  • This added to yet another non-performance on Saturday underlines without fear of equivocation that he is a worthless, self-serving, show-pony, thief. He can give back his salary and get as far away from Charlton as quickly as his superannuated oh so fragile arctic feet can carry him.

    RD should accept any offer that will get this poisonous charlatan out of the dressing room without paying him a single cent more than absolutely necessary.
    You sound like Lady C
  • I think that is probably a better help to the players than the booing and the chants to the board.

    Don't get me wrong here, I'm not condemning the chants that are being aimed at the board, I just think they should be used before the match / at half-time and then at the end of the match...
    That's fair enough.

    Just to be clear, I would have joined in the protest in the second minute had I not been stuck on the A2 for about 45 minutes and missed it (I pretty much sprinted to the ground from Charlton Park but that was a waste of time as I got into the ground exactly as the minute ended. Sadder still, my legs still ache from it today!).

  • Fair play to the club for skipping out on that part of his interview though, it wouldn't do either sides any favours....

    Your human so those receiving the abuse and insults will get to you eventually...

    If not you then it'll probably effect your family that are sitting in the stands supporting you
    Baldybonce human? That's hit me for six I had him down as a super hero for us follicly challenged Addicks :wink:
  • We should really back the team during the game, it's not their fault why we are in a position we are in.

    By all means, protest before and after the game but not during the game!

    Whose fault is it then, the groundsman?

    I suspect that has more to do with not wanting to mention the protest at all.

    No, I would soak up the adulation and cheers when things are good and take it on the chin when things are bad.

    you know it.
  • JBG needs to know that it is possible to support the team and differentiate that from the owners. The 2percent protest is not against the team. I would also like to say to JBG that it is not very nice as a home supporter to see the team getting consistently tanked 3-0 at home on a regular basis and to be effectively run into the ground.

    Hmmm so we've won everytime the fans have got behind the team and lost everytime they've been booed off the pitch...

    Thats the second player to come out now and say the fans arent helping performances and still the fans think its bullshit, yes people on here have said that its not aimed at the players but if thats the case, protest when the match isnt in progress, there is plenty of time before and after the match to vent our views without it involving the players.

    Of course fans cant do that now because they've booed for so many years they know that if they stop that performances will pick up and it'll become completely clear that it is their fault!!.

    Yes the old saying is that we pay our money we can say what we want, but if thats the simple case, your not forced to spend your money, dont like it, dont bother!!... In addition its so simple that if a player wants a say, why dont they too just buy a season ticket!!!

    If everyone who was protesting didn't bother, there would be a bigger sea of red seats at The Valley.

    Personally, I admire the fact that they can still turn up. I don't any more and have no intention of going back to The Valley until there's a significant shift in direction from RD & Co.

    Besides, each away day is like a little adventure for me. I've never been one to go away much, but I'm enjoying the change right now.
  • JBG is missing the point. It is the mismanagement by RD and KM that is being protested about. JGB is an international footballer looking to go to the European Championships and do well. JGB is one of Charltons better players.
    What does he really think of the team mates/ squad players he knows are not good enough. What good will it do his career being managed/ coached by inexperienced, inadequate managers appointed for the owners convience.
    That's why we are unhappy JBG, it's as much for you.
  • We're working on getting in some better fans from the network in the January window.

    Hoping some of our younger fans from the local creche are going to break through into the Covered End Choir this season too before moving on to West Ham.

    FFS someone get on a plane and bring me a bloody contract. I'm not from the network and I truly care. The transfer fee will be undisclosed though

    Not bothered what he says here and don't think anyone should take it too seriously.
    He's probably frustrated by the club in general as we the fans are and hurting inside he's showing emotion at least and saying how he feels not just kissing everyone's ass. He's being honest.

    It's also comments that he may not agree with when asked on a different occasion. Don't look too deeply into this.
  • it's the quote "its Not Nice" that make me chuckle, does he think those protesting feel good about it, probably not but they like I Worry for our club. We just keep stumbling from one bad decision to another from one bad and I'll timed comment to another.

    Of course, I bet that was a fun meeting to be in
  • So how will people know which game or games to boycott?

    How will they know that such an idea exists? Or what the aims are?

    Seems a strange kind of boycott that doesn't ask people to boycott or say why?
    If there was to be an organised boycott, I believe those boycotting should consider attending an away game (and away games in general) instead. That would make it clear that those boycotting believe there is something specifically wrong at the Valley but they continue to support the team.

    I believe that was the approach of a significant part of the Brighton fanbase, meaning they had big away crowds while they were stuck at the Withdean.

    Obviously all of our away games until the end of February are up north and it's easier and closer for Brighton to go to away games up north etc etc.
  • Actually the protest can take different forms and one that doesn't affect the players should also be considered. It's not a black and white situation (excuse the pun) where protest can ONLYbe during the game. However during the game is when there is an audience; one that you wont get elsewhere.
  • Johann - it's not nice watching an Icelandic international playing like an Icelandic trawlerman either.

    Bit strong. He's not played as well as last season but is still a good player and one of the best we've had since our Premiership days. Every time he got into a potentially dangerous position on Saturday three Ipswich players crowded him out. It's up to KF to work out what we do when other teams focus on JBG which they are doing this year.

  • JBG will coast through this season, picking up his fat weekly wage, trying not to get injured for the Euros then he will be off next summer.

    Lets hope he has a good Euro championships so RD gets a decent fee!!!

    Yes he is a good player. I've been a good fan. I just don't think he's got the right to moan about our protesting when he and the team aren't playing consistently well every week.
    He's coasting.

    People were booing after conceding agaisnt Brentford because it was on the back of about two months of other games without any wins! Not to mention the fact we had also lost 0-3 at home to Preston a few days earlier.

    There is only so much supporters can take before they start showing their displeasure. Charlton fans are actually very tame in this respect. Many other clubs would have fans who would be spotted throwing season tickets at the manager or rabidly trying to get in the faces of players as they leave the pitch if they had gone on such a bad losing streak as ours.

    I agree that booing rarely works. But with this ownership situation I guess people just feel helpless and in that moment want to show whatever displeasure they can.

    Charlton players get an easy ride with our fanbase.
    Which other fans are throwing their season tickets at the Manager though...? The only case is Blackpool because their owner refuses to spend any money, ours spends we just cant win matches because of poor Managerial appointments

    Your original comment stated that there wasn't much booing at Brentford though and now your saying that the fans did boo after each goal...

    Yes I understand that its frustrating for many Supporters but why not save your frustrations for the end of the match, doing it when we go a goal down is ludicrous because we have a chance of coming back (and before you laugh I watched a terrible Bolton side last night who got a fluke goal to equalise and then should have won the match... Their fans didn't boo once when they conceded!!)

    Would love to be given an example of when booing the side has helped the performance...?

    The only audible boos on Saturday were briefly at half time and then when the third goal went in.

    Like @cafctom says, compared to other clubs we're pussycats.

    Anyway - JBG wasn't really moaning, he was asked a question and he answered it, and when you read the full quote it's not as inflammatory as the original Newshopper online piece.
