http://www.cafc.co.uk/news/article/2016-17/charlton-statement-3243379.aspxI don't suppose this will get the same level of social media coverage but at least they have responded swiftly to something. In truth it shouldn't have ever got into the public eye since it was a matter between an individual and the club and was, it sees, resolved.
I think this is hugely damaging for the club and, again, has got blown way out of proportion - the truth is much less glamourous than the letter would have people believe.
I hope the person who got the letter is proud of themself though - they come out of it looking like a wonderful person....

And I hope it is hugely damaging. BLOODY GOOD JOB... well done Quentin.
@boggzy for invading the pitch.
The Belgian lot for there antics.
@Airman Brown has been confronted by Katrien if i remember correctly.
@LouisMend confronted for being negative by Slade.
@The_President for visiting Katrins family's house.
I know i have had several calls with the club about last seasons antics. and i believe if we all renewed this season they would have done the same to us.
There is definitely an agenda of intimidating the ring leaders of the protests. and trying to silence us. to a certain extent it is working because many dont want to go back to Belgium and most people haven't renewed so wont be in the stadium this season to protest.
I just don't think that your argument holds up.
And let's not forget, all he has actually done is release the club's own words, were they actually reasonable then there would have been no story in it. Unfortunately for the club, the general perception is that the club are trying to control things over which they should have no say.
The bullying attitude of the Club towards a fan expressing his views in a free country has changed all that.
Members of my family did not die in two World Wars so a jumped up Belgian Schoolgirl and her henchmen could go around bullying people and curtailing legitimate free speech.
I will be donating once more to the Protest fund when I can.
Have you seen the tweets in question? They may not make him look wonderful, but it makes the club look like the bullying fuckwits they are. Your post just makes you look a bit of a bellend.
The person in question obviously had to answer for their behaviour, did so, apologised and it all ended amicably. That should have been the end of it.
When you see Tony cahone get him to pm me Swisdom
I can't seem to get him to answer my calls
I'll tell you what, the club would have removed a human right from one of their customers. They attempted to gag a fan, do you really think that is something they should be able to do?
The club's statement does not relate to the words in the letter sent.
Ever heard of emotions? Defend your club ffs. The club you love, and will want your children to love may be no longer if this carries on.
However, the fact that they can waste their time calling in an abusive fan for a meeting but not an abusive player (Roger Johnson) is ridiculous. So fuck RJ and fuck the club.
Have you even read the letter?
You really need to have a little independent thought, don't just believe what the club say, they have a history for this sort of thing.
They have dragged this club to a totally different level of ridicule
They also spelt behavioural wrong.
String 'em up.
The club didn't write a very good letter then did they?
The club also discussed the video footage, after which the individual apologised on several occasions for his behaviour and assured the club that he would not continue to engage in an abusive manner.
He was accompanied by the Chairman of the Charlton Athletic Supporters’ Trust who witnessed the individual’s apology.
The meeting ended amicably and, as he appeared sincere in his apology, the club handed the individual his 2016/17 season ticket and he was not asked to sign an Agreed Behavioural Contract.
