What a brilliant video.
Absolutely proud to be part of this football family!
Well done all.

On a train so not yet watched the video but assume it is by the reporter who was on the coach to Belgium?
A decent chap and true football fan, especially if his write up for us is positive after we smashed his team twice this season (he's a gasshead)0 -
Absolutely brilliant video!
There is a certain irony that the two papers that are slated on here the most, The Guardian and The Mail, are the two that have published the most in support of ordinary Charlton fans.21 -

Oh my goodness.1

Great stuff and thanks to those who spoke with quite dignity and passion but he's still here. I'll be there on Sunday.2

Brilliant video.0

Loved the guy with the short ginger hair and the glasses (that looked a bit like Alf Garnett) having a rant on the microphone in Belgium.
(My round I suppose mate?).0 -
I can't make Sunday but massive appreciation to all of you that do go, and make a difference. You're the lifeblood of our club.
EDIT: And after posting the above I've watched the video. Wow. Any fatalistic thoughts regarding how long I can handle the Belgian regime have receded. I'll be back next season Roland to help make you leave our club for good. I love Charlton Athletic, but do you know what, I love Charlton Athletic Fans even more.11 -

Superb timing for our final push of this season this Sunday. Not sure if that was planned but surely this will get a few more foot soldiers against Swindon.1

That's where you think positively (about all of our great fans) and all I think about is the fuckwit Charlton fans who continually brown nose this fucked up ownership and I despise them for not removing the shit from their eyes and seeing what a mess these pricko owners of ours are making of our club .LeaburnForEngland said:I love Charlton Athletic, but do you know what, I love Charlton Athletic Fans even more.

Brilliant video.
My favourite bit is Clive trying to name the Charlton managers much like a schoolboy trying to list English monarchs .. Guy,.King Carol, Riga the Second, ..5 -
Excellent video. Measured, factual and appropriate. I'm away Sunday but hope it all goes well.0

Excellent video from the Guardian. Great timing for this Sunday0

This post sums up exactly how I feel. I will be there on Sundaybromleyjohn said:My mojo for continuing the protests outside the ground was flagging before watching this video and now I can say I have been well and truly energised by it. I was going to turn up to protest as and when before the game on Sunday. Now I will get there that bit earlier. Well done whoever put this together and well done for re-inspiring fans like me.

I've watched it a couple of times now and looking at the background its safe to say he might not have listed them all off correctly as it looks fairly edited.HarryLime said:Brilliant video.

Sorry Clive. Please try harder.

Brilliant video. Ordinary fans striving to restore the heart and soul of our great club. More power to the protests.
What a contrast to the stupid, snivelling, self-interested apologists. Shame on each and every one of you. In particular the saddo who pathetically attempts to ingratiate himself with the CEO. She probably thinks less of him than we do. (if she ever thinks of him at all)3 -
Cant see how anyone could criticise this video.
Eloquently spoken proper fans trying to make a difference.
Well done to The Guardian.2 -
That's the Charlton I recognise. What a great video that is.
Will be there on Sunday at 11.00.5 -

Succint and powerful (strings on a soundtrack can do that to a film). I do hope KM and the SMT do bother to watch and not dismiss open handedly as I can picture them doing. And I hope that if they do watch it they realise how utterly wrong their way has been. If they stay may this sort of thing guide them going forwards but preferably they would just realise they have to go.0

very very good film0

A classy film which can only gain extra support from across football.

Hats off to The Guardian. Really good piece of work. We couldn't have made a better protest video if we'd tried.5
-
As others have said, great video, great fans. Wasn't going to come on Sunday but I have changed my mind after watching that.5
-
South London Pride. I just feel in awe of some of our fans. It isn't going to end until he's gone. I feel a lump in my throat whenever I see our club being spoken of in such terms of endearment.
We all feel the same pain. Sadly the only one now not feling it is the cause.2 -
Forgot to comment on here, but as I said on twitter, I had forgotten he was on our coach, even though he seemed to film everything and took a real interest in our Ypres visits too. He could have been forgiven for staying in a nice warm coach, but he was there with the rest of us hearing about "Nobby" Nightingale, etc., in the driving rain and biting wind. Showed great interest and dedication to the cause, so am delighted he did such a great video, which really did us proud. He was brilliant and has my thanks.18

what a great video , shows we are committed we are a family . this is so much more than being about our club our beloved Charlton this is about our history our beloved game , the football league are not interested , the FA dont give a shit because we are not a premier league team . our protest group are the best in the country . We have to join with others and get this fit and proper person act looked into . The league and FA cant run themselves so they have no interest in us , Maybe they should take a leaf out of our protest group and have a common cause . There is so much money going around in the game if we dont watch out it will kill it4

Superb.
Some very eloquent and insightful comments from those interviewed - well done folks!1 -
You're not the only one. Heather really hit the nail on the head there.Henry Irving said:I love Heather's analogy of a football club being like a listed building.
I wish I'd said that.
(Don't worry, Henry, you will, you will)3
