The little scroat who had a row with Dowie, had a go, cause in his little Stone Island mind that Dowie is a wanker, cause he's ex Palace, and shall ever be regardless of managing this football club.
I did wonder if this some spotty oik celebrated Hermans penalty (ex Palace), sung Chris Powell name (ex palace), enjoyed a Paul Mortimer step over (ex Palace) or celebrated a David Whyte goal (ex Palace)
Oh and he thought he was a little hero as well, mug.

Some people........
In your case, you don't need the coat.....
;-)
Depends, if it was worn with a fake burberry baseball cap.....
I was sceptical about Dowie at first mainly because i knew what pressure he would be under if he buggered everything up (because of the Palace link) but his enthusiasm, commitment and desire to do well has really stood out for me.
All real football fans know that the situation at the start of the season was dire and most were man enough to admit that the players at the club may not have been "Top 8" players and were set it for a long season. This does not however dampen the spirits and support of most and i really think that has shone through this season.
We are now 5 games unbeaten and in the last 8 of a cup competition, yes we're bottom of the league but two wins (which is very achievable) will see us up in mid-table once again.
This "lemon" should just grow up and support the club, which Dowie is an integral part of.
we have some right divs who support our team. one goal down after a few minutes then its "dowie out" the anti palace brigade in front. hows that supposed to help the team. they wind me right up. had to move cos i felt like pushing a few of them over that bar, kicking them over the bar.
bunch of idiots. they're entitled to their opinon, but we'd just won, dowie had just thrown his coat out to the crowd, we were all singing his name, the team battled away and got a result, not in a particularly amazing way, but I really enjoyed it, and i think others did.
if we'd have lost, i'd not have moaned so much because its ok to be frustrated and have a little moan, its expected, but dowie after being on a high, must have walked away wondering why he bothered! it was embarrassing.
those dowie out scroats - god i'm not a violent person but they just wind me up. i reckon i could have taken em all on... - it was only cos i was held back :-)
Did everyone sing him a song first ..... was he absolutely clear the majority are behind him????
i'd say it was about maximum 10 people that were possibly having a dig, compared to the rest of us clapping him and the team. even those who don't think that much of him, must have appreciated the win for us, and therefore kept their mouths shut.
as he walked off there were people trying to sing iain dowies red and white army, but people were leaving by then, i think he got a round of applause from those in the seated area tho as he walked down towards the tunnel.
Complete idiots , some people are never happy .
i wish these nobs would just f off to the toolbox
What are your views on Dowie?
i was at both games, and near both groups in question, and i can say that some of those were definately the same people. not all, and not saying that all of them were calling for dowie or causing trouble or behaving like numpties, some were singing his name throughout but there were definately a few of them that were in both places in question
Who are they, young or old? Not the chavs that were down the front to the right of the goal?
I heard the Alan C's red and white army after about 10 mins. Very very sad.
when there was banter when chesterfield scored and they ran from their seats on the right to celebrate, a few of the charlton decided to run along the front and look hard and aggressive for some reason. not sure of the point. i know it was frustrating, but there was no need for it. banter going back and forth is fine, but half attempts to charge them are ridiculous.
they think they're so great for either getting arrested, wearing as much hooligan 'outfits' as possible and being as obstreperous as they can.
sad thing is, if they weren't there, we'd have about 20 less away fans at every game and definately a lot less noise.
Obviously I wasn't at the game but these kind of matches are never easy - on paper yes, but not in real life, if this fan thought we'd walk off with an easy win then he needs to understand how cup football works.
The mug needs to grow up, I expect those patting him on his back were his mates not independent fans.
Well done to the team for navigating a tough match.
No it wern't the ones at Fulham. It's a shame the media have latched on to the fact that a few people gave dowie stick. A couple of papers have mentoned it making out to people that it was all of us.
A few that were singing alanc's red and white army were some of the ones telling Curb's to go in the first place. No pleasing some people.
Dickheads though totally agree.
if you standout reason for not liking Dowie is because a bloke from luton who was working in oldham, took a progressive job at crystal palace, then you can't be the full ticket, in my book.
football people do not see rivalries between clubs, and have no loyalties in that regard. Football clubs are employers, and that is largely it.
Thought basically Dowie was given the job as there was no one else about. I am sceptical to say the least. I find it remarkable the amount of stick we gave him yet how quickly he has been accepted. Various chants on the last day of the season 05 such as "Iain Dowies illegitimate" etc.
My View - He was always going to have to do more than anyone else to win everyone over. So far he has spent a lot of money and not really got us much back. He has been unlucky, we should have got something from Chelsea away and Arsenal at home but so far I do not think he has done much to win people like myself over.
win people like myself overThat made me chuckle, what are you first:
A Charlton Fan or a Palace Hater?
I'm not trying to get into an argument here but i just think that most fans would agree that we would be in a similar position regardless of who was in charge. The squad was just not good enough the second half of last season onwards.
Yes, a lot of money has been spent but they now look like they are starting to gel. 5 games unbeaten.
I support Charlton. I absolutely hate Palace. However, Dowie is now the Charlton manager. Our best chance of success with Dowie as manager is by supporting him. Not by calling for his head when we concede our first goal for 4 games.
To change managers now would be suicide particularly as it is very clear that Dowie is very slowly starting to turn things around. This season there will clearly be some more lows (football is like that). If some are going to boo Dowie everytime we concede a goal then it will make for a very miserable atmosphere amongst the CAFC fans. Until last night, I have never had to move postion in the stand due to the behaviour of the CAFC following - last night was the first time in 30 years .
Football is a fickle business, people take abuse and move to clubs where they got it, such is life, Iain made the move, and that's to his credit.
Sadly, football is full of these idiots now :-(
