We're looking into how on earth this happened. As you know, the big screen is done with the help of students, but that cannot be an excuse. An apology will go out at half-time.
It happened because you are all useless. It comes from the top. Absolute failures.
I agree totally some posts just read a bit too much pointingly at Olly and I may have read them in the wrong tone but olly wouldn't do anything to harm cafc
I am sure olly was aa embarrassed as the rest of us
Yes it's a disgrace and yes it's a shambles and embarrassing example of what's gone wrong at the club
But it was just a mistake
Checks and measures beforehand would ensure that such a massive cock up would not have taken place! This truly is basic stuff within an organisation and should be part of a routine process. This really is embarrassing and inexcusable; irrespective of how much you like Olly.
I agree it's pathetic and a shambles and everything else that's been said but it is a mistake made by a student
Somethings are just mistakes
You can badge it up all you like.
And why do you think they use students? Probably because the pay is between nothing and fuck all! I'm fuming!
I agree on those facts but olly is one of us not the regime, he has my support as a fellow addick and for that reason if he makes a mistake or has to be pulled up on his part in it then I would like to think he would be granted a chance to make a mistake

Olly, I know that negative messages at posters isn't on but this isn't aimed at you solely.....
Naff off blaming students and just admit you are all a bunch of utter cockwombles....

Far be it for me to comment, but I do think that the mention that "the big screen is done with the help of students" was inappropriate.
The identity of those operating the screen is immaterial. They were acting on behalf of the club, representing the club and it is the club that is responsible. All that needed to be said is that an error was made and a full apology would follow.
It's likely that there are very few still working at the club, especially in communications who knew Graham. However Keith Peacock certainly would, probably Chris Parkes as well, so just ask them to confirm. They even had Graham's correct photo up on the main site for the past couple of days. This is unbelievable and so embarrassing.
Lets just forget our feelings for a moment.The Moore family have lost a relative be it a Father, Son, Husband, Brother. They, I dare say would've been invited to The Valley to join others in celebrating the life of their recently departed loved one. How must they be feeling?
the whole episode is shameful and reflects very poorly on the club, Olly may have reacted to soon but thats because he was probably gutted. The truth his he is so short staffed that these things will happen more and more under the current regime.
It's even more of a shame as the club has a museum (not that we claim to own history @Off_it ) but have a number of supporters that could have helped with exactly this sort of event.
Incompetence from the CEO down to the students who were blamed. I'm even more disgusted to think that the current regime could offend the family of a Charlton player who passed away a few days ago. This is intolerable but typical of this stupid regime. I give up!!
Don't blame it on the comms team, don't blame it on the owner, don't blame on the chief exec, blame it on the students. To the tune of blame it on the boogie. That's a disgrace that it could happen to be honest. Sums the club up

The minutes appuluse was not a spur of the moment idea. They have had a couple of days to get this correct.
What a shambles of a club!
And why do you think they use students?

Surprised they didn't just go with this.

Olly fucked up big time by mentioning the students. Should have been an apology with no strings attached and no excuses.

A 'mistake' would be a typo or calling out the wrong number for a substitution.
