Thank you CAST. Thank you CARD. Thank you everyone doing their bit by publicising things on social media and in the press (even if it is The Sun! Hopefully others will follow.)
I want Roland and the EFL and anyone else in a position to influence those responsible for this crazy situation to feel they are under constant attack from all sides.
Could this be the Addicks own "100 days" battle leading to a take-over before the next transfer window? I have a very real fear that the nightmare of relegation to League 2 will become a reality next season if we are not taken over before the end of 2018.
“The club looked at the spend on plastic water bottles as part of a current cost analysis process.
“The decision was made that given the high wastage and the environmental impact of plastic bottles the club would be better served providing water in other ways. “The club provides fresh water at the training ground, the first team have individual refillable bottles and the U23s and U18s are also provided with refillable bottles.
“The solution has saved costs, reduced wastage and has environmental benefits.
“This is not the only way the club are saving money by becoming more environmentally friendly. In June, the club’s electricity consumption was cut by 11% and in July by 29%.
“The water sent to the training ground won’t be wasted and the plastic bottles the water came in will be recycled.”
So we now finally understand what Duchatalet's plan for the giant trench at the training ground was for, it all makes sense...
what's wrong with youth players filling up water bottles from a tap?
I agree that not providing them with breakfast is not just shitty but counter productive when you are trying to get these guys to eat healthily but filling up water bottles for themselves and the senior squad is no different to cleaning the senior players boots.
no wonder most of the little fuckers think they have made it
surely refillable bottles are a lot better for the environment? of course this isn't why crusty is doing it, but less plastic the better?
Surely any screw-top bottle is refillable?
i would put my house on the plastic bottles as above are not reused a insulated water bottle is far better, anyway this isnt about water and plastic just a side note.
Yeah but insulated refillable bottles are about 20 x more expensive!
Given only 100 bottles were purchased by CARD, can we assume they didn't have that kind of money to hand?
Hopefully this is the first in a series of ingenious, ever higher profile, actions this week, leading up to the headline newsworthy event at the match on Saturday...

It's risking them getting "tapped" up by clubs that do fill up their bottles for them.
Joking aside I do agree with your point and the club statement plays a blinder by bringing in the save the environment angle. Hopefully the message will get through though about what is going on at the club in the wider sense and get that back in the media agenda and if it does it's served its purpose.

VERY well done to all involved.
A perfect move.
PS
I'm glad you resisted the temptation to take all the caps off the bottles.
One day - hopefully soon - we’ll be rid of this abominable man.
Thank you CARD.

Still this is undeniably more good than Roland is doing and just reminds you how much of a cunt he is.

Just got to continue publicising this any way we can.
They did have a discussion about foreign owners and mentioned
