    Genuine question but did anyone within the supporter base know Gavin Carter or seen him at a game before he appeared on Twitter defending Sandgaard junior?

    Just curious to know how someone who the club puts out as 'lifelong supporter' and yet I have not come across anyone who remembers seeing or going to games with him from years gone by.

    Varney, Simmons, Bobe and White were very known/seen as supporters before they officially got involved with the club.
    I’ve thought the same since he was first announced.
    I expect he was more likely a West Stand home fan, that rarely went away (pure speculation based on the fact not one person have said they recognize him).
    I was right then. :)

    You were at the Bromley Addicks thing when he literally said he sat in the West Stand. Hardly breaking news.  🤣
  • If you're in the CAFC hierachy you're almost certainly sitting in the West Stand.

    You've brought this up a lot, do you have a problem with the West Stand?

    No, other than it's boring.
    Can you guess where I prefer?
    I've got a hunch!
  • I would suggest it was the Spivs who smashed the club infrastructure up, if you look at the long list of long-serving employees who left during and as a result of their tenure. No doubt Katrien and Ssndgaard contributed further damage and failed to put it right, but it’s been a basket case of an organisation for over a decade.
    Wouldn't disagree at all
    I thought some on here said the infrastructure / back of house stuff was already fixed / in course of being fixed and that’s why we should be hopeful about the future?

    Either things are being fixed where needed or it’s still an Elastoplast approach.

    We have people in key positions now eg Finance director, CEO, director of football, who are not unskilled relatives of the owner or Tony Keohane.

    Whether those current post holders eg those named on a similar thread are up to the task is the question.
    But potentially are just acquaintances of each other and not obviously found their positions after  a rigorous selection process. 

    To me doesn’t prove infrastructure is improved. But I’m happy to be told more behind the scenes stuff is changing.

    Did you read the next paragraph?

    Andy Scott is by any measure more experienced and qualified than Martin Sandgaard, ditto Rodwell/Methven than Realynn Malony.

    Does that make them suitable for the roles they are in?  Not from what we are seeinng from the outside.

    I'll have you know that Keohane is held in high regard by those that know him and everyone else is wrong! 😉


    I had heard about this but never seen it.  Pisses me off more than it should probably, but Keohane employed security who had young Charlton staff up against a fence and also took other fans to court iirc.  For Rodwell to send a message like that around shows an enormous lack of judgment in my opinion.

    The shite transfer business with him having a football related role is another show of his judgment.

    And finally, he was the one in the summer waxing lyrical about the new pitch!!!

    Bin him off.

    Was that game against a fence incident against Coventry or is my memory playing tricks on me? 
  • Every time I see this thread I think of The Manics...
  • There is only one thing 99% of supporters care about , and that is results on the pitch.
    Post of the week for me.

    Agree. Problem is that most of the other 1% seem to post on here.
