One of the saddest things for me about this whole bitter saga is RM, it appears he is just at the club to get his money back (understandably), and allegedly he will say or do anything to facilitate this happening. He has taken the Roland shilling and now along with RD, Pinnochio and KF is considered the enemy. The line has been drawn and he is on the other side and after all the great work he has done for the club, for me this is a bad day in our history. I will be there for the first protest, I will watch the match and then will join the second protest and I will be calling for RD, KM, CF and sadly RM to piss off.

@Airman Brown to what degree do you think is Murray aware of the discontent?
Was his call prompted by the mainstream press coverage, the chanting on Monday just gone or are they following Social Media as well?
It may seem like a stupid question, but this lot seem adept at missing the blinding obvious!!
Edit - of course he will have read VOTV - but main question still stands!!!
I'm sure he's very aware, but of course until it is takes the form of large numbers protesting in person much of it can easily be dismissed as the preserve of fanatics on message boards, etc, i.e. the 2%.
Incidentally, I think the idea that RM is in it to get his money back is misconceived. He chose to leave money in the club in 2010 (Jimenez takeover) in order to remain on the board. I think it's much more personal in his case.
Indeed. I think the bloke's been trying to Right a Wrong for many years now. Problem is, every time he tries to do things he sees as a positive, it just seems to shovel us deeper into the hole he helped create.
If Varney stepped in and righted it, that would probably tip him over the edge.

Parasite.
Who? Care to elaborate?
I think he meant RM. I hope so, anyway!
Indeed! Thoughts from brain to forum are sometimes a little tough for some!
I think it would help the protest if people were a bit pissed. We ran out of songs after about five minutes before Sheff Wed-the alcohol might bring out the creative juices in people whilst making us angrier (if possible) at the same time.
I'll be there and hope to be merry but will keep things clean with no xenophobia nor mentions of STDs.
Sssssh, people get on their soapbox about this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tell you why Elfsborg addick ?
Because after having a couple in Bartrams and then having a few more in crossbars against QPR, i fell off the fuc#er !
Didn't mean to come across like a born again, but we could win a battle if not a war, and unlike Richard Dunn i don't want us to score own goals.
Lets stay united for the Athletic.
Okay, friends again.
Next time you go for a drink choose another gaff, my first round!

Not a good idea for me. 10 mins into protest and I'll want another wee. Can't see them letting me back in to use the toilet.

We need to make this big. The 90minutes inbetween mean fuck all in the long term, let's raise awareness and get our foot on the ladder up towards RD and swipe him down to earth claiming OUR club back while we are at it.

I will be there before and after to protest but if you want me and many others to lessen the might and power pf the protest then just start the same old slagging of any personalities countries etc as you will find I and many like me start to drift away pretty quickly and by 5pm you will have failed in uniting the charlton supporters (man woman child) so I beg you to keep people like me on board for the sake of the club and the effect this protest has.

Yes, but realistically it's going to happen at some point. We need people like you to stay part of it and help to shape the character of the protest.

Yes, but sing along with the chants you agree with and keep quiet to any that you don't. But please stick around, even towards the back. We need hundreds there please and preferably thousands.
Come on, what's more important OUR club, or a few chants that you/we may find unpleasant ?
It's not a perfect world and we'll never all agree on everything, but please Charlton fans show some courage.
I'm no youngster (I remember seeing John Hewie) but I am looking forward to tomorrow and see it is as a turning point in this great club's history. It's not over by a long chalk, but I think it could be a turning point. I sincerely hope so.
It is for the people of all characters and none to show some courage and not get pissed and therefore lend themselves to the possibility of becoming objectionably obscene. As soon as it kicks off people will leave as they only want to be part of a protest that takes itself seriously. Is it too much to ask those 20 or so lead singers to bear this in mind? There are plenty of songs without obscenities and with lots of clever banter in them that can keep everyone involved. Please please do your best to bear this in mind.
If some bells start singing shit I and my 3 young sons won't join in but I won't mince off crying that a few bellends offended a Belgian bird who is fucking with my club Just like when our inbred posse start singing the incest song or other bollox I ignore it and don't join in , I don't get up and walk out of the ground Come on let's have a bit of passion and support for this protest
As a nice friendly gesture shall we all put our phone lights on as well ,like the kids do at concerts , cost it'll be dark by 5pm and it will help avoid potholes :-)
If the car park exit gate's blockaded, maybe those sat in the queue of traffic can sound their horns in support of 'Duchatelet: You're not wanted here'.

Don't let the daft minority ruin what you are fighting for, if a rowdy few start getting aggy and swearing in a pub you're in, would you leave that also? Just because you're in the same crowd as them it doesn't mean you agree with what they are saying. We have to remember this is football, and it'll be young angry fans after some alcohol, essentially fighting for their club. Swear words will happen and rude sentiments may too, but to them that is nothing compared to seeing the Football Club of their future being torn apart (I know older men do the same too, just an example)
Either way try to stick with it, if you need to remove yourself, stick to a further back point perhaps and keep within seeing distance?
My 11 year old season ticket holding daughter has asked if I'll take her to the protest. I told her I would but she might not like some of the language she hears. Her response? It can't be any worse than you after 4-5 beers!
Due to my wife being admitted to hospital tonight I will no longer be able to attend either protest or match but would like to wish you all the very best of luck. COYR!!!

Hope your missus is well soon Redvalleyeast. I now have my kids with me for tomorrow so the 'going for a pint while the game is on' idea has gone for a burton. Too skint to buy tickets for the game so we will be there just for the 5pm protest. Looking forward to playing a small part in overthrowing the evil empire and my two should enjoy it as they are only allowed to swear when they go to Charlton!
Richard Murray is losing his Marbles if he thinks Karel Fraeye is the man to get us out of this mess
Also no chance of getting his money back with a promotion to the premiership because that ain't never going happen under Duchatelet and Meire. Doesn't make any sense, because with a potential take over, or a properly resourced club, there is a chance that he will get his money back. Why would Murray stick with Duchatlet, when Charlton are running close to relegation or being relegated every season ?
Exactly. Murray is backing the wrong people if he thinks the Belgian Mafia will ever get Charlton back to the Premier League.
He will never get his loan back.
And considering he appointed Dowie, Reed and Pardont, he obviously does not know what he is talking about regarding the feckless Fraeye.
Fraeye is obviously well out of his depth. Sad to say this, but maybe Murray always was, too. But was able to ride Curbishley and Varney's coattails during the Premier League years.

You do realise it's more than 2%, right?
