Eh? Roland’s pretty much confirmed it himself in that staff email!NorthStandUltra said:Hmmm

I wonder if Roland will do the decent thing and pay these bonuses once he gets the expected sell on fee (i believe there is one?) if/when Lookman goes to Leipzig.............0

Reading the staff statement is heartbreaking - especially that they put in the extra hours for love of not only the club but also us, the supporters.
We have to back them up now in any way we can.7 -

I have a horrid feeling that a strike would cause us to forfeit the game. Hope I am wrong.bristoladdick said:Staff strike on Saturday? Gets the match postponed, more embarrassment for Roland and helps Lee Bowyer, as a few players will be back from injury for the re-arranged fixture.
As we will probably finish mid table it will make no difference0 -
On BBC London news, at 6:30 this evening.2

Don’t be silly - Airman confirmed we’re talking circa £50K here in total, Roland probably makes that in interest every few days. If he was going to pay the bonuses he would have paid the bonuses.Chris_from_Sidcup said:I wonder if Roland will do the decent thing and pay these bonuses once he gets the expected sell on fee (i believe there is one?) if/when Lookman goes to Leipzig.............

So the club waited until two / three weeks after the payment was due before telling staff they wouldn't get the bonuses! Not only is Duche out of order for not paying staff but also for the prolonged delay in passing on the decision. I'm guessing the decision was made some time ago.6

I would think that the staff have a good case for breach of contact .. BUT of course, all depends on the wording of the contract(S) or agreement(S) .. ( posted on another topic)0 -
Don't forget he trousered the £11million for Lookman already. He is a grad A tosser. I had the regime. I bought a season ticket as I thought the club would be sold and was misled. I moaned about my season ticket not coming (I boycotted for 3yrs) and then this. I have no gripe with the staff at the Valley or their contractors Delaware. Whenever I have spoken to them over the phone or in person they have been FANTASTIC, FRIENDLY and EFFICIENT. They have always provided EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE despite that twat running the club. I hate him.3

Stopping bonuses to admin staff isn’t going to make any difference to ongoing costs for any incoming new owners. They are Roland’s responsibility and relate to the year gone.
Not replacing admin staff isn’t going to make a huge difference to those costs either. See it all the time in business. The bosses lay off the lower level staff and pat themselves on the back, when getting rid of just one of them would probably save as much as 10, 20, 30 admin staff! In the case of football, how many gold-plated contracts did Daisy hand out? How much compensation was paid for every useless manager he foisted on the club after Chris Powell?
It’s one massive failure and only one person owns it!

Putting aside the Charlton angle, it’s a multi millionaire businessman not paying his hardworking staff their bonuses, as the company lost money due to his mismanagement/piss poor decisions.
Fucking wanker.48 -
Also pleased to see a clip of my interview shown too.
"Definitely should have gone a long time ago, he's just no good for the club."8 -

In light of his article, knowing that any revenue to the club goes straight to Roland and that people working day and night for the club are not being paid... I am starting to feel that anyone who gives ANY money to this club for anything might be committing a kind of club "sleeping with the enemy?" In my opinion the only reasonable response is total and complete resistance, non-support and non-cooperation.3

I would never want other fans, who travel that far, to suffer. Maybe put an event on at a local pub, free food and a band for them, build some good will.cabbles said:seeing a lot of tweets mentioning a strike. I for one would support it as it would be more effective and hard hitting than fans boycotting and more likely to create a bigger impact. Would have to be announced asap to save the Fleetwood fans travelling down. Not sure what people's thoughts are but if there are enough brave individuals in that group that have been dicked over, and would walk out, they would have my total respect and admiration.
Mindful though that this whole thing is more about them as employees than us as fans and our thing with Roland.1 - Sponsored links:

has Anyone sent the staff statement to pearks?
That women just can’t help herself. I understand she can’t say anything negative I get that but the fact she would know this to be true but still try and use it to smear others is disgusting.
I bet if it was her husband she would see things differently.

If I were an employee of Charlton Athletic, right now, I wouldn’t be working anything other than my contracted hours. If I’m paid for 37.5 hours per week, then that’s what I’d be working. Wouldn’t do another minute unless I was paid overtime. What are they going to do, sack all of the staff for working contracted hours ...11

Take a full hour for lunch and you never used to be allowed to work for more than four hours without break under the offices, shops & premises act? So again take them.Manicmania said:

1) The goodwill (misguided) of employees
2) The fucking odious pricks that push people to do stuff like this make employees feel so frightened they inevitably won't do it5
