Thanks Fanny. I trust what you say over many other posters on here (excepting Airman Brown & RedHenry). Anyone can come on here and say "I've been told its next week" or "my friend's uncle works with someone who lives in Floyd rd....."Fanny Fanackapan said:At the risk of being shouted down with cries of "source !" I just want to add that in the last 3 days I've been told that "it" will happen in between 2 & 4 weeks time.
All from different people too.
Their cat told me that we're going to be sold before the transfer window shuts... But the feckers never been purrrrrrfect on stuff to do with Charlton, he pays more attention to the Owls than Charlton.2 -

She's off the Abu Dhabi on Thursday so I asked her to sell them the idea of investing in us instead. Imagine if that happened. I'd be a hero!4 -
OK it's dark, cold, raining and January and my mind may be in that sort of mood BUT

I think I understand! So it's for a quality message that opens a thread? What happens if your thread/message gets promoted? It gets shunted up to the top of page 1?RedChaser said:

Sorry, what is the "Promote" thingy on my Home page ?
Moderators have the ability to promote 'quality content'. This will then be featured on the Best Of, and the user gets awarded additional points. We'll probably use it sparingly at first to see how it goes.
This is an open forum and its everyone's perogative to use it how they see fit. We as moderators though want to try and achieve two things; 1. promoting quality content, whether in subject and in humour, and providing some recognition to those are providing it, and 2. to reduce bad behaviour etc and try and maintain a polite and well moderated forum.
Hopefully some of these things like the Reactions, will help us achieve that. lets see how it goes. Give it a chance for a few weeks and see how you get on. You don't have to do anything at all, but if you see a post that you resonate with, or you think has been set out well, give it a Like, if you made you laugh, give it a LOL. only takes a second.
Apologies to those only interested in news on sale of the club but felt the image of the much maligned 'promote' needed protecting2 -
I think that should be formatted to look a bit tidier than the rubbish @Redchaser just phlegmed onto the screenAFKABartram said:

Just been on the phone to RD - told me he would have sold ages ago if fans hadn't boycotted. He's decided to stick around until our support recovers as he's worried about our future....7
