Could a councillor be doing his job and representing the views of some concerned supporters in Greenwich or have the board been messing around the council?
He doesn't appear to reply directly to tweets. Tho he may pop up with another opinion shortly. Will watch. Roberts wouldn't be on twitter. Would be afraid of the scorn he would receive.
Actually i wonder if he posted it after reading this tweet from The Charlton Society this morning (who had a committe meeting last night):
TheCharltonSociety @TheCharltonSoc 4h Another big issue was a worrying potential threat to relocate The Valley football ground outside Charlton.All were strongly against this.

Charlton dogs - can't do a link thingy, I'm afraid, but if you google Charlton Greyhound Stadium the sixth item is headed J.Stone etc and on there is a wonderful aerial picture from 1947.

.... and I now notice that amongst several other pictures attached there are some showing the dog track and one which shows The Valley.

I'm going to put it to the Trust team that we should approach Cllr Fahy and ask him if he can help us understand what's behind his comments.
Which of course does not stop anyone else from asking him, or Roberts come to that, but preferabley those on the Greenwich electoral roll.
It would be interesting to know, given the context of the Clubs ownership situation. Fahy would be aware that we are trying to sell the Club to any who can get the right loan from Wonga and therefore the current board would not strictly speaking have any plans for the Valley other than what is in the prospectus. So is there something behind this about ownership that is not in the public domain or is it just an uninformed comment?

"That's right lads, take it from me... there's no way this takeover can go wrong.... No. No. No. Noooooo!"
Cllr John Fahy @Cllrjfahy 8m
When is Charlton Athletic going to come clean on it future plans for the Club . Important for the Board to clarify the future of the Valley.

Nevertheless it might be interesting to draw Cllr. Fahys attention to the answer, and ask him why he thinks things might have changed since then.
Anybody know anything about him?
The story with him and Roberts is partly on here.

Do we need to be worried?

Good to see a local group wanting to keep the club in Charlton rather than being NIMBYish.
