Boycott

As someone who continues to traipse along to "home games" between 85 and 92, I don't suggest this lightly.
However, given the disastrous system this owner is using to accelerate the club to the Vanarama league, is it not now time for a boycott of all home games ?

    I've already started as have many going by the past few attendances, but it'd be nice to see a formal one organised.

    Not been this season and that will continue to be the case until the circus moves on.

    I have already started. In fact I only went to my last game because I enjoy the company of the people I sit with. Even that is not enough now.

    Thousands already have. Protests involving a couple of hundred people or wearing scarfs is going to do diddly squat in my opinion ( although I respect the people who organise these things). The people running our club just don't Care.
    Boycotting games is the only thing that might make him think.

    Away games only until they've gone. Mess up her finances PowerPoint graphs

  • Many will never boycott. Many already are (myself included). The attendances are in free fall and getting people back will be some feat, particularly if the club stays on it's current course.
  • Yep, this week's the final straw for me, no more games for me, will turn up for any protests

    It's a yes from me.

    Won't happen - too many fans, myself included probably, just can't do it.

    But I would happily turn up and give them a piece of my mind for 90 minutes and take part in something that gets the attention of the widespread media.

    2% banners and scarves don't do that. Neither have achieved any sign of change.It's getting to the point where something drastic needs to be done.

    Boycott a single home game. Show them what they're going to turn the club into. People can go if they want before or after but we need to agree one game where no one will go

    Very sadly I already have. And I absolutely hate saying that.
    The players need supporting but at this juncture we have to be cruel to be kind.
  • If it's to be one game, I'd suggest Blackburn on the 23rd January ?

    I agree wholeheartedly with this, it would be even better if everyone remained in the West Stand car park throughout the game.

    Yes.
    Would you still visit your favourite restaurant after the environmental health dept had found a serious rat infestation?

    That's how I feel about it at the moment.

    Sad thing is it doesn't need to be that way and could be remedied
  • I'd rather a mid game walkout or similar. Boycotts just look like a crap crowd

    Maybe a completely empty stadium might give them something to think about but we all know it will never happen.

    An empty ground apart from one man at the back of the NWQ with a Charlton shirt on and a cap.

    Its only one game. Boycott a single game, or even a single half (by walking out). All this about "I couldn't do it" really gets me. Miss 90 minutes of Championship Football or watch the club fall apart? Make a stand, make them take us seriously or simply wave bye bye to Charlton as we know it.

    Think a walk out is a great idea.

    I'm sure a lot of fans have things like a run of unbroken home games going on and wouldn't boycott for that reason - and of course some just don't feel they could boycott anyway.

    However, all that said Katrien would probably laugh and Roly wouldn't give a shit.

  • Reports say Dervite and Yann will appear in January. Is that sufficient to head off boycotts? Many will falter. It would boost on-pitch performances. For me the malaise goes deeper than getting a couple of decent players in. Fans have to accept - well actually no we don't.

    Propaganda, don't believe a word of it.

    Where are these reports coming from? The same place that said we were going to resign Yann on the morning of the Sheff Wed game?
  • Nope from me

    Would be some achievement by the Belgians to halt Seb.
