Didn't hear a 2 unlimited chant but surely it would work better with 2 players (Man City sing it to the Toure brothers), Ricky Fuller and perhaps Hamer
Yep Greenie Junior's had enough of the agg. Not been to the Valley for a few games. At the moment hes not renewing, just going away games next season. I think the Police attention to what was explained to them and the club as a bunch of teenagers having fun and not a firm (makes me laugh that expression) was a pain. They lads started it with the best intention and I think they've been worn down, but if/when he sees this I'm sure he will answer.
On a personal note and, again, not wanting to get too involved, I dont blame him, I got fed up with some of the moaning posters on here saying that the RD shouldn't sing this song or that song, getting stick for flares, even though it was not them! There was even a cheeky message on one of the other threads 'blame the red division', which although posted in jest, people will see and the seed is sown. Through enough shit, etc. etc. It was just a bunch of teenage kids trying to start some atmosphere, thats all, but as usual on here and elsewhere he got too much stick from the old farts that shout loudest, he doesn't need it.
On the flipside, thanks to the other supporters who were positive, you know who you are.
I dont know what the other lads are up to in RD, I suppose we'll find out come August.
I can't say I've really noticed the "Red Division". What is the difference between a member and an ordinary Charlton Fan? If my son wants to join how does ho go about it?
It was informal andynelson. That was the whole point. Just some younger fans giving it a go in a semi organised manner to create some atmosphere. In my limited experience of seeing/ hearing them they did a great job and hopefully can carry on adding to the atmosphere regardless of what banner they go under and hopefully might have inspired a few others too
I am not surprised he got pissed off with it. The police is one thing but your own fans offering you constant advice on what they'd do / what to sing / what not to sing / what speed to sing at etc must have been tedious.
Being accused of flares and seats etc wouldn't have helped.
Shame that greenie tbh a real shame i would hope that the OB and the shoddy behaviour of Those at the club who shouldve embraced and assisted them are the main cause and not listening to other fans who do little or nothing to be vocal other than moan and groan whinge and generally have no life other than
NLA its a combination of things as i posted above im sure he'll correct me if im wrong! I'm sure he will be back but at the moment he's gone cold over it! On the plus side we have not lost since he stopped going so he's locked in my cellar until end of May! ;o)
Think the 'group' as a name has finished. I said to the boys I couldn't be arsed with the aggro, from police and from fans. Some fans weren't singing songs because we started them and got told a few 'fellas' were lining up to have a 'word' with us lot. As if grief from the police wasnt enough, you get it from your own fans and it just seemed like wasted effort on our front. Most the boys agreed. The lads all still go home and away though.
Haven't been to The Valley since Millwall as I'm just not enjoying it there anymore, as a day and I find myself thinking why am I here? There's been an almost poisnous atmosphere between our own fans this season IMO.
Won't be renewing but will be going to always cos as a day, win or lose I enjoy it more.

Will be back at the valley for the Bristol game
It's a shame that, not surprised though, charlton fans are there own worst enemies at times
You shouldnt be feeling like that about football until you have kids of your own and things become more important at home
You need to not give a feck about opinions mate
If you go back to any popular culture the longevity of such groups results from not giving a shit like punks , skins, mods, teddys,
And never let ob or stewarding put you off its them you irritate when games are poor as long as you dont step over the boundry of legal - illegal
Most know you were just harmless lads trying to generate noise i know it didbt sit well with all but tbh you were not a hoolie firm and if people got embarresed by it or offended then they need to look at themselves if we have fans that want to be hoolies then i would hope they would want to have a word with hoolies not shirters and understand that those actions are frowned upon and therefore i woukd doubt it was anyone to be concerned about

Was that RD around him? I'm trying to remember which player at the 2unlimted chant, was it Pritchard?
Don't think it was RD.

The young kid is a guy called Taylor, he's hilarious, loves the singing!

Well done to those who scuppered it.

To engage in the behaviour mentioned above
