    The Liar banner should be preserved and kept on display for ever.
    Just to remind future generations of supporters what we had to endure.

    I don't know about anybody else, but I'm going to miss the dancing.

    Tahnoon Nimer's red and white army, or if you prefer being a syllable short dazzler you could also have "tahnoon nimer's red army".

    I’ve just been enjoying Roland’s rambling nonsense on Sky, if you don’t mind.
    What did the silly old sod say?

    This might be a slightly unpopular comment but well done EFL for apparently taking the time to thoroughly investigate ESI prior to confirmation of the takeover.  As frustrating as it was we should all be grateful.
    spot on. hopefully it's a sign that they've learnt from their mistakes and will do these checks properly now

  • Just delighted that the deal is finally over the line. Sincere thanks to CARD and all those who tried to force the issue. What difference it made we’ll probably never know, but at least the fans can say they didn’t just sit on their backsides and let it happen. And the protests were always with dignity and often with good humour.

    Now I just need to wean myself off this thread.

    We wanted @Stig to do a Bayeaux tapestry version of this thread to adorn the walls of the museum but it would rival that line thing they used to do on the Magpie studio during appeals. 
    There’s how to lose 7/8ths of your reading audience in one word 😉

    It’s very important that people enjoy themselves at matches. I was hoping for mention of dancing.

    He did say “enjoy the moment”. 
  • A bit late now but was hoping to see a few 'its happening' gifs 😉

    Just bought my ticket for Sunday. Four long years of boycotting about to finally come to an end. I can't wait to finally be back in the covered end. We got our Charlton back!

    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. 
    Put a stake through its heart.

    I don’t think you can kill it, it will keep re-surfacing  ;)

    I know it's wrong but I think the thing I'm looking forward to most is the eventual insane rambling break up message Roland is going to post somewhere talking about how we're all insane racist psychopaths and we deserve the guillotine. For all they were bonkers, the bloke's statements never failed to make me laugh

    Same here. I couldn't get in to the NW as it's a sell-out, Managed to get into the West upper block B. Sadly the North Upper and the west all seemed to be closed (or are all sold out already). Maybe they might want to re-think that? Many, like me, will want to end their boycott.
