But be honest, what really cheesed you off was when you started your car after the game and the doors fell off, the bonnet flew up in the air and a bunch of flowers popped out of your exhaust pipe...

Don't sound like it does it? If you care to read other posts on here you'll see that there are far worse accounts of heavy-handed completely OTT stewarding which targeted the wrong people - and our own fans have sympathy with it all. If you were picked out on CCTV it's highly likely you deserved it you stripey tw*t. If you don't like it, stay at home and w*nk.
"I'm so annoyed after last night! My brothers and I got into the ground only for middle brother to be ejected as they said he was drunk because he wasn't lifting his arms properly for the initial search. The reason he couldnt lift his arm properly is beacuse he's disabled. They then proceeded to eject him by dragging him and using force on his paralysed left side. He tried to explain that he was disabled but they werent interested. My younger brother witnessed this and rightly or wrongly went mental and in the process got ejected. I witnessed this and asked the steward who was searching me whether I could go and see what was going on as my disabled brother had just been ejected. He walked me down to the gates on the proviso that I wouldnt cause any problems. He then explained to me that my brothers had been ejected, would not be allowed back and that I could stay with them or go in and watch the game.
I walked back up and spoke to two police officers as I wanted to complain about the heavy handed stewarding. One constable said I needed to write to the club and the other asked what had happened. When I explained he just shrugged his shoulders and was totally uninterested. I asked him for his name, number and station which he gave me and as I was typing the information in my phone I got as far as his number and part of station before I was picked up off the floor by 5 stewards shouting at me: "we told you, either in or out and as its obvious you dont want to go in, you obviously want to go out"!!!!
Absolutely disgraceful and then made to feel like a common criminal by the police who took my details and photo and said it would be used by the football intelligence department."
We've all experienced heay handed stewarding & policing, for me particularly in the Midlands area.
Firstly this isn't the forum to bring it up. Us as Charlton fans don't control the stewards. Certainly in my time watching in the South stand when we had 8,500 max attendance at the Valley, the stewards were incredibly leniant during potentially riotous occasions; ie Burnley always bloody Burnley.
If you're so eager to tell us the shortcomings of our stewarding policy then get onto the club about it. As for complaining about the police, how do we govern the Met's finest? We've all suffered from the Met's singular lack of brain cells, it's us the Charlton fans that moronically got shoved into Charlton station by fools on horses week after week until one of their brain cells thought to limit traffic.
Now if your stories are true I sympathise with you. But frankly this ain't the medium for me to understand or pursue any injustice. We as individual fans don't own the collective guilt of all that goes wrong at our club just as every Palace fan ain't as moronic as the fools on the trains last season.
I've heard yesterday that the Palace fans are planning 1 minutes silence in remembrance of CPFC1301's foot being stood on. However because of the gravity of this heinous crime theyve now extended this to 90 mins.
Guys, as I'm sure you are all aware, we are approaching the first anniversary of the tragic and shocking soretoes incident.
Does anyone know if the club are planning anything to mark the occasion? Some kind of memorial service would be nice, something discreet and respectful to show that we feel Nigel's pain and stand shoulder to shoulder with him as he attempts to rebuld his life after this disturbing and heinous crime.

Perhaps the Fans Forum could look into this?
I understand "Clarks shoe shop" on the Charlton retail park will remain closed for the day, and commemorative pair of Wayfinders(with the compass in the heel) will be available on production of a Palace season ticket
I saw a shocking picture of the injured fan in the local press recently. He had obviously ventured out in public and found his toe playing up so much that he had to be supported by some well meaning passerby.
The Palace fans were hoping to mark the anniversary with a return to the scene of the crime, but unfortunately the venue couldn't be arranged, as they were no longer in the same league.

Defend your self like a man or you still crying that the big nasty Charlton fans dont agree with you
Early plans are in place to hold a Benefit Night for it. The Walker Brothers are headlining, supported by The Strollers
Hans Zimmer has agreed to compose a special piece of music for the occasion
He really wasn't feeling glad all over was he.

"Wot?"
"May I suggest you move a bit further down the stand?"
"Why?"
"So everyone else can have a go at standing on your foot"
