picking up on len's comment regarding the non lifers he knows not renewing and the majority on here renewing.
how much do we as a forum represent the whole charlton support?
i think we are pretty close when it comes to opinions on players, perhaps comparing the poty vote on here and at the ground will prove or dismiss this. with our poll attracting 104 votes in 5 days, do us regular 100 or so posters represent in other areas?
i think on here we have knowledgable posters that have seen the good, bad and indifferent times at charlton. we also have people that work for or have connections to people that work for the club so that also gives a further insight on how things are run.
i think most of us have a tolerence/acceptance/patience of whats happening to charlton at the moment, something perhaps the rest of the support don't.

To be honest I am not sure we are that true a reflection. As pretty much everyone I have met from here is clearly Charlton through & through, same cannot be said of a lot of the people at the ground today who have no real affinity for the team & have no idea of what the word 'Support means' .0

I dont think personally its that representative. There are a broad range of views but from within a bunch of devoted addicks.
On Saturday there were probably 2500 to 5000 booers out of a 20000 ish home crowd. So roughly between 12.5% to 25% of the crowd.
With one or two exceptions most on here were not in that category so say 1% of lifers boo.
I also think the Forum seems to work quite well for those far away from South East London either in the UK or Worldwide. And these are often excellent posts but differ from the local fan. Thats not a dig its meant as a compliment.
I also get the impression that a 'Lifer' is generally better informed and interested in whats going on close to the Club.0 -
I'd agree with that imptm
Also, would have to look at the percentage of those who attend The Valley that are regular computer users.0
