Rarely speechless. But this has done it. Other than to say is it me or is this complete bollocks? Is anyone aware of these meetings that have supposedly taken place?
Another possible explanation is say katrien decided to post it and her staff refused so she done it her self which would explain the lack of web design knowledge involved.
Unlikely though
Or Roland said "I am the shareholder, if I want to post a statement, I will....huh..."
Let's get this statement thrown out to media outlets everywhere
You're missing the point that this is yet another statement with no facts aimed at the media, to show how victimised poor Squirrel Face is and also how passionate Roland is about the club
Haha my North Korea flag is looking even more appropriate after this.
I did see one on the coverage - assumed that was you
With "Roland, Our Great Leader" on top
I don't think this is RD, I think we've finally broken Meire and she's forced an underling at Ebbsfleet to publish it. This is hilarious but also another sad new low for OUR club.
Seems like a likely scenario but I reckon it played out like this:

Olly,
Here is a draft version of what I want to say to the customers but I know my English is not great and this may not be worded well. Could you please re-word so those stupid customers do not use the wording to attack me. Also I want to clear up what I said in Dublin, could you please re-word and stick it in? I have put it at the bottom and put an asterisk where the misunderstanding should be cleared up.
Please publish on website when finished.
Hope the trainee employees are playing well. What is an Ebbsfleet?

Olly glances at his phone, sees 'Here is a draft...please publish on website'. Lazily copies and pastes with one hand whilst keeping an eye on the match. Presses submit. Sticks phone in pocket.

Whoever wrote this statement should be sacked - it's so badly written and childish that it seems almost surreal.
Oh deary deary me. KM been having a few glasses of wine in her office while working late. Never drink and publish a teenage rant on your place of work's official communication channel!
Love the way that quotes now come with guidance in brackets on how you should interpret the words (usually the words themselves would do that in a quote, wouldn't they?).
I assume it is Roland - odd it is issued as a statement with no writer despite being very personal - reacting to protests and also to try to show wholesale backing for Squirrel Face. Yet again, all it has done is shown how hopelessly out of touch the wrinkled old tit is.
Found this posted elsewhere, is this for real, or is someone trying to make out that football fans are thick?
addickted2hcharlton • 9 minutes ago Yeah well thass not wot I think. Some of them dahn our gaff on Sunday were nasty vile exenophobes,. We need to support the board n there right to put ahrt a statement n all. Ere I'm goin to set up a group of fans against exenophobes n their ilk cos less face it we need one.
The joke was never funny, not even the first time around. Why can't that poster just kill his a2c character off?
Makes Roland's statement look like perfect English...

I only hope our new Head of Communications quits. Either because it is so awful, or if she approved it because it is so awful.

Exactly how i see it as well. This is almost certainly down to her.
A massive PR disaster own goal!

What a quite extraordinary load of self-serving and intemperate drivel. I almost feel embarrassed for them.
The cracks are really now opening up.

They actually done that AFTER the previous "club statement". It took them over a day to come up with that. It's pure gold.
"Shooting yourself in the foot" understatement of the year in regards to where this unidentifiable club is concerned.
They might aswell get rid of the comms team their jobs are now untenable and pointless.
Richard Murray has to wake up now.
Richard, resign and stab em in the back via SLP. You still have that choice open to yourself....you stupid prat
I suspect that the vendor of their CMS and their hosting company will have something to say about that kind of libelous defence.
Logging on first thing tomorrow to order 57 season tickets and won't let those nasty CARD bastards turn my head ever again.
Long live the regime!
