    It's a statement for the sake of making a statement because the protests have been all over national tv, we won't hear anymore.

    FUCK OFF YOU BELGIAN CUNTS

    Personally I find The Soapy Jones Official Statement resonates a little more with me than the club one ;-)

    Think that was for the media and those no fully up to speed with the state of the club rather than the fans, sorry, customers..!!

    The statement was for the media. But they have gained wider exposure today and will tomorrow too. Shame about the clown who ran on after the goal, but generally a great day in highlighting the deep unhappiness at the club. And shows that there can be no let up, even if we get a few wins. It's not just about this season, it's about the future.

    So what they need to do is speak to CARD and the Trust. If they are serious about building bridges with the fans.

    Not the first time I've heard said this week, Tuesday I was told this by someone totally unconnected to the club. Never repeated it because I thought it was dogs***

    agreed, this is the (good) work of the new head of comms, but it's far too little far too late

    So now they want to build a relationship. Very different to what Meire said just over a year ago. We had been told the owner does it his way and we had to accept that.

    From what I've read elsewhere on here, she didn't look that saddened when the cameras were pointing at her this afternoon. Pretty sure the word "smiling" was used.

    Must have been written by or advised by the new head of comms. Feel a bit sorry for her, losing battle.

    Its just a pacifying statement. Like a gran tapping you on the head saying "there there" when your upset.

    Hello Mel B.

    Ps. You are also responsible for the scoreboard where you decided to put up some message just before the 74th minute on the expectation we are all so stupid we would not realise the time. Good effort but you must try harder next time.

    Read a club statement in relation to events at The Valley during the match against Middlesbrough on Sunday afternoon

    The club is extremely saddened by the situation which has led to supporters demonstrating ahead of, and during, the match against Middlesbrough on Sunday.

    Every supporter has the right to voice their opinion and we are determined to do everything we can to work together with supporters to build our relationship with them and make sure they remain at the heart of this club.

    We would like to thank supporters for getting behind the team today as we picked up a valuable three points in our fight to stay in the Championship.

    Fuck off you ****s and whoever wrote that drivel employee or not. Patronising tossbags.

    EVERYTHING? So Katrien Meire is willing to have substantive discussions with the Supporters Trust regarding the strategy for the club, without using Johnnie Jackson as a human shield or diluting the discussion with day to day operational trivia? Roland is willing to employ a manager and other backroom staff with appropriate experience of the Championship / League One, and build a squad of players with sufficient experience of the English Leagues to allow our young players to develop appropriately rather than being thrown into a cobbled together group of misfits and no-hopers not suited for the rigours of the season ? Will they both accept that the prime factor in fans having a good matchday experience is success on the pitch? That we're supporters, not customers, and we want to support a football club, not a player farm?

    Yeah, right.

    And I'm a highly paid supermodel.

    Got any pics :blush:

    So now the Trust should issue a public statement asking to meet with Roland again. See what happens this time. And then publicise what happens.

    That's what the new communications manager gets paid to do, train katrien to communicate?

    Strange. Perhaps it's beginning to sink in ? That statement could only have come from Katrein or RD himself. Trouble is it's too little too late.

    I thought it was so out of character I assumed it would have been the new communications manager.
    good call

    Do not believe it. Just watched game on TV, seeing close ups of KM smirking does not look like she cares or is concerned the fans are fuming.
    Comments by Ian Holloway were good, does Roland really know what's going on?
    Coverage of funeral and beach balls excellent. The walk out a bit pathetic.
    Protests must continue until KM and RD are out.

    Hey Mel, can we have our beach balls back?

    We need to remember that every statement that has come from the club this year has largely been aimed at the media and not the fans. And a string of comments about engaging with fans, better communications etc has been utter bullshit followed by silence.

    You had your chance to work with supporters Katrien, you declined several times and instead, you've gone out of your way to aggravate fans.

    We've shown the entire country who you really are today. There's no turning back. Get out of our club and take Roland with you.
