Katrien would be kept on, but would vacate her position as CEO and take on a new role as Chris Powell's Chief Footwear Cleaner. She would still have her own office, although she might have to wait a couple of days for the cleaners to shift their brooms, floor mops etc before she could get settled in. Karel Fraeye would be in charge of polishing the under 11's boots. He wouldn't get his own office.

    Whilst Roland was not a popular figure with supporters, I think it would be churlish not to erect some form of permanent monument to remember his time in charge, and I therefore look forward to unveiling the Roland Duchatelet Speed Bump at the entrance to the Karel Fraeye Car Park.

    Toilets would be renamed in recognition of some of Roland's best signings, with the Anil Koc Shitter situated behind the Directors' Box in the West Stand.

    The recently re-introduced Family Fun Days would continue, but with a couple of exciting additions:

    - The Musical Managerial Merry-Go-Round giving young supporters the opportunity to ride on the back of one of Roland's many former head coaches whilst the jolly theme tune from The Exorcist plays in the background.
    - The Stocks - bring your son or daughter along every home match Saturday for the chance to dress up as a Royal Mail Postman and hurl rotten vegetables at the former Chief Executive.
    - Jackanory - it's Katrien again! Come on kids, gather round and listen to her wonderful fairytales about recruiting new head coaches, Charlton supporters being stupid and nothing ever being her fault.

    etc, etc, etc. Never even won a tenner so not getting my hopes up.

    £80 million rollover jackpot next Tuesday. That should be enough for all the usual boys toys, fancy holidays, new house(s) and a small cheque to buy out Blofeld. (Ernst that is, not Henry Blofeld).

    Oxymoron
  • Now we're talking ! - 80 million - i would certainly buy out Douchebag and give the club to the fans, get Curbs and PV to run it , maybe JJ as coach, with 10 mil to spend, get a stand named after me - and still have 50 mil spare - gotta be worth it..surely.

    Yep, I managed a £6.60 win as well, as long as we can work together on this the take-over is in the bag.

    2 lines, 14 number. Somehow managed to evade every single number.

    I'm not sure that investing in Charlton would be top of my list.

    At least you've had a couple of lines to cheer yourself up.
