This is good and something that we cannot let up in our effort to save the club. We must all pull together and drive home the message that we the fans will not go lightly into the darkness without a fight.
Heartbreaking to see this type of thing again. We deserve a period of having a good owner(s) and stability. We're a great family focused club, with an amazing academy, why does it keep going wrong! AND BREATHE.
Really hopeful that everyone can pull together from this point forward.
This looks like its going to be a hard enough run ahead without infighting and divisions muddying the waters further. That is one key lesson learned from the Duchatelet era protests.
We are all Charlton and we all need to stand together.

Agree with every word of that.
I joined cast in Bartram's on the first night it was open to members and I'm still very supportive. The (cast) statement gives hope for the future and helps lift my morale, which truth be told was starting to drop.
This is pretty much the only thing that gives me hope at this point: "We have a long-standing relationship with Ashley Brown, who was instrumental in the Pompey Trust takeover of that club and who is now FSA Head of Supporter Engagement and Governance, and have once again sought his guidance and assistance in relation to developments over the past 24 hours."
I'm seriously considering becoming a member, but I do have some concerns about these plans for potential fan ownership. I appreciate it is early days, but if you could go into some more detail about this it would be greatly appreciated.
My main concern is how the structure would work, and who the people in charge would actually be.

I don’t really see how any more details could be provided at this point and, if they could, would we really want to give the strategy away before we’re ready to play our hand?

Explaining the structure of hiw it would work is hardly giving away a strategy before you are ready to play your hand.
I think it's a fair question along with who the stakeholders are
Joined for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I understand the points of concern about the trust. But this is the main vehicle for anything to be done around the company model if this is indeed possible. There is absolutely a place for CL and other fans forums, but for a fiver give 'em a chance to get something done . Christ we need it!

This is the stuff that takes a little bit of time to investigate and get up and running. We have done lots of groundwork but ultimately you only have one chance to get it right and time it right - if it becomes necessary.
Our governance and details on board members are all on www.castrust.org. I hope there's enough on there to persuade people to part with £5 for annual membership.

For the record my post wasnt meant as a criticism.
Fully understand that setting up something like this is both complex and time consuming

One small typo, 'apprising'.

Glad this is something being looked in to.
Well played CAST👌, that's exactly what I pay my £5 for 👏
