Does anyone at Charlton take this lot seriously ?
quotes like "When we did score unfortunately he took his shirt off which delivered a rather unpleasant smell" just typifies the opionions of our older support.
In the link, people seem to be writing about 'morons' who are affecting their enjoyment of going to an away game. Now i went to Bristol and when you get 500 odd people travelling all that way, and then sit there not even bothering to join in when the songs are sung, well of course that is going to annoy a few people. So to suggest officials from Charlton should root out the people who are trying to get the atmosphere going at away games is farsicle.
Now i'm not saying they don't support the club 100%. But wouldn't it be nice to have the majority of the away crowd joining in with the songs?
What does everyone else think?

hahahahahaha. Marvellous.
I dunno, I've been embarrassed by fans a few times, but it's a bloody football match. It happens. If you want to go for a civilised night out where everyone does as they're told, go for a night at the theatre instead, for heaven's sake.
"My daughter who has been to the home games with me has asked what the deal is with the massive flag that gets passed over the lower north, and to my shame I cant answer her!
So if anyone will look kindly on me and give me an answer I would be very appreciative!"
Where do we find these people?
Going to a football game is one of the last bastions of going somewhere to let off steam, chant, shout and go bananas for the love of a cause. They would prefer piped crowd cheering on the PA system, and have a rule where anyone who breaks the silence is not allowed a jaffa cake at half time.
Having an atmosphere from your supporters in which a team gets confidence and belief from doesn't come with being quiet and boring.
What riles me is that these guys are suggesting to get the club to get undercover staff into away games to police us from within !?!?!? fking idiots.
Nice hint of smugness...
ive actually been put off going to away games because of this large element of moaners. Is footie away not all about the singing, the banter and the DAY OUT, or have i issed a trick somewhere???
Still i suppose, we just have to get on with it, roll on Preston...
COME ON YOU REDS!
surprises me, even the kid's mates were taking issue, why not him?
At Bristol it was unreserved seating. A couple of hundred were standing in the middle, at the back. We were sitting about twelve rows back in the seats furthest to the left, sparsely populated. Why, if someone wants to stand, come and do so in front of us ? The logical choice would be to stand with the couple of hundred already standing. If not then surely you have to expect that others will ask you to sit. Seems fair.
If you want to stand then ask for a ticket at the back and if the Club solely allocated these specifically to those who ask for a ticket at the back we could end up actually allocating these tickets to the right fans without the Club being compliant in promoting unlawful standing at matches.
If you sing every game or don't it makes you no less of a Charlton supporter in my opinion. If you have travelled 300 miles midweek to watch a game then you show that you care about the club.
2000 tickets, we had 700 there, the 200 that want to stand can do so at the back, simple.
Not enjoying away games this season, Palace and Blackpool will be the only decent atmospheres, FACT.
It sounds like the scum who spoke to Large's Dad are only one grade above the Palace scum who attacked the families on the train. Disgraceful behaviour when they could easily have stood with the others if that was what they wanted to do.
I don't think I want to put myself or my daughter in the position of potentially getting involved in a confrontation.
Old and placid as I am those sort of bullies get my dander up and I won't back down so best not to go.
Just say yes to Right guard.
problem is Len every team has a few so called supporters who cause trouble. We are not excluded from this. Thankfully our 'few' are very few indeed compared to others. I was happy at Bristol to see a couple of younger supporters also berate this 'fans' behaviour. He overstepped the mark.
If people want to go to a game and not sing, let them get on with it. Not my idea of fun but each to their own. As long as they aren't whinging about the one's that do want to sing what's the problem?
a player will maybe just about make out singing his name or chanting for the team when he makes a crunching tackle or does well to win a set-piece but he'll sure as hell hear the groans when he misplaces a pass
