Roland I have backed you up ever since you walked through the door and took a lot of stick for it.

I backed the sacking of Powell (although it was heart breaking)
I backed those terrible signings you made and defended their credentials even though I knew deep down they was not good enough.
I backed Riga
I backed peeters
I backed this network idea
I'm sure this is the same for many other Cafc fans.

But now safely I need to snap out of it Roland I'm thankful for the new pitch, I'm thankful for the new training ground plans and the investment you are making but this is all at the expense of loving my club.

I used to love the feeling of getting down to the valley but all that's going on i have never felt so disconnected from my club.

The sackings of Peeters backs this a up, my love for this club will never die but it's a mess at the moment.

We used to be a role Model of a club but in the space for 18 months we are now looking for our 4 manager.

Get Riga back now Roland just so this seems bare able, not on a contract till the end of the season, give him a 3 year deal and bring this club some stability !!!!

If Guy Luzon walks through that door the guy you seemed not good enough for Standard then that will be my breaking point with you but again.. Stupidly I'll back you cause I love this club

But....


Roland I respect you are a respected businessman but a key thing for all good business men is adaptability , you need to change your methods as this will not work In the championship or England

Please sort it

I got stick for saying when powell was close to the door that this prick would ruin us and I hate to say it but I think it's I told you so I really hoped I was wrong

How has ruined us - by leaving us midtable in the Championship with every possibility of safely staying away from L1? By buying Tony Watt? TBH? Bikey? Vetokele? We haven't been in the Prem for 7 years.

I think that was a brilliant post!


To be mid table half way through the season with the squad we have is very good achievement IMO!

I am gutted this evening! I am never gonna stop supporting charlton but sometimes i wish I could just switch off!

We are becoming a bit of a joke! If will be 4 managers in 12 months

Will be interesting to hear how long the contract is of the next guy coming in is for, 6 months, 12 months or 3 years, it will say a lot about highly thought of they are, and what direction the club is going in.

As it stands he wouldn't get 25 quid

So we'll just accept being 14th in the championship sacking managers and no stability

I'm wide awake mate, do you really think players like vetokele is ours ? There Rolands if someone wanted them Roland will let them have them

Yes mate, sorry - bit rude there.

However we do know lots and lots of struggling second division / third division clubs with falling attendances staggering from one financial f*** up to another leaving a trail of bad debts and damaged community relations. For every Southampton there are lots of Plymouths and Portsmouths.

I am honestly pleased Peeters is gone. It was clear we had started to fumble around with no direction on the pitch. And worse than that, his style of play was breeding indifference in stands over bad results.

I respect your opinion .. But in this current set up would Fergie or Mourinho do any better?

Of course they would, their records stand for themselves.

Yeh. come back Jimenez and Slater, and take up where you left off. Those were the good old days. Blinding squad we'd have now.

I still love you Rolly

Lots of knee jerk reactionary words & declarations of the final nail in the Charlton coffin from some Lifers on here tonight.

Don't want to say too much as I'm feeling a bit Mary Poppins myself & am concerned about what the immediate future will bring for us.

But I sincerely hope that, in the cold light of day, most Lifers will moderate their first thoughts on hearing tonight's news.

I dislike change. But this surely isn't change for change's sake.

There were no guarantees that Bob would guide us to safety by May ...and likewise, there is no guarantee that the next man will be our Messiah. He could be just a naughty boy..:-) but he could be someone that the current honest lads in the squad will be able to relate to and play for. It's a gamble but probably a necessary one if the rumours we heard are true. If I can look into JJ's face tomorrow and see relief , then that's good enough for me.

Whatever your feelings at this moment in time, please sleep on it. Wait & see who is announced as our new gaffer , hopefully tomorrow. Wait to see how the players respond next Saturday and beyond. That will tell its own story IMO. But, don't expect miracles or overnight success...this is Charlton after all.

Above all, whatever the future holds, we mustn't lose sight of the fact that this is OUR Club - no-one will take that away from us. It's OUR voices that are heard by the players week after week and it's us, keeping our feet firmly on the ground that are the one stable factor. Players, managers, owners, tea ladies come & go but we stay. Without us there will be no Charlton Athletic.

So, gird those loins, man/woman up and endeavour to view this current change as a reason to be optimistic and look to the future NOT the past. The latter we cannot change ; the former we have the opportunity to influence. We've been knocked down before but we've fought to scramble back to our feet. Together we are strong. The alternative is not worth thinking about.

Believe and keep the faith.
