    Someone needs to download a copy of this whole messy thread, put it together in a binder and give it to the museum. This thread will be CL folklore.

    Goodbye thread. You were mainly stupid and annoying, but I suppose I loved you.

    Forgot about the United Nations of suitors and the false dawns they created.  Truly an epic thread!

    A fantastic thread. The appearance of the Takeover-O-Meter was excellent, as were the splendid GIFs including the Roland/Sue Perks "It's Happening" ones; every pisstake out of Jim White; HappyValley (of course, though I'm sad he's not predicted the future); the moment where I looked like a complete twat after "analysing" the picture of Roland to verify he was at London Bridge when it was in fact an old photo from Belgium...

    All sorts. Cheers. It's been one hell of a ride.

    A seat for every post, we made enough posts to fill The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (62,303) but with us needing to reach page 2,500 to fill Old Trafford (74,994) we won't make that. Great effort though when the original intention was to see how much of The Valley would be filled.

  • It gave hope when there was non. 
    It made me laugh with the puns.
    Fare thee well old friend.

    Reckon AFKA has just found out we aren’t signing anyone and Nimer is just Roland in a fake sheik costume and make up. To prevent a full Charlton Life sever meltdown to rival Chernobyl, he’s preemptively closing this thread so the mods can focus all their efforts on cooling the reactor over on the “ESI: Thoughts So Far?” thread.

    Great thread, got put on performance plan at work beacause of this thread but I wouldn't have changed it for the world. 
  • I wondered if there should be some kind of ceremony, you know, a closing speech by Henry followed by a Royal Marine bugler playing the last post. 

    Then I saw this on Youtube and thought it would be more relevant.
