Two questions to anyone that honestly is anti Roly but also anti protests.
1.If we all turned up every week and did not protest but watched the football, do you think Roland would be more or less likely you ensure we are run properly?
2. If you are as you state anti Roland then you should want him out, if the boycotted returned and nobody acted up, in your opinion would he more or less likely to sell?
1 less likely 2 less likely I'm anti roland, anti card.

So what is your solution?
Still waiting for your suggestions clb74?
Evening Algarveaddick sorry for the late reply, I answered cfgs question and replied anti roland and anti card. Been thinking the last couple of days and looking at post on CL and regarding the anti card I will admit half of the anti card probably has nothing to do with the top dogs. For me over the months Ive come on CL asked a few questions about card and seen posts from people who are anti card/ anti protest, most have taken unfair beatings. I've blamed card for the beatings but when looking back i should think 90% of posters replying back are not the main members of card , just card followers. In reply to Davo55 who was saying yesterday well if card were to Jack it in what happens next. Probably not a lot, if I were to run the show probably get myself into trouble and that's me out the game. I don't think roland would sell if there were no protests or everyone behaved themselves , will roland sell though if no one attends the games. Is roland digging his heels in even more because of the protests, will he go if we get 3 games abandoned next year answers on a postcard Please. I know every now and again not much I forget for a second we are all Charlton supporters.
So is it that you are in favour of RD or just that the protestors - or some of them - get up your nose?
Personally can't see the point in the protests. Totally non benifcial to the club or players. Seen a lot worse ownership of the club and I wouldn't wish for something that you don't know, all that is being drip fed hasn't come off, and if there are new owners would they be any better? Would they invest in players? Let's face it the aussies were struggling to raise 20 million so I wouldn't be comfortable if they did take that they had the funds to buy players
Fair enough, but does that mean you just don't see the problem that people are up in arms about, or that you don't like or agree with the way people are going about it? Or is it the people themselves?
I'm just trying to understand a different mindset to my own as all this is quite literally tearing our club apart. And surely nobody wants that?
There are clubs in this country far worse off than us. As stated earlier no one wants to back down and if anything it is doing more harm than good.
That's true about some clubs being in a worse position than us. But I'm more concerned about us, and we are in a right old mess. And as far as I can see it was a preventable mess and it is getting steadily worse year on year, not better.
RD's ownership to date has been a disaster, by any standard you can try to measure it. Whether it would be better under anyone else is debatable, but surely we can at least agree on that?
The season Powell took over we had a worse run and the football was awful, financially on our knees, a pitch that was like a marsh, however we won't mention that
I'm talking about now though. Powell was years ago. How do you feel it has been going now?
Two and half years ago, Powell was named Sir, why I don't know, but the reality is he didn't do a better job when he first come in and the club was in a far worst state
Only 3 pages in and this comment shows you're a fool.
Powell came in and took a league 1 Charlton to the championship.
Then Roland came in and took a championship Charlton to league 1...
Then why say you don't give up?? If you got something to say with relevance then say it but you don't make sense. Another Johnny come lately that has never seen the 70's and 80's with a proper shit team, derelict ground not a pot to piss in
Your posts make me laugh littleboy, you really are deluded. I saw the shit teams in the 70's and 80's but at least then the club had a connection with the fans. Players then cared about the club. The club has had its soul ripped out by the owners, this is by far the worse era the club has experienced in the 50 odd years that I've been a supporter. For me, its now much worse than the Selhurst years.
Ain't it time we become United as fans to support the team next season and get behind the boys. There are no winners or loosers in all this expect the team. Get behind the team and management for next season before it becomes to late
You don't give up do you? I'll give you that.
@WhenIwasLittleBoy don't just send me weird private messages my friend. Share them with everyone. Otherwise you come across as a bit odd.
Don't worry. He's sent me some weird inboxes too. Wanted to fight me outside the lib!

I've just noticed that I've been flagged for my full stop. I'm really sorry that my full stop was aggressive / rude / racist / homophobic ????

Well said clb, and we got on fine in the pub after the Wimbledon game if I recall correctly that it was you, so perhaps not even CARD people are all that bad.
To me, the worst crime is pretending nothing's amiss. Even the most ardent of Roland supporters must look at things objectively and see things have hardly got better. At least the CEO has been managing to keep her feelings about the fans to herself in recent times, if only on instruction.
I am in absolutely no doubt that the quickest way to get RD to sell up is by the current team attaining promotion back to the Championship (either automatically or via the playoffs).
Like the rest of you I badly want that to happen THIS SEASON. With the quality of the players we now have at our disposal (plus the possible addition of Reeves and Martin into the mix) combined with what I see as an extremely mediocre league now is the time to cast aside your gripes with the current regime and return to the Valley to support the boys 100%.
By returning to the Valley and relinquishing any existing boycotts you are not only going to give a massive boost to the current set of players you are also potentially quickening RD's exit which, at the end of the day, is what we all want (well..2% of us at least). ;-)
I simply cannot face another year of RD and Div 1 football and it pains me that I am not in a position to support the boys at our spiritual home.
It's time to stop the boycott and put all our collective energies into a return to the Championship don't you think?

Because he's had enough of Charlton and promotion back to the Championship represents his best chance of clawing back some of his considerable losses. It's common knowledge that he is open to bidders even if his price is way OTT currently.

