Too many here would watch their mrs get shagged by the boss for 4 years and then when the boss has stopped shagging her and is just being a normal boss they would say oh it’s all ok now hes not doing anything wrong now . We have some proper lame fans, all deferential to Roly cos we’ve won a few games
That’s unfair. You cannot call fans lame for wanting to forgot the off field problems and concentrate on what could be a good season on the pitch.
Those defending him I don’t agree with, but some fans want to watch us win games and care little about the ownership issues, that doesn’t make them any less a fan.
Agreed, but it doesn't make them any less short-sighted. What will their reaction be when all our best players leave because they are out of contract? This situation will arise even if we are promoted. This embarrassing takeover business must be sorted ASAP.

I disagree, of course it does, if you dont care about the clubs fortunes and only the teams fortune, then, at some point you wont have a club left to support.
Sorry I don't agree. I accept people need to care about the long term future of the club. But do you believe Roland will allow us to go into administration? I don't, so although he isn't backing the club nor is he good for the club, I would still prefer us to get promotion under him then stay in League 1 under new owners.
So for me supporting the team and getting good results in the priority at this moment in time. If that makes me a 'lame' fan then so be it.

Totally agree, but they are two different issues. Some fans prefer not to worry about things they have no control over. I don't think it is fair to say they are any less fans then those who spend their lives depressing over the fact that Roland is our owner.

It's just as well that some fans do worry about things they have no control over otherwise we might still be playing at shithurst.
Wasn’t Duchâtelet taking lower bids for players for cash? Entirely possible he’ll take X for the club, but a lower price with future add ons for promotion etc. He clearly has never been in a hurry to sell. He probably enjoys making the Aussies and the Brits squirm.
[Edit: As I see others have said]
Douchebag's attitude to player sales is skewed by his delusion that players are interchangeable e.g. Konsa sold = no problem cos Naby is back, or Reza for Yann K! Douchebag's attitude to selling the club is skewed by his delusional fuckwittery, supreme arrogance and absolute ignorance of how football clubs operate, despite 7 or more years ownership of up to 6 clubs in 5 countries.
Love it. Absolute mastery of the English language. And makes sense too.
I am uncomfy with the growing but worrying trend of 'at least Roland is better than the ghost of Col Gaddafi, be careful what you wish for, he hasnt put a foot wrong COYA!' type posts now we are winning a few games.
On field progress is down solely to the playing and coaching staff.
On terrace progress (bigger gates/away followings)is down solely to the supporters who are buying into the above and coming to terms with their own emotions.
The club under Roland still lacks a SMT, any obvious plan for progression, any signs of true ambition or any attempt to heal rifts with the majority of the supporter base.
Real progress for our club is in limbo until he leaves, whoever the new owners may or may not be to my mind.
And it will be a big wake up call if any of the following happen:
- Jackson to Luton - Taylor to Millwall - Grant to Rangers
We are on a knife edge and Roland has the sharpener.
February 1st will be D day for Charlton's hope this season and the new owners need to be in situ by end of February.
Jackson, Taylor and Grant must still be here or the decline of Cafc under Duchatelet continues ad mortem.
I guess we (at least) have to worry about any player out of contract in June that would command a substantial fee. At worst, well knock yourselves out I guess..

@bobmunro nails it......not to mention the Belgium protesters, those that produced all the 'protest' items and all the protesters that gave up their time behind the main stand...but hey as long as you can just come and support the team thats all right.
Do people who are happy for Roland to stay until the summer realise that the team they are currently enjoying watching are very unlikely to be here next year?
We need a takeover now or at least in February. If not for any reason, but so that new owners can begin immediate contract negotiations with players due to leave for nothing at end of season.

Is there a single person who is happy for Roland to stay until the summer? I don't think so.

Some of the comments would seem to suggest otherwise.

I’m not arguing with that but do you think that people who pay little attention to off the field problems are not real fans?
And also as I said, Roland will not move us away and we are not in danger of administration, he just happens to be a prick.

The protests were designed to get Roland out of the club. Last time I checked he was still the owner...
It's unfair to accuse people who are worried about the credentials of potential new owners of being Roland sympathisers.
I desperately want Roland out. But not to anyone, if we end up instead with owners who quickly run out of money because their plans don't add up.
You can worry all you like kaf. It’s totally and completely out of our hands and if you or anyone believes that Goldfinger would have the slightest concern about that then you can think again. He would sell to the devil himself if he suddenly rode in from hell and coughed up the required amount.
