    The Bedfordshire FA rep sounds well dodgy.

    4 vacancies in the football league group so clearly so desperate they would even take her.

    Not only am I pissed off that she has managed to worm her way in, it's annoyed me that we're referred to as Charlton FC and not as Charlton Athletic FC. I can see plenty of other clubs with their full names listed. These needs to be changed asap!

    Edit: Just noticed @guinnessaddick made a passing comment on it also, so glad I'm not the only one.

    Surely this is good news. A great platform from which she will embarrass herself even more

    Is there anything we can do about this?
    I don't feel confident about the outcome.

    LEAK ALERT!

    That news wasn't supposed to be announced without the corner flag and after lookman had been sold, to Cheer up the customers!

    "To make the club more modern our supreme leader Katrien Miere has decreed that we shall now be known and Charlton FC! That is all" (literally)

    The more I learn, the less I feel affinity to my club.
    How on earth has she got this (presumably influential ) post? Even if they are struggling to fill them.

    Not many women occupy senior positions in football. She gets the gig without question in order to meet their quota

    I would surmise from the four vacancies that no one wants it. She, on the other hand, will see it as another networking opportunity for her career and line for her CV. On the plus side, she'll be bored senseless.

    We need @Weegie Addick on the case to throw a spanner in the works, meet fire with fire.

    What about Pinocchio's outrageous comparison of our fans actions to the racist chanting of years gone by when we were prime movers in the Kick it Out campaign.

    Really? Have you not seen some of the people they have appointed in the past?
  • Given she's involved I assume this sub-group is the FA's equivalent of CAFC's fans forum. Irrelevant, but with 'bragging rights' for the hosts and participants.

    Ummm. Myself and a Trust colleague put together a letter of complaint to the FA on that very subject weeks ago. We have not received a reply. Maybe they treated it as a reference for her?

    I reckon they've put her in the Comms sub group and as we know how good she is at corresponding with people, that'll be the end of that then :angry: .
