    Are the grammatical errors kept in on purpose so we assume it's written in a second language or just incompetence? Surely this would of had to have been checked, checked again and then checked some more.

    At first I thought the site had been hacked!

    Glass houses, stones?

    It's not fake. I'm in the press box at a Charlton U21 game and watched it get published #cafc

    That poor media relations lady, even she must realise what a numpty she's now working for....... and just after she's set up a new email address!

    It seriously looked like a drunk fan has hacked the website, I'm gobsmacked.
    I am truly and genuinely shocked and the belated attempt to rectify the 'customer' mistake at this stage?
    Even having been told its not fake I still can't quite believe that a 'business' which is what it purports to be, would allow this unfettered rant with its incredible PS to be published. Not only Katrien Meire's position but surely that also now of Mel Baroni must be untenable. This is melt down stuff!!!!!
    By all accounts, Roland wrote this himself.

    Just preparing another companies house form for Pinocchio... She may be needing this
  • Are we sure this isn't the same guy who did the Companies House gag? It's f*cking priceless as parody.

    Phone transcript. 15 March, 23:20...

    KM: Roland?

    RD: This had better be good.

    KM: It is - I have some great news.

    RD: Well?

    KM: I looked on the twitter tonight. We're trending!

    RD: ...and..?

    KM: It's a really good hashtag

    RD: OK, Katrien, I'll buy it. What EXACTLY is the hashtag that's trending?

    KM: It's a really good one. Honestly.

    RD: Katrien, just tell me what hashtag is trending.

    KM: It's...

    RD: Come on Katrien, don't waste my time.

    KM: It's...

    RD: Just tell me

    KM: #HappyValley

    RD: {...}

    KM: {...}

    RD::Goodbye Katrien

    Is this the beginning of the end...? I really hope so.
  • Clucking bell! Roland and Katrien have finally jumped the shark. Priceless.

    I think amongst all the excitement and incredulity, we're all forgetting the important issue:

    *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

    Erm yes they do actually... For example I ordered a Pizza Hut the other week, not a top star restaurant but it took over an hour to arrive with me having to phone twice asking where it is.

    I didnt ask for it but a few days later I received an email apologising for the Service with a free £10 voucher
    Can you use it on the lunchtime buffet?

    Not sure if it's been mentioned, but it's rather ironic that the club posted this message -complete with a jibe about finding a new owner - whilst we had a team playing at a club ran by a man who knows a potential buyer... #awkward
  • You know on the work's do when the drinks are flying and the little shy fella that's said nothing all year gets naked and starts dancing on the bar... This is more shocking and embarrassing than that.

    Also, asking the fans to be the 12th man just after someone gets a 3 year ban for going on the pitch is just downright confusing...

    "Some individuals seem to want the club to fail. This is a confused approach"

    Biggest pisstake in that statement. Symultaneously suggesting we want cafc to fail, and that we are so stupid that we wouldn't understand why that's a bad thing.
  • I think tomorrow morning's "routine" conference call will be a hoot.

    High fives all round, I shouldn't wonder....

    Just been put up on the Guardian:

    http://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/mar/15/charlton-athletic-championship-fans-protest

    Statement copied word for word with little analysis, but no doubt will be picked up by commentators tomorrow.

    Excellent.

    We are reaching the end game now, what a very bizarre turn of events,

    It looks very much RD was not aware of the scale of unrest until Sunday, I suspect tomorrow could be very interesting....

    Indeed from the end of the beginning to the beginning of the end.
