    It is too Clemmit's credit that he has not ignored the response of Charlton fans.
    Hopefully he will himself now have a bit of perspective, and communicate that.

    On air to redress the balance or else it means nothing. Needs to be from the horse's mouth.
    Totally agree - it is good that he has spoken to people but does not undo the damage of his flippant on-air remarks.

    I've just had a chat on the phone with Clem too (was not expecting that call!)

    I think he's doing the rounds now for a chat about Charlton based on the reaction of the last couple of days.

    We had a good chat and he took on board what I had to say about Charlton and our situation and vice versa.

    He's also planning to speak directly to CARD on the phone.

    I've heard there's a Charlton-based radio show thingy that kicks off tonight - any chance of someone connected to that getting him to make an appearance on the show at some point?

    I did ask but tonight doesn't work for him. A future appearance hasn't been ruled out.

    Excellent work everybody making sure the fans side of the story is put across to media, all sparked by an excellent letter from Weegie. Credit to Clemmit as well for following up and making the effort to be properly informed.

    There are two sides to this story, and I don;t agree with every single bit of criticism the regime has been given, but I do agree with a lot of it and one thing for sure, there is no denying the expertise that we as fans have within our midst when it comes to getting our message out there. Expertise the club could very much benefit from it is was only more willing to.

    Did Clemmit ever ring card or make any other statement? Over a week now.

    Clemmit just on 5Live. They were talking about the position at Blackburn and how disillusioned the fans were and Clemmit followed up by how shocked he was at the Charlton situation, describing it as 'terminal' and acknowledging the unhappiness.

    I've written an open letter to Clemmit and Riley on behalf of CAS Trust: castrust.org/2016/08/open-letter-mark-clemmit-george-riley-bbc-5live-dear-mark-george/

    I wish I could put across our plight so eloquently...fantastic letter Heather.

    This shows the value of continuing to challenge Meire on every occasion when she tries to spin things her way.
    Weegie Addick's letter on behalf of CAS Trust clearly prompted 5Live to do some proper research.

    It's at 1.26.45. Just a snippet but worth a listen for the tone and context. Clemit seems to say we're the worst of a bad bunch: "Absolutely. Charlton is absolutely terminal. I've been shocked at how much hatred there is towards the ownership regime down there."
