If I wasn't so happy I'd be penning a cross email to someone.
BBC wankers reporting thus:East Street Investments has completed its takeover of Championship club Charlton Athletic, ending Roland Duchatelet's spell as owner.
Much of Duchatelet's tenure was dominated by friction between the Belgian and a section of supporters and he has been trying to sell the club since the end of 2017.
A deal with ESI was first announced at the end of November, subject to English Football League approval.

Even a cheer went up around the coach when the news was breaking.
And anyone who's ever travelled by coach will know collective cheers usually do not happen. Ever. 😁

Having a chairman who is a regular Twitter user may prove interesting in the coming years3

Thank god, what a bloody relief.Let’s hope ESI have plans that’ll allow for a gradual, sustainable improvement in the playing squad. That’s all we can ask for really.
Dry January may be put on hold tonight :-)4 -

Finally...
As others have said, that's Dry January straight out the window.5 -
RD completed the purchase on 3rd January 2014 - he was, no doubt, jumping up and down to get this completed because all the insurances were due for renewed tomorrow!
Time for us all to move forward and forget about him even if we can't and won't ever forgive.0 - Sponsored links:
