A Bonkers Statement from Club - the infamous {...} one

He's actually an idiot, omg

Has to be a fake as its so bad. But as Roly is all powerful, you could believe he just went mental and told them to post it. - none would have the balls to tell him not to.

Come on, stop picking on poor Uncle Roly, huh.

It's just mean.

Remember, it's difficult to type properly when your fingers are half stuck together with the glue from the gaffer tape....

"Last Sunday, some individuals did not come to The Valley to watch the game and support the team" - if 'some' means around 5,000+ supporters then sure , don't suppose you clear sound/commentary from your stream either Roly as the fans defiantly got behind the players; Support the team, not the Regime I believe It goes!

"Disorder which is, allegedly, needed to drive change in ownership and management." - erm ... YES! as you have failed to meet potential investors and certain people *cough Peter Varney Cough cough* , as you still don't give a shit what the "customers" want!


"Whom would they expect the club to be sold to? How long would a sales process take? Is it easier to sell the club when it is in League One rather than Championship?" - Dunno , Nor do we give a fuck AS LONG AS YOUR ARE GONE!

"Some individuals seem to want the club to fail." - says the geezer who appointed Karel Fraeye who was/is a Belgian third division manager AND not a good one at that!

"This is a confused approach, since following this logic leads to exactly the opposite of what we all want: staying in the Championship." - NO , what WE want is you GONE!


"used as a method to discredit and fuel personal abuse" - not too sure how you can discredit someone who has literally done sweet FA , apart from introducing a Fans sofa - something that is in discussion to be removed! Lemme guess ,Katrien has been on the Blower "Roland , They know about how I got my job here"


"Although certain individuals tell you it does not happen, in recent weeks Roland Duchatelet has met the fans, the CEO has met with several different groups of fans and the communications team have attended several fans meetings. We will continue these meetings and constructive dialogue with fans." - Individuals PLURAL tell us it didn't happen , However YOU (One single person) tells us it did happen ? I don't think I believe you Mr.Duchatelet! Certainly cant find ANY information in the public domain to back you up and tell the people how they met the Glorious Leader!
Again, we wanted constructive dialog Months ago , a year ago! YOU DECLINED THEN AND YOU DECLINED MORE RECENTLY!


"Every football fan knows the 12th man is a crucial factor in the success on the pitch. " - so is a balanced, appropriate and experienced team full of championship ability players You decrepit old man! We're Still waiting for that! But I forgot ... you're not a football man anyway are you!

"*I think the difference is also because fans don't see themselves as customers and {…} they go to the restaurants with their families every week and they go to the cinema but if they aren't satisfied with the product will they go and scream to the people in charge of it? No they don't, but they do it with a football club and that's very weird (meaning unique) because they feel a sense of ownership of a football club and that's a really difficult balance of how you try and engage with fans and make them, incorporated into some of the decisions of the club, {…}." - NO , because many Charlton Fans did OWN the club years ago , and it was only when your mate and fellow Old Age Prick ( OAP here in the UK) Mr. Richard Murray fucked them all over! We have invested time and finances into this club for YOU to ridicule it - AND WE ARE STANDING UP TO YOU!

Duchatelet , you have underestimated Charlton fans , just like you supposedly underestimated the Championship multiple times!
WE WANT OUR CHARLTON BACK!

"In recent weeks Roland has met the fans".

When ? Where ?
Is senility contagious ? Mad Murray and deluded Deuchatelet.

Surely this is km rather than Roland? Despite him working in electronics I can't imagine he can use a computer

I think we've all be had here.

And since when does the word "weird" mean unique !

Poor ol Roly has gone Radio-Rental.

Now is the moment to isolate the other members of the regime. Ask if they agree with the statement. Get on their Twitter accounts & e-mails. Start with the head of comms.

I assume all the media outlets have been sent a copy.

Make the club unmanageable was Airman's statement. Get stuck in.

Two scenarios:

1. It's the work of someone who has unauthorised access to the site backend and was able to post a "fake" article.
2. It's a draft that Roland and/or Katrien has pushed through despite, I would expect, internal pressure not to. That article certainly isn't "polished".

Unbelievable Geoff!

I've been watching this unfold on Twitter, so only just catching up on this threat. So glad that everyone's reaction was the same as mine, that this can't be real. But it clearly is.

@LoOkOuT your thoughts are the same as mine. There is awkward writing in there that a Copy Editor would normally clean up. I also suspect that given it went out around 2100 that it didn't go through many (if any) filters, and that may have been deliberate.

We can have a go at the director of Comms but I'd be shocked if she saw this before it went out, and if she did can't imagine she had any say. What a shit job. Same for the content fellas who have to upload this nonsense.

On the bright side, he is making himself out to look like a clueless, out of touch megalomanic. In public. In writing.

Louis saying it's all Roland's work.

It is pretty poor so am inclined to believe him.

Social Media and the cafc hashtag on Twitter has gone into melt down. If this wasn't real the story would have been pulled by the website by now.

Yeah, but enough about the regime....
