I thought Methven was a Sunderland fan?

I thought Methven was a Sunderland fan?

And an Oxford fan apparently?

 

[Village-Yellow]

And an Oxford fan apparently?

It’s just a job.

Likewise, our new owners have hardly been life long Oxford fans, but they see the potential to develop us as a club and make some money for themselves in the process .

That’s Micky Adams sat by the phone waiting for a call (really wish someone would tell him about mobiles).

It’s a tongue in cheek comment

As long as he never returns to OUFC (and I don't think that is likely at all) he can take CAFC to the 10th tier in English Football for all I care.

Well if washes his chinos with a slightly redder hue of sock, he won’t even need to change his wardrobe, wot wot.

It appears that the Lenagan family are also involved.

I thought they didn't even have enough money to keep us going?

 

[Paul Cannell]

Might be the Monegasque Uruguayans again.

 

[oufc1991]

Charlton are fucked if the lanagan family are involved they couldn't afford to keep us running is league two

 

[Paul Cannell]

They've been playing the lottery.

 

[oufc1991]

They've been playing the lottery.

Won the lottery they'd have to win the Euro millions to have any chance at making Charlton successful

 

[Paul Cannell]

Fair enough. You're on your own from now on.

Hope he fails and the Addicks give him s**t

I'm sure Charlton fans will be queuing up to welcome a major Tory donor, tax evader and a man still seemingly trading in Russia. Absolutely nothing can go wrong here!

Private Eye | Tory treasurer: Russian around

NEW Conservative party treasurer and £500,000 donor Mohamed Mansour, one-time minister in the autocratic Egyptian government of Hosni Mubarak (see last Eye), looks an even odder choice when his business interests are examined more closely.

Price of Football mention Charlie in their latest episode which dropped yesterday. They are not fans!

£8.5m seems like a steal for a south London club with recent Premier League history and Championship potential.

 

[Steve Gilbert]

Is Charlie trying to spend other people’s money again?
Fair play, he can talk like he knows what he is on about but when it comes to stumping up the money and actually doing what is needed he seems to struggle.

That doesn't include the ground or training ground iirc.

Good luck to him as an Oxford fan, except for when they play us.
