Quick thread of people named Elliott/Eliot who care more about Charlton and/or would be more use to #cafc than the club's current sham 'owner' Paul... https://twitter.com/airmanbrown/status/1286765198255292419
Let's start with the big man! Former keeper Rob.

Long-time #cafc fan who, as a youth player, used to meet family/friends at the Bugle before home first-team games, and fulfilled his dream of playing for the club.

Love ya @the_dilsh!
Probably not that well known at The Valley, but Ralph Nelson Elliott (1871-1948) was an American accountant whiz who devised the Wave Principle after identifying trends in financial markets.

He wouldn't need to be told that that ESI don't have a pot to piss in. #cafc
Few people know that Missy Elliott is a Charlton fan. Her 2003 hit Pass That Dutch was written as a warning to the #cafc board not to consider signing an overweight Jimmy-Floyd Hasselbaink in the future.

Iain Dowie thought "I'm better"...
Oscar nominee & BAFTA winning actor Denholm Elliott was perhaps best known as Dr Marcus Brody in the Indiana Jones films, and also appeared in Trading Places.

Here's his reaction to the suggestion Paul Elliott might be a better #cafc owner than @andrewdbarclay and @_PeterVarney
Robert Elliott trained as an electrician & became New York State executioner. He published a book about his life called 'Agent of Death'.

Coincidentally, that's also how #cafc lawyer @Chris_Farnell (mate of fake owner Paul Elliott) is referred to by every club he's worked with
TS Eliot was an American-British poet. His renowned 1925 poem 'The Hollow Men' was described by one critic as the "nadir... of despair and desolation" - and it was widely believed to refer to #cafc's failure to gain promotion from the Third Division (South) under Walter Rayner
Charles Eliot was a British diplomat (ambassador to Japan from 1919-25) and a marine biologist who once named a species of sea slug.

He would have known what to call all the recent owners at The Valley then... #cafc
Barry Elliott and Paul Elliott are better known as children's comedy legends The Chuckle Brothers.

Although Rotherham fans, one of their catchphrases - "Oh dear, oh dear" - better fits the reaction of #cafc fans as ever worse news seeps out of The Valley on a daily basis
Novelist/poet Mary Ann Evans was better known as George Eliot & such deception would fit right in in SE7. At least she had a good reason for it.

Her comic realism masterpiece Middlemarch charted all the times Curbishley's #cafc sides gave up once reaching 40pts in the Prem
Singer and actor Cass Elliot was a member of the Mamas and the Papas.

One of her solo shows was described by critics as "a disaster" that was "heroic in proportion, epic in scope", and an "embarrassing drag". Still better than what's happening with #cafc though
We've even got a namesake better qualified than Charlton's fake owner.

Ex- #cafc player Paul Elliott was young player of the year in 1981 & has since been awarded the MBE & CBE for services to diversity in football. He's been linked to consortiums planning takeovers in the past
Another Charles Elliot was an American academic and president of Harvard - he hated football and tried to have it abolished.

So, similar to the effect the actions of Paul Elliott and his mates look like having for #cafc fans....