If they're crazy enough , they'll pay the price regardless of division... the problem has and always will be that the asking price is ridiculous no matter what league we are in.
Personally I will still be boycotting, mainly as I don't seem to get any pleasure out of going to games anymore but also because I feel that it is the best thing to do in order to do my part to remove the owner (no matter how small!)... of course that'll change with new ownership , but new ownership isn't garunteed with promotion - I fear it will only prolong the current regime as KM & RD's appetite will be wetted especially when they see it as 'beating' those who oppose them!

I respect your decision to continue the boycott but can I please ask why you think it will make the slightest bit of difference to an absent owner reportedly worth £500 million+ who has time and time again displayed a total lack of apathy towards Charlton fans like us? Isn't it better just to get behind the boys and forget about the cantankerous old c*nt running the club?

Fair enough. I hope you find pleasure in watching Charlton again some day. It's sad that we are losing so many fans.
I'm a boycotter of two years now, but had an interesting moment yesterday. My 17 year old, who lost interest after Roland sacked Powell and hasn't been back apart from the Middlesbrough protest game, suddenly said, or of the blue, 'Can we go to some Tuesday night games this season?' I have such happy memories of going to Charlton with her that I don't think I will be able to say no, and the fact that it turns out we've got the best team since Brazil 1970 only further weakens my resolve.

I agree with you that it is practically impossible to 2nd guess RD but at what point are we forced to give the regime some slack? For example how would we all feel if the team comfortably achieved promotion back to the Championship this year and followed up with a top half finish in 2018/19 whilst retaining KR and the core of the current team? Would KM be entitled to blow her own trombone then? (oer missus!).
Just playing devils advocate here. I DO NOT support the regime.

In many ways this is a stupid thread because people will do what they want. However I will still make a couple of points. Firstly, in my experience, those who protest the lowest also support the team the loudest. Secondly a kid is more likely to become a long term Charlton supporter by coming and going through some pain with some occasional highlights than if he went to watch Gillingham or became a Manure or Chelski TV supporter. So bring the kids we will need them long after Roland has gone. As for me I will support CARD whenever possible and am awaiting the next Belgium trip as I missed the last one due to heart surgery.
Like you, @flyingkiwiDK, I do not live locally to the Valley so don't get to that many matches.
For that reason as much as anything, I would not think it appropriate to tell others whether to boycott or attend.
If by your post you are insinuating that I am trying to tell others what they should do you are mistaken as I wouldn't dream of doing that. I am just sharing my opinion (which is the whole point of a message forum unless I'm mistaken).
I am entitled to that regardless of whether I am in the UK or not.
After yesterday my 9 year old now thinks we are going to win the league so we will be back next week with hope, optimism, 2 new kits purchased and probably 2-0 down after 20 minutes singing we want Roland out...
Comments
Been thinking the last couple of days and looking at post on CL and regarding the anti card I will admit half of the anti card probably has nothing to do with the top dogs.
For me over the months Ive come on CL asked a few questions about card and seen posts from people who are anti card/ anti protest, most have taken unfair beatings.
I've blamed card for the beatings but when looking back i should think 90% of posters replying back are not the main members of card , just card followers.
In reply to Davo55 who was saying yesterday well if card were to Jack it in what happens next.
Probably not a lot, if I were to run the show probably get myself into trouble and that's me out the game.
I don't think roland would sell if there were no protests or everyone behaved themselves , will roland sell though if no one attends the games.
Is roland digging his heels in even more because of the protests, will he go if we get 3 games abandoned next year answers on a postcard Please.
I know every now and again not much I forget for a second we are all Charlton supporters.
Powell came in and took a league 1 Charlton to the championship.
Then Roland came in and took a championship Charlton to league 1...
For me, its now much worse than the Selhurst years.
That's hope obv to WIWLB by the way...;-)

By returning to the Valley and relinquishing any existing boycotts you are not only going to give a massive boost to the current set of players you are also potentially quickening RD's exit which, at the end of the day, is what we all want (well..2% of us at least). ;-)
I simply cannot face another year of RD and Div 1 football and it pains me that I am not in a position to support the boys at our spiritual home.
It's time to stop the boycott and put all our collective energies into a return to the Championship don't you think?

I don't understand why.
Personally I will still be boycotting, mainly as I don't seem to get any pleasure out of going to games anymore but also because I feel that it is the best thing to do in order to do my part to remove the owner (no matter how small!)... of course that'll change with new ownership , but new ownership isn't garunteed with promotion - I fear it will only prolong the current regime as KM & RD's appetite will be wetted especially when they see it as 'beating' those who oppose them!
I have such happy memories of going to Charlton with her that I don't think I will be able to say no, and the fact that it turns out we've got the best team since Brazil 1970 only further weakens my resolve.
Just playing devils advocate here. I DO NOT support the regime.
She's blown her own trumpet for far too long.
However I will still make a couple of points.
Firstly, in my experience, those who protest the lowest also support the team the loudest.
Secondly a kid is more likely to become a long term Charlton supporter by coming and going through some pain with some occasional highlights than if he went to watch Gillingham or became a Manure or Chelski TV supporter. So bring the kids we will need them long after Roland has gone.
As for me I will support CARD whenever possible and am awaiting the next Belgium trip as I missed the last one due to heart surgery.
For that reason as much as anything, I would not think it appropriate to tell others whether to boycott or attend.
I am entitled to that regardless of whether I am in the UK or not.
Sounds rather like telling others what to do to me but apologies if I have misunderstood.
