I sent an email to the club on March 24th, as detailed
here. (Beware, I waffle on in the email - in a very similar manner as I often do on here...!)
Today I've managed to get an answer from the club:
Thank you for your email.
In regards to Mr Duchatelet meeting fans, he met when a select group in February and there was a full exchange of views of issues like recruitment, communication, supporter relations, finance and commitment to the club. They were select people from the target20K group and fans forums.
We are disappointed that you are currently unhappy with the current state at the club but we are all working very hard to upturn the fortunes of CAFC for the better.
Kind Regards
The Supporters Relations Team
If you read my original email you'll see they didn't answer my concern about the group not being a fair representation of the fan base at the moment, and thus the meeting being pointless. However, Target20K are now implicated when I thought they had denied any involvement?
Comments
They were people from the target 20k group, so could be club employees.
They were also people from the fans forums, so could be club employees.
This is what they mean by select.
They can hold their heads up high because they tried - somebody had to. But it's time for them to withdraw, and say so as loudly as they can.
I'll be in touch with The Supporters Relations Team and see what feedback comes from it.
To be fair that took some effort, because they don't actually do any actual work otherwise.
I picture them lounging around in offices, idly spitting orange pips into wastepaper bins, trying to outdo each other in thinking up the next thing to piss the fans off.
They never engage with the real world because it is full of billboard salesmen.
I would add bone idle, to incompetent and vindictive and deluded.
Who are the CAFC Target 20k ?
Do any of them work at The Valley ?
Are any of them Fans Forum Reps ?
Are any of them on the C.A.R.D. "board" ?
Are any of them involved with Valley Gold ?
Actually, how many people are "CAFC Target 20K" ?
