This seems to have turned into a thread about offensive songs. My personal gripe with the Addams Family song is that it is embarrassing due to its moronic and puerile nature. Offensive? That's for others to judge. I'd just prefer it if we showed a little more class.
Definition of adversarial: a person, group, or force that opposes or attacks; opponent; enemy; foe.
Does this mean that SCotland Yard have set up an incident room for every Charlton away game.....once again a perfect example of gross exageration,
If our fans away are deemed to be "adversarial" would be interesting to see what the other clubs are in the league, this post is nearly as boring as the takeover thread
I strongly feel that we should as a freindly, family club offer an apology to those poor Norwich fans & by way of contrition we should sing the following to their away fans when we next meet up..
Your sister is most definitely not your mother,
Your father of course, is in no way your brother.
You always behave marvellously to one another,
The Norwich family
clap, clap
etc etc
It might not scan too well, but I'm sure the Canaries will appreciate the gesture

[cite]Posted By: WSS[/cite]God knows. But you did not specify a number to make the act of violent conduct good to see.
The Norwich Evening News reports - "Police were forced to intervene after some football fans became aggressive following the game. A number of public order notices were handed out and one person was removed from the grounds after his behaviour became “unacceptable”."
Nobody arrested and the worse case is some people became "aggressive" and behaved "unacceptably" - sounds like Christmas day 'round at my Nan's !
Can't help but think that peoples chants could be better used by getting behind the team, it's just a generally unfunny song but each to their own. I thought the atmos was good, so fair play to everyone for that more than the one song that is being focused apon.
Had a brilliant day Saturday despite the late equaliser. If I had kids would I take them to an away game though? No. Getting called a 'bunch of C***s' by one of your own fans for asking if they would mind sitting down when everyone else at least ten rows behind were is beyond me. Especially when he spent 90% of the game goading the Norwich fans and not watching the game at all. Hey ho.

sounds par for the course in my opinion, sad but true.

To answer you question, no nothing like that. They have a report on all away followings in London, ours has always been excellent for many years but has deteriorated a lot recently. However, ours comparable to Spurs, West Ham, Millwall, Chelsea etc would still look positively angelic.
[cite]Posted By: Goonerhater[/cite]the song aint funny and i dont sing it end of. If you dont like it dont naffing sing it. FFS what next the Fans Forum Aproved Song Sheet ?
the other thread re the "trouble" yesterday was sunk
there wasnt any.
As i said and Tavern as well. It was a good day out, good company, nice enough place , sun was out, and a good game.
i have been told that the wheels on the bus song is offensive i dont agree i think it is funny however i understand some dont, i think the addams family song when sang to anyone nth of watford is funny because that is my humour
when scousers look in the dustbin for something to eat is that funny or not allowed
when they find a dead cat and they think its a treat is that funny or not allowed
dirty nthn bstd funny or racist and not allowed
IT is football FFS people sing songs that is what they do every time this debate comes up there are those that preach it aint right we should stop we should take the lead we are a family club,
i know it aint right but it is not the worst song in the world, it was not a fooking riot on saturday so chill out it was a little bit of bravado you guys are flipping self righteous and crazy
On the way out, anyone else see the poor bloke in the Charlton shirt running after one of the Norwich coaches with about 5 kids in the back giving him the good old backward wave. Looked a bit red faced but he was determined I give him that, luckily the coach didn't stop. :-D
what do football fans expect, i mean a last minute equaliser the norwich fans are gonna celebrate by going nuts ffs, their team have been doing crap and the celebrations to me are a compliment (i remember in the good old days of top flight football after spurs had beaten us at the valley they were delighted liked they had won the cup final, it's a compliment no matter how farked off we all were/are)
we've all done it ourselves when we've got last minute winners/equalisers bouncing around goading gesticulating your delight towards the oppo fans with chorus's of your not singing anymore...

No problem with the song, whether it's funny or not, nor with a touch of general lariness or bravado -- been there, done that ... from a safe distance -- but someone on another thread mentioned racist abuse of one of our own players by some moron. That is not ok (nor would it be ok directed at the opposition) and those in the vicinity of said moron should not let it go unchallenged.

Yes but not since the good old days of Alan Curbishley and the only reason we could bounce about so much was the huge amount of room we had due to the poor away support.

That is shocking. Don't they know we are an East London Club?
