  • Who fancies a bet with me Bowyer will sign a 2 year deal before the end of the season?

    I'll be happy to chip in with a few predictions
  • 2019, BFG, 93m 54s. That's all folks I don't do predictions, unless you count comfortable 4-0 wins.
    Euro 2020 | Tokyo Olympics...?

    Bah!!... This thread just provides disappointment after disappointment

    Don't need predictions.

    For example 2020 will be an Olympic year,  2021 will be the centenary of Charlton joining the football league, 2022 a world cup year and on and on.

    @Uboat and others grasped this a long time ago

    Its been a couple of days since we were told the Aussies out.  We must be due a new rumour that they are back in?
    Think the EFL are still waiting for them to submit that paperwork.
    This could of happened of course...

    Pile of shite.

    Drain on our servers, the productivity of our users and society in general. You should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself.

    December 2019, after years of uncertainty a December General election leads to a surprise landslide victory for The Jedi Party who vow to not repeat the mistakes of long long ago. 

    Too hopeful?

    I’m still expecting a takeover announcement on the OS before page 2020.

    I reckon joint Aussie/Yank bid was their final attempt to get any movement out of him - they probably weren't serious just the last straw.
  • Thanks happyvalley for making this thread, the thread it is today

    Will the Aussies be dragging Roly through the courts?
    JS used to bang on about how much they had spent money and time wise in the pursuit and citing that as the reason for them not walking.

    Take him to court because his price was too high? Yeah that will recoup their losses. 

    I think ultimately on the pitch success has cost us the takeover, you have to laugh.

    If a house sale falls through can you sue the owner for costs of surveys? I doubt it.

    Especially if you tried to pull an offer at the last moment and lowball the seller.

    Yeah. I get all that. Tongue was firmly in cheek.

    I personally think the whole Aussie thing was a load of bollocks. I heard their plans first hand and it was a lot of mush.

    See their website is still up so I'm guessing they are going to court some other poor 'down on its arse' club. After all they do appear to be a 'rent-a-consortium' that come to the aid of mad owners looking to generate some interest in their lead balloons.

    They'll be flying cars before this shower manage to get their hands on a British football club.
