    'I realise there is nobody to hide behind now'.

    No love, not even a fucking great banner!

    Or a sofa.

    @mackle they were filming the crowd (not the match) during and after from NWA. They certainly will see it.

    That camera spent the whole time in the second half filming the section I was in in the North Upper. I can understand filming the North Lower, but this just made no sense.

    Did get a number of waves though, friendly bunch we are

    "What a way to run a railroad". An incompetent, overcomplex, or disastrous way of doing something; a flawed and botched methodology.

    Personally, I'd suggest that CARD should try to allocate fans to film those filming the fans....

    We now face a significant week in the affairs of Charlton Athletic.

    I don't underestimate this regime's capacity for madness and delusion, but I really can't in my wildest imaginings see how Katrien can continue?
    What on earth can be the story?
    Even if Katrien lists in detail and chronological order all of her calamities, even if she apologises for every one of them from the heart, even if it is admitted mistakes have been made, lessons learned, change coming...how can it be credible that Katrien has the capacity to do this job in the future?
  • Wouldn't it be great if Wilder agrees to join but only if Meire goes. That may be Roland's best way out of this mess.

    No chance would he agree to that.
    She will be promoted to another job within his empire. No way will he or her be seen to have given in to the peasant hordes of SE7.

    Yes I spent a fair amount of time 'waving' at that camera

    Now what we need is the unlovely Katie promising to run round the Valley naked with an 'Addock up her a**e if Katrien gets sacked.

    If Katrien goes, we get a new manager who looks like he might be the sort of man to pull it around if left to his own devices, and then he makes some decent signings, do we stop protesting?

    I think this is a maybe. Katrien staying the answer would be no.

    This could easily become a no. But it's not a no from me straight off the bat.

    After reading elsewhere that a mob stormed crossbars violently searching for katrien.
    Perhaps the club got wind of this and advised her to leave at half time.
    I am sure this would have shaken her up. It would shake me up too.
    She must surely know that her time is limited? If nothing else, I can't imagine that she will swan in to the ground on foot next season.
    She will be mad if she does.

    I didn't think there was a way out, but that is probably because I hadn't anticipated these two occurrences, which would be a massive U-turn on Roland's part. I do think this could be a way out for him which would allow him to stay as owner - as long as the change of approach was communicated correctly to fans. He has to move Meire out though - that is very important.

    The liar banner and a whole stadium chanting Liar, liar, liar at you would have to go down as an all time low in that job.

    I can't think of any other role where you would be that that exposed.

    To over use her phrase, it's wierd (meaning unique). A uniquely poor performance exposed to the world...

    Personally I don't care if she never gets another job again, I just want her to leave this one.

    I think a CEO and chairman forced to flee the ground at half-time by their own supporters must rank as a career low ...

    Hmm, she's got a lot of contenders. For others though, most certainly would be.

    Is that true (re Crossbars) ... if so, explains the lack of grins and early exit. They must have all been worried that it was really going get nasty at the final whistle, plus I suspect there was a hope that without them there then there was no object to protest at so it might die down quickly. Still, if she had any honour she's have taken the sofa with her at half-time rather than leave it all alone to face the mob.

    No-one stormed it before kick off, I picked up my JJ shirt from there before the match, and no sign of any mob, angry or otherwise. Just the usual older fans and those with kids.

    In the 60's, this used to happen all the time at Millwall. If their chairman, Mickey Purser, wasn't around to have a go at, they would smash the windows of his VW dealership in the Old Kent Road. Happy days!

    What they are doing to the club is criminal, so I don't have much sympathy.
