    Blimey.. anyone would think I'd put a thread up calling for Nathan Jones to go. 

    Our season will not be decided based on a thread put on CL.

    Is there enough clear pushback on this thread to justify its deletion?

    If you think it should be deleted, may I ask why?

    Why does your comment need to be deleted...? - What did you originally write? 🤔

    Genuine question. Why? In case it doesn't happen? In that case maybe we shouldn't have a holiday thread,  in case someone gets ill and the holiday doesn't go ahead.

    I’d delete it, it’s tempting fate.

    But we're not fated to get promoted. I just think we will.  Numerically the odds on getting promoted are slim. This thread isn't based on fate. That would be impossible, as it doesn't exist. This thread is based on our start to the season, a good manager, good recruitment  and my personal opinion. 

    I think we'll get top two, probably win the league. 
  • What if by not having a countdown to promotion thread, tempts fate meaning we don't get promoted?

    Comes across as arrogant. We’ve played 3 games, we support Charlton. I needn’t say anymore

    Arrogant. Really!! As a Charlton fan I'm arrogant? That's hilarious. 

    Positive is the word you're looking for. 

    Some people on here get slagged off for being overly negative just for voicing their opinion. 

    Just dont open the thread mate.

    I think it's hilarious. I didn't tell the wife I was going to win the lottery. Didn't want to tempt fate.

    I still didn't win.

    Exactly.  Most people on here think we're in for a good season. 

    I'm looking forward to my promote in mid April.

    Where was the 'Countdown to mid table mediocraty'  thread over the last few seasons? Would have been a superb read...

    Tell you what @up_the_valley, I'll close the thread later on tonight, stick it in my bookmarks, and if we're still in the hunt for promotion on April 15th, you can DM me smugly and I'll re-open it and give you a promote. If not, we'll forget it ever happened. Deal?

    Thought about it,  but fate would've relegated us.

    Your actions could destroy our hopes of being in the Championship next season... DONT DO IT!!

    That was covered in the weekly Post-Match Threads

    That kinda defeats the reason it was started in the first place doesn't it. If you want to close the thread to appease a select few on here then that's fine. I'll happily take myself off the forum.

    I'm booking my holiday for next year and wondering when the bus parade to show off our silverware, will be.

    On present form I can see us winning the league against Birmingham, 15th February.

    On second thoughts our cup runs are likely to push that date back considerably.
