Very difficult for a large group of people travelling through Europe to meet up in a single town to protest - even peacefully - without involving the local Constabulary.
Much as I'd love to see this happen, realistically, smaller groups going over several times will have the element of surprise and a similar effect PR wise. Whether it's CARD, the Belgian20 or the #thewrongclub groups who do it.
We need to seriously develop the relationship with the STTV fans.
Good point. Seems like most locals there already know what he's like, and there's only so much impact you can make on local TV/Media. But it does piss him off. It would have to coincide with a 'good' period for the team - if the team were performing badly he'd just associate the protests with a dislike for KR/bad results... It really needs to happen next season when we're 6th in L1 (or 1st in L2?) - otherwise he'll just sack KR and bring in C'OL: to him, the football is all about percentages (players) and turnover (loans to the club) and assets (grounds/players/name). He has his network system clearly stamped out in his mind, although substituting players around his network, above all between inferior leagues and ours, will never work. I think that, over three years, Meire's eventually worked that out, but she's so deluded and up her own arse that she can't actually accept that he's wrong - and therefore, in blindly supporting him, she's been wrong: and Meire won't ever accept she's been wrong (let the flags fly inNorth Korea!).
Next season we'll start in L1 - we'll never get promoted nor relegated - the crowds will be even lower - hence the protests will be even lower (because there isn't anyone there).... I suppose the time to bite (for Card) is around March, when they can say 'you've achieved nothing except 2 years in L1; you've lost all of the revenue (i.e. the club operates at a continual loss, much as it does now)... how can that despicable excuse for a CEO continue then? But she probably will...
So, yes, hit him where it hurts - in Belgium: he thinks he's a demi-god, so let's show him he isn't
I'm in, just need to know when. I think we are going to need more than 1Taxi, more like 20 wrapped Double decker buses. I think his 'Weak spot" has been found, now lets pile pressure on it.
In of course with as many mates as I can muster. I think though this needs to be CAFC protest only as joining forces with network fans and Sttv will detract from our sole cause. Appreciate that things could be easier with support of Belgium fans, however, our number 1 cause is Charlton and imo we need to make sure Roland sees /hears this without our numbers being lost in swarms of disgruntled Belgium fans which would be 10 times Charlton turn out if joint protest was arranged. Your thoughts on this please.
May have already been suggested but given how proud RD is of his electronics company Melexis then that should probably be worth a target. Shares are around £60 and one share gives an invite to the AGM. Lots of effective protest could be had there...
I think having fans from other clubs involved will bother him. He will see it as us spreadin contagion within his empire which might make him more likely to get rid IMO.

Bit odd that they take pleasure from Charlton fans being called stupid.....
Many of them also seem to struggle at stringing a sentence together.
