Well fuck me, just when we think things cannot possibly get any worse, Duchatelet comes out and backs the most inept CEO to front any kind of business I have ever seen. Im so glad Im 10,000 miles away as Im absolutely fucking fuming. Total boycott time I think, but thats easy to say from where Iam. Over to you guys in the frontline. Happy to put another £50 in the kitty for the protest fund. If there is anything I can do from here you only need to ask.
“We have sometimes made the same mistakes again. But in my businesses we have a culture of learning from mistakes. This is very common in industry. If you don’t do that you are stupid"
So RD learns from his mistakes then!!!! What evidence backs that statement up as I can't see anything other than someone being unbelievably stubborn!!! Nothing really said from the interview other than more bullshit and no actual hard facts. Waste of time.
“I diverted this email to my CEO to handle it. It is only five or six months later it became clear that what he wanted to talk about was a takeover of the club."
That really doesn't reflect well on KM does it? Maybe if she'd taken the opportunity to speak to PV then it may have been obvious straight away?
Having read them, how the fuck did this man succeed in business ? There are so many ridiculous comments in those 3 articles, I can't even begin to quote them.
Wow, RD really comes across as pretty thick in those interviews - he claims KM didn't call us customers despite the thing being available to watch on YouTube? How did someone like him amass such a vast fortune???
Not aimed at the hard core protesters. Aimed at those wondering whether to protest or not. SLP should now do a follow up with CARD / The Trust where some of the statements can be debunked.
We are not spending time on planning for relegation. That’s not something we want to do.
Fast forward 12 months when we're battling against relegation to League 2 you can just see them saying "we never expected this to happen". When are they going to wake up and smell the sodding coffee.
I'll leave others to pick it apart. I'm even more depressed. He doesn't worry how many mistakes he needs to make before he's an expert football club owner - and the club destroyed in the process. He should have gone to a football school, not bought Charlton as a learning project.
Having read that I very disappointed, he contradicts himself on many levels. When I have time to disseminate it fully, I'll put my thoughts against his comments on here.
Hey, the really important thing is that he wants us to be the nicest club in London (you know, the sort of club where no-one complains, or points out awkward stuff like the cretinous manner in which the regime is running the club....
A microcosm of his total non understanding is summed up in this quote “The main reason [they are unhappy] is that we are now bottom of the league. That’s a very concerning situation for all of us." Roland you just do not have a fucking clue you complete helmet.
Glad he's finally listened, and acknowledging that "most of the fans are extremely unhappy" (not just 2%).
However,
He hasn't learnt from mistakes, as they are still making them. He is still backing a completely incompetent CEO. The flannel he has given over PV's email for a takeover, is contemptable. He talks total rubbish about smaller squads. They create competition for places, and players up their games!
The man is full of BS, and CARD must continue until he gets the hint and gets lost!

What a non interview that is.
Time to step up the protests even more.
This is the best bit:
“We have sometimes made the same mistakes again. But in my businesses we have a culture of learning from mistakes. This is very common in industry. If you don’t do that you are stupid"
Quite.
Fuck off and sell up you complete tool.
You aren't learning from your mistakes Roland, so you are stupid.
I notice he never mentions trying to get promoted from the Championship even if we do stay up.
He thinks KM and RM are fantastic (big fan of yes men), and still thinks a small squad is a brilliant idea.
Little in the way of saying he'll invest in the squad, nothing regarding appointing competent managers.
Guff. Worrying guff at that.
Nothing will change, we need KM out, RM out, and him to sell up.
Nothing really said from the interview other than more bullshit and no actual hard facts. Waste of time.
He appointees a girl guide leader as CEO
His president is senile
He puts budget before success
He appoints Belgian dross in the management team
He recruits non footballers to his playing squad
That really doesn't reflect well on KM does it?
Maybe if she'd taken the opportunity to speak to PV then it may have been obvious straight away?
Arseholes!
Nice slap in the face there for Seb, Jean and everyone else who spends their hard - earned cash on this club.
CAFC 'only millionaire fans wanted" (unless you are a potential takeover/ investor...as then we don't want you either)

Roland - you really don't get it do you.

I noticed the same - not 'best' team, or 'most successful', just nice.
If and when CARD issue a statement , can they highlight this and set them straight!
Henderson, Dmitrovic, Pope, Mitov,
Fanni, Solly, Obileye, Thomas, Baeur, Johnson, Lennon, Texeira, Sarr, Holmes- Dennis, Fox
Gudmundsson, Ba, Jackson, Poyet, Cousins, Charles- Cook, Harriott, Muldoon, Bergdich, Kashi,
Sho - Silva, Pigott, Tucudean, Watt, Vetokele, Makienok, Lookman, Reza, Sanogo.
That is thirty four players.
