Here it is. In - if I may make so bold - black and white:

Charlton CEO Katrien Meire and Non-Executive Chairman Richard Murray will meet with fan representatives to discuss recent concerns surrounding the club.
Following a disappointing set of results on the pitch and the dismissal of former Head Coach Guy Luzon, the club’s hierarchy are fully aware of supporters’ discontent and wish to invite a representative from each of the groups sitting on the Fans’ Forum to meet with the duo and express their concerns.
The club will also randomly select a number of supporters from their database who will be invited to attend the meeting.
Both the CEO and Non-Executive Chairman are keen to address those concerns and open a meaningful and constructive dialogue with the fans at the meeting which will take place at The Valley during the week of the upcoming international break.
The club urge all fans who wish to express their concerns to be discussed at the meeting, to contact a Fans’ Forum representative by 5pm on Friday, November 6th.

All those that have no voice: Notably arse lickers that are happy to just be in front of this pair smile and agree. (Some West Stand Supporters maybe)!
How does this differ from a Fans Forum meeting (other than Murray is attending as well)?
Indeed. A fans forum was held 2 weeks ago (minutes not to be found on the club's website) Most of these views about fans concerns I hope were brought up then and at previous meetings, but the opinion appears to be whatever is brought up, suggested, or helping out seems to have been ignored by the powers that be.
Radomly selected fans will be ones that will toe the party line in my opnion. One or two lifers on here who had words with Meire and Murray in the past won't be selected. I would be happy to be proved wrong though, Charlton!
Well done them. Will they listen though? And if they do will it change anything? Maybe the loss of revenue at the turnstiles has woken them up. I hope the meeting stays civil or they won't do it again. This has to be a positive step.
The FF has a restrictive remit, but why randomly selected fans need to be invited who knows, shame another gimmicky approach has to be applied and shows once more a lip service approach, and a reluctance to accept a body that is democratically constituted to represent charlton fans as a whole.
It is the Trust who has been seeking this form of dialogue, not the FF or random fans

that is good news, should get a real cross section of the support then
I want to hear directly from RD not Murray or Meire.
I hope they don't advise the 'lucky' few by post!
