Let KM hold it on a Saturday night and no one buy tickets. It is in the fans hands, lots of talk, let us see action, if fans do not get the POYA when they want it, do not go
Just for balance KM said that the players want it to be on the Saturday. Irrespective as to tradition I can understand the players desire. They finish for their summer holiday on Saturday and then have to come in, again, on the Sunder evening.
I'm all for protesting and all that but let's not start behaving like KM and 'change the facts' to suit out agenda.
Also if you watch the video it is obvious that they are backtracking before the meeting is even finished. My best guess is that it will be on the Sunday but if we vote for a player that has left (especially if it's because he is disruptive and the other players are happy with his exit) then we have to expect them to all to refuse to turn up at all next year.
We are a laughing stock, let's not make it any worse with cheap stunts and insulting the players by voting for someone that has left.

Sorry, more BS from KM I'm afraid.
All of the players that I have spoken to, which is basically all of them, like the event
Oscars are sometimes clearly awarded to an actor not for a performance in the current year but for a lifetime's devotion to the industry without ever winning the big prize. In the same way we could agree this year to vote for Johnny Jackson as the fans' acknowledgement of his sterling contribution over the years and continued dedication to the cause.

I never said they didn't like it, just that it was suggested that the players wanted it on the Saturday.

A lot of them like the Sunday as they make it an all day affair (and night for a lot of them)
As I said earlier - KM expressed changing it to a Saturday after the match event over a year ago
Blimey, ten years already? That's a good shout. reckon we would get a solid turnout at a charlton local to celebrate and have a CL Player of the Year do and can ignore anything the club hijacks.

It is normal for players to train for at least a week after the season ends, unless going on international duty, I believe

How man off the players she spoke to are still here?
Quote from the Fans forum thread, Dansk_Red said -
"I think the lady who spoke about organizing the POTY was taken aback when Iain said he was not interested in being involved if the club wanted to organize it to take place after the Burnley game on the Saturday. She has 12 weeks to organize it, I can not see an of the fans (Fanny) wanting to collect votes etc. The fans could make a total farce of it by voting for TWW."
It was very clear from the fans forum, that Katrien wants the POTY "do" on a Saturday, even though this is patently no good for supporters, who have been to the game in their football attire and would not be able to change for the evening. As with everything she does, this is pure incompetence or damn right deliberate, to discourage supporters from attending.
She also wants to invite the community trust, in order to dilute the amount of supporters there and in doing so, prevent/reduce any negative comments that would be coming her way.
There is no way she must be allowed to succeed, but she will plough on regardless.
So, on this basis we must not let the event happen as it is NOT what the supporters want. It is the supporters POTY.
On this basis I strongly urge all supporters to vote for either Tony Watt or someone else, in order to make a mockery of the event.
If the POTY "do" goes ahead as normal, then I retract the above.
Isn't it likely that if we did all vote for Watt, that the club would just announce second place as the winner?
Like a few have said, maybe a difficult player to work with, but the best we have/had. Maybe he had the bollocks to stand up to the present regime and think he is better than it.

Good to see her listen to those that know

To make an impact it has to be 'doing' something.
I would get behind the idea of voting Tony Watt.
No middle ground with Col.
