The Takeover Thread - Duchatelet Finally Sells (Jan 2020)
Comments

This thread had what all great stories have.
It had an inciting incident...
A nasty enemy...
Heroes and 'interesting' characters...
Battles...
Obstacles to overcome...
Surprises and disappointments...
And at one point a total loss of hope.
But here we are with a happy ending!

Thank god it’s over1

I think this whole thread should be made into book form, to be read for years to come. It can’t be allowed to fade into folklore.1

We all love a "happy ending"

"Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duty, and so bear ourselves, that if Charlton Life lasts a thousand years, people will still say that this 'was their finest thread' ".
KBO everyone - 'Keep buggering on'.1 -

Many hours have I wasted,
Many puns have I seen,
Following "Sale-of-Charlton",
My favourite theme,
Wearing my top
From the "Covered End Choir",
Singing Valley Floyd Road,
My only desire.
Goodbye old friend!11 -
Can someone please tell Andrew Muir, he’s still at Charlton train station trying to flog the scarves he got from the club shop in order to raise funds to complete the takeover.4

Genius, but the work of someone with too much time on their hands.soapboxsam said:"Mum are we there yet ?"
"Yes we are dear"
"Why did it take 31 months to get here mum ?"
"Because as the daddy of this thread said,
We are in for a bumpy ride"
" So has the strange man who was like the Invisible man and never came to the Valley gone mum?"
"No, he is still the landlord for a few months longer, as ESI wanted to be in charge for the start of this window"
" Is it like when Dad has finished in the Loo and we have to give it 10 minutes before we can go in mum?"
" Yes Dear, the crap has gone but the smell lingers on"
"If ESI have been in charge 27 days and the window is open why haven't we bought any players other than Andre Green on day one on loan?"
" Wait to February 1st and it will all become clear"
" Why was a House analogy used as an example mum ?"
" Because most of CL members have learning problems because they were always playing truant and don't understand big business"
" Are our new owners from the UAE loaded with money mum?"
"Yes and No, they will pay about 55 million when all the T's are crossed and the i are dotted but they won't spend like Man city despite going to the same family weddings"
" How are we going to be in the Premier in Five years if we can't get League 1 players to sign?"
" It's like quantum mechanics, you can't see wave-particle duality taking place, but Steve Gallen will magic up some players"
"But, Dad said you can't polish a turd?"
" Wait until February1st to evaluate whether we had a good window "
"I'm having a look around and this new era of CAFC looks the same as before mum"
"At the Barnsley game, you will feel the atmosphere and know things are better, and we have taken our first small step"
"Can i say goodbye to the Sale of Charlton thread now mum?"
"Yes, you just did"0 -

It was originally a comment on the war-time diet but they thought the new words would work better commercially. The working title was Whale Meat Again.PopIcon said:0 -

Thanks AA, but as you can see I posted that at 5.51 AM after starting at 5.20am with a blank canvas other than mum and son paying their third visit to the SOC thread so the characters speak for themselves.AddicksAddict said:

Having more time now was because I used to have no time with working long hours, so CL is enjoyable most of the time with the eclectic mix of real and pretend Persona's on this site.
