Can we print every page of the takeover thread and turn it into a book? "14 Chips: The Charlton Takeover Saga"6

I think we will see how ambitious the new owner is within the next few weeks, but let's all enjoy a fresh start.
I'm not expecting it, but I want it.9 -

Shouldn't we have a countdown to ending this takeover thread. Maybe announce a deadline for posts to this thread. I'd love it to be given the funeral it deserves, so that well wishers can have the opportunity to say their final goodbyes, then bury it.1 -
First post on this thread.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
We won (in the end)

I like to think that the first thing Bowyer will do upon hearing the takeover news is march straight up to Driesen and give him the world’s most colossal dick punch16

Hoping it's a crock of gold not of shite at the end of ESI's rainbow.
At least we got plenty of crocks....

Just give us side where the name on our kids shirt last year is still playing next season, and the side is improved incrementally.cafcfan1990 said:Fantastic way to start the year.

Having said that, many with June 2020 contracts are not up to it, and I expect them to be replaced.
But no I am not talking about 8mil+ players coming in all of a sudden. A realistic budget and someone with a plan will do me, anything on top of that is a bonus.

This record breaking thread was Henry's baby and this child has had a dodgy time with it being taken fishing and forced to watch homes under the hammer.The Prince-e-Paul said:Moderators

To pay homage to the "Sale of Charlton" thread we should carry on for "the next two weeks are critical" and allow a 14 day summing up of the trial and tribulation of this baby thread that became a giant of a man thread before allowing the daddy of this thread to have the final words before leaving CL and moving on to his rightful place in the Museum with his family. @Henry Irving must be given the final word for the sake of Symmetry.7 -

I didn't realise, when I posted this, that it would take more than two more years. And that, in fact, I posted it much, much closer to the beginning of the thread than the end. It was, however, worth the wait. The long, long, long wait.Chizz said:He's selling. If nothing else comes from this thread of almost 150 pages, at least we can take away this one fact: he's selling. He may not be selling today, or this week, or this month. But, he's selling. We all want to know who the new owners are, what the price will be, how much money they've got, what their plans are, who we might sign and what is going to happen to The Valley. All of these remain firmly up in the air. But there's one, cast-iron fact we know: he's selling. He won't want to lose more money. Despite how some people present the opportunities to offset losses against tax, he doesn't want to lose more money. No-one does. It's a stain on his business record, it's a loss to his prestige, it's a drag on his resources and it's a diminution of his - and his family's - wealth. So, either sooner or later, there is no doubt, whatsoever: he's selling. I want to know when and I want to know what's next. But, I can wait. And, if he's reading this, I have one message for him - I can wait longer than you, Roland. Not least because, unlike you, Roland, I have nothing to lose. And that's why this thread - despite being inconclusive on a number of issues so far - is so heartening, uplifting and positive. Because, sooner or later, there's no doubt about it now: he's selling.
