Better to just not make a signing like Lepoint in the first place.AddicksAddict said:
If you got nothing for a player, would you want to disclose that?Scoham said:Two summer transfer windows in which we didn't sign enough players, leaving us desperate for signings the following January each time.
After realising we needed more experienced players in early 2015 we only signed young players and older players lacking experience in England in summer 2015. Which other Championship club would start a season with three young centre backs with less than 10 first team appearances in English football between them? Our only other option being a defensive midfielder (admittedly a World Cup winner) in his 30s.
Christophe Lepoint - a 30 (?) year old Belgian midfielder that had never played in England, known for his work rate, lack of pace and average technical ability. In what way was he likely to be a good signing? This was a year after they took over the club. The OS also stated he left for an undisclosed fee. The FA contract registration website shows his contract was terminated.1 -
So, so many fuck-ups to choose from that it's hard to choose just one.
However, surely it must be the appointment of "Klueless Karel" - AKA The Belgian Brent - that tops the list.
Bringing a bloke from the Belgian 3rd Division - not even full-time pros - to manage in one of the toughest leagues in Europe was an extraordinary move and one which will probably relegate the club.
To choose that clown over Riga or the dozens of better qualified candidates was an absolute insult to the club.16 -
My particular favourite was when they sacked the company that handled the programme selling on behalf of the club, without realising that the point of sale trolleys belonged to the company and not Charlton. Ms Meire then had the barefaced cheek to ask if she could 'borrow' them anyway - she was promptly to to do one!19

Floyd and Harvey-gate or mascot gate, is a genuine one.. that Robin still freaks me the fuck out!LuckyReds said:Yet two more sackings... Floyd and Harvey.
Doh. That was before Bobby Peeters sacking wasn't it?
Not knocking the kid who drew it, I'm sure it wasn't intended to look quite so fucking dumbfounded.
That said, I often look confused when watching Charlton play.. So maybe it's accurate.

No such thing, the original quote is "the customer is never wrong" which basically means no matter how bloody wrong the customer is, you can't tell them "no you're wrong" but you certainly don't have to tell them they're rightdickplumb said:Whatever happened to the old saying the customer is always right?

Wow, I'd never heard that before. That's absolutely quality - she really is completely inept.Missed It said:My particular favourite was when they sacked the company that handled the programme selling on behalf of the club, without realising that the point of sale trolleys belonged to the company and not Charlton.

Having realised - at last - that the team is in danger of being relegated, the club advertises free travel to Rotherham, at very short notice.1

Surely its 'My bad gate' ?cantersaddick said:0 -
Ive still got my Charlton water bottle.. the one that was sold in the Club shop a few years back which you couldn't get water out of unless you take the lid off. and what about how we moaned about the Charlton ducks that didn't swim, the ones that only sank to the bottom of the bath.
Do you remember those terrible problems we had way back when... and god did we whinge!
You know what they say??

Although it happened before Bob was removed, you need to add the appointment of Katrien Meire as CEO and to run the Club. She arrived with absolutely no knowledge or experience of football as a game or as a business, with none of the experience or qualities required to run a multi million pound Business. This was a clear admission by Duchatalet that he would sit in Belgium and make all decisions through her inexperienced unsuitable career history and ability.
Having failed to convince the Belgians about his strange political ideas, he has come up with his ideas for running a successful football Club. After two years, and two furtive visits, this time he is again facing failure. In 70 years of watching and loving football I have never come across a situation where one man through his stupidity is killing a Club. GO CARD.2 -

Possible future debacles.
Our last three home games are against Derby, Brighton and Burnley who at the moment are in the promotion/play off mix.
Maybe our CEO is a great admirer of these clubs (like Bournemouth last season) and wants to give their fans a special day out at the Valley so again will be selling out her own supporters, sorry customers, so she can give the upper west to the away fans.
Cue another catering voucher debacle times three.3 -
