    After reading her latest rant, I'd say if you can't take the heat, stop pouring petrol on the fire.

    “To make me resign as a director at company’s house [fraudulently removed as a director]. They were making fun of it on an online forum."

    Why is she so massively bothered by it? I thought it was a funny joke but not something to keep going on and on about!

    It was their flawed security that allowed it in the first place.

    It's the only valid issue she has to throw at us ...personally I think it was brilliant.

    Good opportunity for a statement from @CARD?

    why they had nothing to do with the two protests mentioned?
    Sigh. It's nothing to do with that and who's done what. Stop trying to get attention.

    It's to do with the fact that they have come to represent the Charlton fans protesting against Roland and so they will be a credible voice to issue a well worded statement, and in turn make it more likely to get picked up by the press. Surely, if you are protesting for the same reasons this wouldn't bother you?

    If you want attention, feel free to issue a statement yourself. Let's see how far that goes.

    Now, back to laughing at Katrien.
    No statement is needed - the protest was a big enough Statement!

    The next protest we do will be an even bigger Statement!

    We dont care what Katrien Says!
    Well please get off this thread then & stop trying to derail it, in order to big yourself up again.

    How did that speech help to promote the image of the Club she is supposed to portray in a positive light in the media? Someone... anyone?

    @LuckyReds mate, I genuinely would take anything she says with a pinch of salt

    She is running on empty. The football world knows she is a joke and it must be obvious to even the thickest twat that she should spend a tad less time slagging off decent supporters and trawling forums and get on with doing what she does best- which at the moment remains a mystery to many.

    I think she is possibly, currently the worst CEO of any and every business today at least within western civilization.

    Why is it so important to keep this job aside from obviously, having an income. The problem is that she's now unemployable unless Roland shifts her...but he maybe starting to think she's also useless...but can't sack her from this position because he wants to see a Charlton fan perform criminal activity in order to attempt to get her to resign.

    I just sent it to a guy at work who came back with 'wow, reads like the start of a breakdown.'

    Katrien, do yourself a favour. Shhhhh. You are making yourself look even more ridiculous. It really is time to stop digging.

    Duchatelet and Murray really need to look in the mirror.

    She is an incompetent, arrogant cow with no respect whatsoever for OUR heritage but her fellow directors surely owe a duty of care to protect her from herself.

    Because the other two are such a gutless pair of old cowards she has taken most of the flak and deserved most of it too but it's time they came out of the woodwork.

    If everything has turned out terribly via the players and management...it would still be wise not to lose your dignity in the process...that is now something you cannot retrieve. She is an angry wound up old fool that can't and won't work under pressure.

    Funny how in this speech she uses the words sh*t and sh**ty but also has a go at language the fans use when attending a football match. The fans are free to swear as much as they like because it is their free time and they are not at work. It depends whether or not your kids are with you, but that is still a choice.

    However Meire thinks it's perfectly acceptable to swear in a professional environment where her comments will be published.

    HUH.

    Good thing we have the transcript because it won't be long before Mandy says her boss was misinterpretated

    A CEO takes the glory when it's going well.....and the shit when it's going bad.

    I've no sympathy for her.

    Surely all of her prestigious industry awards and accreditations would secure her a role somewhere more aligned to her skill set.

    She isn't an idiot. She should just admit defeat and leave.

    Wonder how that cleaning up of her image on Google is coming along?
  • For the record I am a mum who won't be renewing my and my two kids' season tickets* but it has fuck all to do with the language they hear.

    (*whilst under this regime)

    Brilliant.

    My wife has actually just asked me what I am laughing out loud at!

    I love how she simply disregards the bad recruitment of players and management at the club like it's an everyday problem at every club. "It happens" - it's your job to make sure it doesn't happen, otherwise you go down with the ship.

    Refusing to accept responsibility in every single way.

    It's the "sorry" that never actually means she is sorry, but more like

    "I've acknowledged that we didn't do well this season for 1 second so we can't ever talk about it again, as I've already acknowledged it, that it didn't go well and we made a few mistakes. It's now officially yesterday's news".

    Twat

    exactly "it happens" - yes, to extremely poorly run football clubs

    Was the statement made to a reporter or did she blurt it out to a wider audience? Is there any confirmation/video evidence?

    “Just like when I started supporting football 15 years ago. Whenever there was a black player they would make noises. That has evolved, why can we not also educate fans towards respect of everybody in the game?

    Comparing the reminders that she is getting for doing her CEO job consistently badly to the racism that black players had to suffer is just a bit of an insult to the pernicious and nasty racism that the black players suffered in the UK in the mid 1970s.

    It is also an insult to Charlton supporters who overwhelmingly are against racism and part of the kick it out campaign. If she is talking 15 years ago is she talking about how things were in Belgium ? Or the rest of the continent ?

    Drawing parallels between her situation and the situation of black players is both, idiotic, insulting, and ridiculous at the same time. Meire completely misunderstands Charlton's history against racism.

    She is spectacularly useless and her communication skills are the icing on the cake. Alienating nearly the entire fanbase of the club where you are CEO and not understanding why is quite impressive.
    What is going on inside RD's head and why he leaves her in charge is beyond me.
    Hard to believe such a scenario could exist....
