It's also quite Donald trump "tweet" weird like for an experienced and comfortable 70 something year old to do. It's mainly also just rather insecure and irrational behaviour.
Roland, Mate....if you can't handle owning a business like this, then you should 100% just point the finger at yourself and openly admit to making the mistake.
Your ownership of Charlton Athletic has been an insanely huge error of judgement.

Sod off and get a life.
Actually, he has said the biggest mistake of his life was buying Charlton Athletic. That said, it doesn’t in the meantime excuse him from asking such an absurdly unrealistic price for the club, that it has continued to torture us (the fans), to death.
I'm sure part of his argument is that he is trying to sell the club so what is the point? The point is that he wants much more than he paid for it despite significantly devaluing it in virtually every aspect.

If it was that much of a mistake, as he admits....then he should be more motivated to cut all his losses and sell us sooner.
It's also not our fault that his communication levels are appalling. Whether or not he was English, it would still be the same. I'm not just saying that because he lives in Belgium and he has an accent.
He can't sell us...and the reason is simple and actually quite directly one worded and very honest.
Duchatelet has given one media interview in England since the Powell press conference in 2014. If he believes he has a communications problem he might want to consider whether he is it.

The story of Mel Baroni sums him up in terms of his attitude to communicating with fans!
Changing the subject a little. I'm wondering why I can't sell my old car. I bought it for £5k a few years ago. I have only crashed it a few times and don't want to pay to repair the damage - it still runs - sort of. I have spent a lot of money on petrol over those years and only want £10k for it now. I have installed a new exhaust, but not connected it to the engine yet! What am I doing wrong?
CARD WELCOMES OWNER’S REQUEST FOR WIDER EFL LOOK AT CHARLTON
The Coalition Against Roland Duchâtelet (CARD) welcomes the proposal in a statement issued by the owner of Charlton Athletic today that the EFL should carry out a more thorough investigation into the recent running and proposed sale of the club.
The Charlton Athletic Supporters’ Trust, which is part of CARD, is already due to meet the EFL on October 17th. However, all elements of the coalition are keen to assist the EFL in any investigation relating to its wider activities and the club’s current operations.
In respect of communications, we believe the EFL would need to interview a number of national, London and local journalists in order to gain an understanding of recent stories about the club, a number of which have necessarily been sourced from – and indeed been attributed to – Duchâtelet’s own current employees, rather than supporters’ groups.
We invite the EFL to consider the qualifications and experience of people Duchâtelet has employed in senior positions at the club since 2014, as well as the current lack of executive management at The Valley, and the contribution that has made to Charlton’s predicament, alongside the activities of supporters over that period.
In particular we would like the EFL to carry out an independent audit of the staff bonus issue, but only on the basis that the owner agrees to be bound by the outcome.
We further invite the EFL to consider and disclose whether the club’s own repeated statements to staff and supporters in respect of the EFL’s position as the obstacle to the proposed takeover are a truthful and complete explanation of the hold-up or whether they are materially misleading.
The club wants the EFL to consider whether “cost efficiencies” reported by the media or the protests - of which there has been one at a match in 2018 - are “helping the sale of the club”. Any meaningful examination of these points would surely also need to consider whether Duchâtelet’s asking price is actually the major reason the club has not been sold.
CARD believes the EFL could perform a useful service to all concerned by investigating all these matters thoroughly and pledges its full cooperation. We have nothing to hide.
However, this must be on the basis that any such examination is independent, balanced and that the outcome will be published – even if it directly undermines this latest bizarre attempt by the owner to deflect responsibility from his own serially incompetent administration of the club.

Roland Duchatelet
Is
shit
We'd have new owners if they hadn't thrown crisps on the pitch several months after the club announced Roland was looking to sell.
They're all strange down that way
He's got a good poll on at the moment. Go, on, it would be rude not to vote : - )
He/She is only doing it for some attention, there's an awful lot of claptrap on there, that has been posted just to wind people up.
Perhaps he should realise that this is how polls work ... everyone gets to vote.
Never mind ... we are only 2% of the fan base.
We have also asked the EFL to consider:
Are the protests helping the sale of the club?
Latest Ans: of course they aren't helping, you are trying to sell de cloob to a bloke that is as much of a tosser as you.
