    Ain't it time we become United as fans to support the team next season and get behind the boys. There are no winners or loosers in all this expect the team.
    Get behind the team and management for next season before it becomes to late

    You don't give up do you? I'll give you that.
    @WhenIwasLittleBoy don't just send me weird private messages my friend. Share them with everyone. Otherwise you come across as a bit odd.
    Don't worry. He's sent me some weird inboxes too. Wanted to fight me outside the lib!
    After giving it Charlie big potatoes and melted...Let's get that out there
    I'll happily post the full conversation screenshots on here if you think thays the case. I suggested you were a WUM and a troll I also suggested you might be Colin reincarnated. You aren't Colin so I apologised for that. You then went on to prove your WUM/Troll status by threatening me!
  • Supported the club all my life and will continue to do so. The fact that you compare the club to North Korea sums you up
  • Then why say you don't give up?? If you got something to say with relevance then say it but you don't make sense. Another Johnny come lately that has never seen the 70's and 80's with a proper shit team, derelict ground not a pot to piss in

    Well you clearly know nothing about me and I don't want to know anything more about you. I know enough already.

    Supporting Charlton ain't all about who has the biggest cock or who has followed for more years.

    I will take the guidance of jimmy85 and not bother with any more of your 'contributions '.

    @WhenIwasLittleBoy do you genuinely think that Roland is good for the longevity of Charlton Athletic? Or is it that you just want to turn up on a Saturday and watch a game of football, but don't care about the continuing decline down the football pyramid among a multitude of other questionable off field decisions? Or something else I haven't covered?

    I'm curious.

    Edit: it might come across snarky given the tone of this thread overall but I really would like to know.

    Wum's don't usually reply to intelligent debate. I wait with bated breath to see this particular WUM's response.

    The support for the team is actually much stronger on the days when the protestors are out in force.

    The whole "just support the team" crowd tend to spend a lot of the time sat in silence not really supporting anything from what I've seen at most home games this year.

    The two aren't mutually exclusive at all. If you care about the club then I can't understand why anyone would happily sit back and let it be run into the ground the way that it is.

    Dean, as we said when we had a chat in the Lib we're all fans, we all want the team to win and the club to do well.

    The only person who doesn't care about us winning is Roland.

    Forget left wing, right wing as it's nothing to do with it.

    I've supported the club all my life too. Glad we've found some common ground.

    Given that you continue to support Roland's Charlton despite it's failures, am I right to assume that you dissociate Roland from Charlton and will continue to support whoever owns the club regardless of what decisions they make?
  • Ben you know as well I do there are people that turn out ie today to protest and not support the team. Where have they been all season. You never stop supporting the club you love regardless

    I don't think that's right though. What makes you think they didn't support the team?

    I support Charlton, the club I love. I also support holding accountable those in charge of running the club I love.

    This is a very good point. All the people sat around me (in East Stand) who didn't join in with the protest chants nor stood up when we sang "Stand up if you want them out", also did not join in on ANY pro team chants or songs. None at all. Yet they are the real supporters and us anti-regime are not?

    And you know that a new owner would be better ?

    Except these people do support the team when they are there. Yes they turn up to protest but they also support the team.

    And they aren't not supporting the team when they chose not to go. They are doing so for the good of the club. You may not agree but it's their choice...

    Presume this poorly formed sentence is supposed to read: "There are no winners or losers except the team"

    Well, yes the team do keep losing, as a result of the complete hash these fuckwits are making of running the club.

    I'm quite a 'football-centric' Charlton fan - I'm not especially interested or involved in community stuff or trust membership etc. I just want someone to run the football team properly. To ensure we have the right coaches, staff, infrastructure and players to at least try to win each week.

    THIS OWNERSHIP HAS REPEATEDLY PROVEN THEY ARE NOT CAPABLE OF THIS.

    Yes. And on non protest games the atmosphere has been diabolical this year. Like seriously dreadful. About 4 people singing in the whole ground half the time.

    I honestly don't think it can get much worse than what we have currently. Of course, it's possible but that's a chance I'd be willing to take. Maybe that's where we differ.

    Roland won't last forever. Our next owner won't last forever, for good or bad. Our owner after that won't, either.

    It's a continual cycle and it's up to us as fans to make sure those that are in temporary charge are making decisions in the best interests of our club.
  • What did we do when the Gliksten's were running the club with their 19 year spending embargo + plans to move to Milton Keynes + plans to redevelop the ground?

    We supported the players and got behind the team.

    It's not the first (nor probably the last) time we've had a wally as owner, so I suggest we do the same now.

    As for blocking redevelopment plans: lobby the council and get any planning application refused.

    Sounds shit. Why didn't you protest?

    And you told me you'd only been to one game since Millwall. Does that mean your not a fan?

    All those people you don't like are still fans, how many games they go to or their politics doesn't alter that.

    Of course not. But in the last year we have been widely thought of as the worst run club in the country. Okay for late a few have overtaken us in the one leave Roland is good at. We'd have to be bloody unlucky to get any worse.

    And how could it be worse? An owner with no money? Well I for one could deal with that. We've been there. We're Charlton to what we do. It brings out the best in us. We rally around behind the team. Fans, board, players and club form an us against the world attitude and fight for our lives. We would buy the time yr VIP tickets bring our mates. And the club grows onto the back of the hard work of volunteers staff and players that care.

    Under this lot. All of that was destroyed and they are incapable of rebuilding any of it.
