I'm indifferent but certainly not wetting my knickers about it. Sam Bartram's statue will not be weeping tears of sorrow tonight and our kids will not grow up to become feckless crack addicks because our wonderful club has come up with a somewhat racy and different marketing ploy which has garnered a wide audience.stevietwells said:

It is a bit of seaside postcard humour.

We are a family club but not everyone of us sees this sort of thing as an affront to people's morals. Pretty tacky yes but I can't recall another football marketing ploy, certainly not a Charlton one, that has garnered so much national attention as this did today.
Now people up and down the country know the pitch is available. Objective achieved.
Even suggests we are a club with a sense of humour and God forbid, perhaps even developing a bit of personality.
But then again my humour is more Paul Whitehouse than Mary Whitehouse

Well I'm anti Roland but I think it's a very clever bit of PR. Not very Charlton I'll admit, but a fantastic bit of marketing nonetheless. Impressed!10

Would be shocked that those spotty nigels, would even know what to do with a women.WSS said:Imagine what we'd be saying if Palace had done it...

That says more about the ridiculous two sided nature of football fans than anything to do with the campaign to be honest.WSS said:Imagine what we'd be saying if Palace had done it...
Well The Valley is never going to be a high calibre recreation ground is it in all honesty?stevietwells said:

It ain't the subject matter, mate, I shared it on my FB before I knew it was put out by the club. I just think it cheapens us and the way we're perceived-particularly as it seems to be successful.RodneyCharltonTrotta said:

If you can't see the difference between an off the 30 second cuff online marketing viral that will be forgotten about by next Thursday and the implementation of goal music and cheerleaders then I'm not going to be able to change your mind.4 -

Seriously I very much doubt any current or prospective Chartlon supporters are sitting there now going "Oh my goodness Gwendolin, I was going to watch the rip roaring addicks this week but having just witnessed the utter utter filth in that viral ad I do not wan't to be associated with those dirty dirty feckers down at SE7.

i knew it was a marketing campaign from the first frame. No way any security cameras at the club are high end HD with prime lenses. Just didn't think it was the club, thought it might have been some other marketing bollocks that just used the valley.suzisausage said:I think some people are put out they were had by the the club putting one over them rather than the campaign itself.

Why the ire? It's harmless fun, innovative advertising and shows up idiots at the BBC, Guardian and no doubt many more for not checking sources when reporting 'news'.3

Must confess I thought the clip looked staged.
I think it would have been good to have a voice over by Motty saying
"Excellent ball control in the middle of the park leading to a shot from inside the box...."
I love it was the club that did it!4 -
As did nicking Gillingham's fans by sending coaches to Medway and advertising on flyers to come and see Terry Henry but I don't recall people shitting a spleen over that when the going was good.stevietwells said:
