Useful or a pain ?i

Do the majority of loyal supporters believe in all these embarrassing. actions making it a suitable environment for our children.Why are the stewards not taking action to remove the people who disrupt play by throwing things .On one occasion an idiot chucked a stuffed toy onto the field in full view of the steward who just watched him No action.A good example to the kids who are our future.
Grow up and stop spoiling the match experience for the rest.

    Yeah .... Er no!

    I think CARD have been an inspiration to us all and especialy youngsters.

    But some of my favourite memories of being a 7 yr old standing by the railings at the front of the east terrace are throwing peanut shells to see if they could actually get over the gravel and onto the pitch.

    I'm sorry philipoters but I thought for a moment I read, 'spoiling the the match experience'. We don't have match experiences because we're a restaurant now.

    Can I make a serious suggestion here, just lighten up and enjoy the moment. People go to football because they want to see a spectacle. But the the most part of two years there has been no spectacle to enjoy. The regime are slowly rotting our club away and the protesters are doing everything they can to try and heal the sickness. For me the protests have been the single most enjoyable thing at The Valley this season. Try loosening up a bit and stop thinking you need to act like the outraged son of Bill Grundy and Victoria Gillick, you might just enjoy it.

    Whilst you have a valid viewpoint look around the sparsely populated stadium and think that the majority of those "disrupting" your matchday experience won't be there next season. They are using what is left of their season tickets to make their views known rather than sit idly by and watch the club slowly die.

    I honestly thought this was a tongue in cheek post until I looked at this bloke's previous comments. Good job him and his like were not the ones we relied on from '85 to '92, there would be no supporters to throw things on the pitch as there would be no pitch, or club.

    Why is everyone biting? Look at the posters history, he starts a controversial thread and then bolts leaving everyone to battle it out, he done the same with his comments about Powell, BWP etc, drops bombs and runs. I think we call it a "WUM".

    Yes a majority do support these actions. But I agree, we do need to think of the poor children. Children are the future. And that poor stuffed cat dog, hope it didn't suffer. #justiceforcatdog

    Aah, Lovejoy's law - think of the children!

    You always know someone's logical thinking has gone right out the window when that's lobbed into a discussion.

    I really hope my nine year old doesn't find the match day experience too boring when Roland sells. She lives and breathes the protests. She was upset when we realised there was no after match shouting at a building.

    She is the sweetest little thing (obviously I'm a bit biased there) but she hates Roland (and the ref. yesterday). Equally she went ballistic when we scored in injury time.

    Supporting Charlton is never going to be straight forward and we all go along for our own reasons. At the moment, for many, the reason is to try and help our club from spiralling downwards into a world of uncertainty. If that means some match disrupting protests so be it. I'm in. If we sit back and let it happen it will happen. The sooner Roland sells the better.

    Hang 'em, that's what I say. Hanging's too good for 'em.
  • I'm all in favour of action being taken against those who have (for the past two and a bit seasons) being ruining the matchday experience, by throwing unmitigated sh1te onto the pitch, in the mistaken belief that they were putting together "a Championship team with Premiership ambitions". If only there was some way of getting rid of such nasty people...

    It's almost enough to make you want to protest.

    I think you'll find it's spelt "shite". You would't want to teach the little darlings about whom this thread is so concerned how to spell incorrectly, would you?

    I think it's a good thing that children learn at an early age that there are people out there who are quite happy to shit on their dreams and ambitions. They're learning that sometimes you have to fight tooth and nail for what you want.

    Exactly.

    Or, do you want to teach your child to be passive? A pushover? Someone who does not stand up for what they believe in?

    Tim Grundy was a very nice young man - knew him when I lived in Cheshire and he was a DJ on Radio Piccadilly.
    Looked like his father, had strong opinions, like his father, liked a beer or three, like his father but a gentle man and nothing like as obnoxious as father Bill.

    Sadly, Tim passed away 7 years ago aged just 50.
    He was a good man and interesting conversationalist. A sad loss.

    Agree with philiorters. How are our children supposed to learn to stand in line, do as they're told (even if what they're being told is wrong), and never learn to fight for what they believe in with all this going on?

    Oh yeah.. school

    Standing up for something you believe and protesting in a peaceful non violent way with a bit of humour ? Absolutely shocking, something needs to be done.

    Jesus Stig, you're showing your age there. I know you've changed your profile pic to Wolfie Smith, but I didn't realise you were old enough that you could actually be him. Of course, now I've outed myself as someone old enough to get all those references too. :blush:

    I actually think my kids have enjoyed the protests more than the football this season, and in a way it's made them back us more. If it wasn't for the harmless yet effective banter of beach balls, stress balls, fancy dressed Pinocchio's and that stuffed dog I reckon they'd have been poached by the lure of the Olympic Stadium and premiership football next season...
