If he hasn’t left why are the club looking for a replacement.
Because its as good as done, but not signed.

Because any sensible owner would have groundwork already in place in the event.. He hasn't left but they might be aware that there is a chance he might be leaving

I was just about to post that I'm starting to think that his account has been hijacked by a troll

Not trolling. But you (collective you) can’t have it both ways. Either he’s gone and Charlton don’t want to announce it - I’d say bollocks to that if I was Clem.
Or he’s still under contract with STFC in which case nothing would prevent the club from saying so.
Why should we, the fans, be left surmising what’s going on.

Or its verbally a done deal but contracts aren't signed and therefore not official until their owner is back in the country and Garner is back off holiday. Which means the club can't say anything. Which is where the 'after jubilee weekend' thing comes from.

I think we all have a fair idea of what's going on. We just have to wait for it to play out. Jan Airplane Man (one of the Trust Board guys on here) set it out pretty clearly a few pages back.

I know I’m sounding argumentative, but that’s would be at Charlton’s behest. What I’m saying is why are we going along with it?

But that’s not the Trust’s job. It’s the club’s job.

If things aren't signed, they aren't done and so can't be formally announced. I'm sure it'll happen. I'm sure we'll appoint someone very soon after. The DoF role I suppose could be filled ASAP - but that assumes we are keeping the model (as expected)

So based on the facts, today, the only thing that the club could say is that Ben Garner is contracted to STFC. Then next week would announce that he has signed a contract with Charlton and has left the club. If that did happen, how would that help us? Would you complain that they put out a statement last week and now they have contradicted that statement with the latest statement? Nothing factual they can say with the current situation is going to help us with our craving for information, it really is as simple as that.

Perhaps it's simply how Clem and the Charlton board have agreed to go about the business. In reality there is no reason I can think of why we couldn't make a statement to say 'Swindon Town have accepted an approach from Charlton to speak to Ben Garner, we are in discussions around Compensation blah blah' For me, it does seem slightly strange that that hasn't happened in this manner, but maybe the 2 clubs agreed to keep schtum until the deal has been done. If there was no truth in Garner to Charlton then I expect it would have been stated by Clem already.
