TBH I can't see any statement they give out other than KM sacked and KF replaced with someone the fans respect appeasing all fans.
KM will not apologize for referring to all fans as merely customers who shouldn't complain. Considering how she said it in the Web Submit she backed up her statement clearly so she wasn't misinterpreted. IF she truly believes that she is right on that she won't ever apologize. If she does apologize, I will accept because you can't criticize someone on something specific if they admit their wrong (will accept even more so if she quits as a result), but it proves her naivety in business and she shouldn't be in that position.
That statement and KF being manager (interim must mean until the end of the season) has got my goat the most. The whole selling players coming through the youth, lets face it until we are in a financial and league position where we don't need to do this we will always be a selling club, its just not nice to hear even though we all know it.
All I can see them saying is they will try and communicate better with the fans, they have a plan and we need to trust they have our best interests at heart. I'm sure it will be just a case of saying something in the hope it appeases some fans but they know it will not appease all.
They will probably be announcing the closing of the area around the ground after games :-)
I can't see this statement being anything other than a disappointment.4 -

Perhaps they'll continue the pitch hire theme and put out a video of a couple at it behind the bins in the car park with the bloke wiping off on the made in charlton, destroyed in Belgium banner.2

I hope they roll out the corner flag photo - it's not serious unless the corner flag is used Olly!!!18

It will be player policy, acquisition, not much more0

I'm not going to speculate or even give it a moments thought on what the statement will be. That way I cannot be disappointed but I maybe over the moon, (with a bit of luck it will be the latter).0

I'm going for " we've accepted an offer from an unamed billionaire in the far east we are all now off back to belguim and Mr curbishly will take charge of the team"9

They will try to appease us ... don't let them fool you6

I expect many of you will be disappointed4

The statement will be ' CAFC would like to announce the new communications manager is Yorreverst Nigt Meire , she is from Belgium and she is looking forward to taking up her new position earlier than expected due to unforeseen circumstances.3

What time is this due?0

This is exciting. As much as I hate this ownership for the things they're doing to the club, you can't deny there's a certain amount of hilarity in some of the shite they come out with. Imagine if it's something like a statement claiming the fans' protests are a disturbance to neighbours and have to stop, or announcing that we'll be going to a mid-season tour to Belgium for team morale. It could be literally anything. It's like a really, really weird Christmas morning!12

Hang on a minute.
Is Wednesdays off something that the majority of football league clubs do? Players get Wednesdays off? As in, across the league? Can someone confirm as to whether this is standard industry practice?0 -
Pitches dont help...

I was thinking this too but thought I might just have limited knowledge compared to everyone else. On football manager I'd never let them have Wednesdays off.PaddyP17 said:Hang on a minute.

Players have usually had at least one weekday off a week - certainly under Curbs.PaddyP17 said:Hang on a minute.

I tend to go for either Fraeye replaced ("Sorry, Karel, but they loved us before you came along") or guff about new signings aimed at quietening the dissent or, if not, at least taking the steam out of what was achieved Saturday. They've had five days locked in a room with their PR experts to come up with this.0

** Ohh Carol gets the job permanently
** Confirm their commitment to make us "competitive"
** Understand fans frustration but Belgians empire wasnt built in a day

Based on what the News Shopper have issued I've totally lost interest in this statement now.
She's just going to turn it around so she's the victim again, or in true fashion she's going to try to justify her customer comments4 -
Didn't realistically expect KM to but at least articles like this prove that there is a lot of pressure on her to resign.ForeverAddickted said:http://www.newsshopper.co.uk/sport/14188756.Charlton_Athletic_announcement_not_in_regards_to_positions_of_Fraeye_or_Meire/

It'll be a plea to get people on side or at a bare minimum split the support base, stating we won't be for sale and we need to get behind the team. Our main and sole priority is to stay up this season and then build from there. We are working tirelessly blah blah blah.
It'll be carefully crafted as they've had so long to create it. And it'll be circa 1.45PM :- )1 -
After the protests last week and the commercial and social media this week they have to say something. Maybe they will front it out and say that the club is not, and nor will it be, for sale and KM's position is safe and the manager will be here as long as they want him to be and not as long as the fans want him to be.
Alternatively they could try the futile approach of trying to win us over. This is not going to work now so they might as well just give it to us straight along the lines of 'if you don't like it - tough!'
However, they do need to say something before the end of the week as the players need to know who is in charge and the fans (customers) need to know their place. That place might be 'we are sorry we will try harder' or it might be 'we don't care, do what you want'.
At the very least it is interesting, even if it will be a nothing statement.2
