Coming home after a hard day at the office on Saturday watched FC Carl Zeiss Jena lose 2-0, Roland Duchâtelet was met with several voicemails from his CEO at Charlton Athletic.
ANOTHER DEFEAT! She blamed everyone and everything and complained that she couldn’t handle it anymore! He MUST come back to the Valley and get the peasants to listen to her and praise all her hard work!
He explained the agenda and told her to stay true to the plan, and reminded her that they were both far superior in both knowledge and foresight than anyone else in the football world and the stress and strain would pay off in the end!
After a quick shower he headed across the road to the Stadium, surely the mighty STVV would get a win today third time lucky and all that he thought! He arrived at the stadium to a lower than expected attendance, he took his seat in his Skybox for GOD’S view that it offers looking down on all the inferior beings below!
Two shots in the first 15 minutes they should have been 2-0 up but they weren’t! Then WHAT IS THIS??? 20 minutes into the game his eye was caught by the clear BLACK AND WHITE name! ROLAND!!!
Surely not the Sint-Truiden fans protesting ASWELL! Then the penny dropped! No it is WORSE! Those bloody Charlton fans are HERE at my HOME GROUND how DARE they!
Straight on the phone to his private security to mobilise the troops and within 5 minutes the banner was taken and they were escorted out! LOUD BOOOOS rang out from the home end!
AHHH that’s better normality restored – he sat back in his seat to relax with regular updates being handed to him, thoughts in his head started to formulate – shall I dip them in boiling hot Tar? Perhaps lock them in a meeting room with Karel Fraeye that will bore the shit out of them! Then Oh NO!!! 0-1 Sint-truiden were getting beat. 1-2 in the end!
Home he went in an even fouler mood to be met yet again with more voicemails from Katrien apologising that the protest was taken to Belgium, she promised that she would do everything in her power to stop the media attention. She reassured him that no one would hear about it!
Off to bed he went to count his euros! And dream of what club to buy next.
Bright and early he woke to the sound of the newspaper coming through his door! WHAT IS THIS! ALL over the News!
THE CHARLTON 20!!!!!
Back on the phone to Katrien, who explained the top people in the club were on the case and it was their fault that the SMALL story leaked to every country in Europe and all over the British media! There would be a FULL investigation boss!
Next another clatter at the door! What now he thought!
Met by one of the leaflets from the Charlton 20 he rushed out into the cold, not a soul to be seen – just the noise of hundreds of flyers fluttering on peoples windscreens and hanging out there letterboxes!
ALL HIS NEIGHBOUR’S KNEW that no one likes poor old roly poly the RAT!

This is just the start Mr Duchâtelet you underestimated the power of Charlton Athletic Fans and if 20 people can make your weekend so shit, think with the thousands will do to you!
ROLAND & KATRIEN TIME TO GO!
