I don’t imagine there are many Charlton supporters – if any - that are happy with the way the club is at the moment. But it seems that we all have different views on what action we, as supporters, should take to affect the situation. Some will carry on regardless, some will boycott or complain on social media, and others will actively protest. Everybody has a right to their views and take the action they see fit.
I was looking forward to seeing Charlton play at Northampton. It would have been my 131st ground following Charlton over many years. But as I’ve got older I’ve recognised that it’s not the number of grounds that I have been to that’s important, but more the experiences and memories that following Charlton have given me.
Saturday 4th March will be another new experience for me. It should have been at Northampton, but I’ll be driving to Belgium instead. Hopefully, if we stay up, I can go to Sixfields next year. Being with the group of supporters protesting in Belgium will be a different experience, and in the wider scheme of things far more important. Whether the protests are successful or not, I’ll have the memories of a weekend knowing I helped try to change the situation. It could be an ‘I was there’ moment if the owner does sell up.
I hope others feel the same and join the protests, foregoing the experience of Sixfields for those in Sint Truiden. It might help banish the memories of last night.60 -
This evening on the STVV fan forum GrAS have announced their participation in the Unity Protest. Here are a few comments posted:
From Jan Bulder:
"Finally an STVV event I can take part in. They say there will be 200 fans coming from Charlton".
From pat@:
"Ah sweet! The arrival of some disgruntled ex-employees of Charlton. Add to that a whole section disgruntled former employees at STVV. That would mean that Roland: still not the leader he wants to be, with so many opponents11 -
Well said mate. Those who do nothing when they can do something, however little, can't complain when nothing changes. Having been to St Truiden a couple of times before - supporting the team in pre-season, I can say there are worse places to go. As you said, you can always do Northmapton next year.SX_Addick said:I don’t imagine there are many Charlton supporters – if any - that are happy with the way the club is at the moment.

Just wondering if there are a couple of protest shirts left over?
They would need to be quite large though as I know of 2 very bitter ex-employees who are thinking of making the trip to Belgium !!22 -

You wont get very far speaking French in St Truiden i'm afraid - a bit like walking into a Glasgow booza speaking in your best Oxbridge accent.Karim_myBagheri said:new song for the lads in Belgium. (I presume they speak French there)

Did you see we're trying to get Billy the Barmy Army trumpeter to come ? Apparently, he's an Addick.0 -

No disrespect, your french could do with a bit of brushing up.Karim_myBagheri said:new song for the lads in Belgium. (I presume they speak French there)

Translation into (despised) french would have been : Nous ne sommes pas une salle de danse, nous sommes Saint Trond!
In this case, the word putain is the translation of fcking.

Oh, unfortunately as pointed out earlier, Sint Truiden is in the Flemish part of the country and the language is virtually indistinguishable (in the writen form although there is a dialect on spoken form) from Dutch.Karim_myBagheri said:new song for the lads in Belgium. (I presume they speak French there)
Nous sommes St Truiden et nous Ne pas putain de Danse
Travellers interested in speaking the local languahe should brush on the Dutch rather than the French language options.
Here is a basic example (google not local translate)
We are Sint Truiden and we do not like this dance.
we zijn Sint Truiden en we houden niet van deze dans
