    I wouldn't make any banners in a language that you aren't familiar with unless the wording is checked by someone that is - Google translate wont help you avoid a "Ich bin ein Berliner" moment !

    Its getting close !

    10 day weather forecast now slipped in this morning for next Saturday, and shows a very small chance of rain - highs of 55 and lows of 42 - sounds like perfect protesting weather...

    Herge was a complicated character to understand in the context of today and definitely a man of his time - but Tintin was a great creation and Asterix and Tintin were my treats as a child. I'll defend him to the hilt!

    Without the aid of the estimable Muttley I wouldn't have a banner to take.

    It is going to be nearly 7.5 ft wide and 5 ft tall so should be noticeable!

    Ahaa so we're having a ' mine is bigger than yours ' competition!.... Actually guessing ours might be identical to yours.

    My flag says "We want our Charlton back". Do I need to translate that or will RD understand do you think?

    I have my st George's flag with Roland Out written on it in marker pen.

    I'd quite like something that says

    'Our club, not yours'

    As mentioned on Billy thread, Billy the Barmy Army Trumpeter sent a message yesterday saying he wont be able to make next Saturday, but wishes us the best in 'getting that lot out'.

    Real pity.

    Forgot to mention , every penny from the sale of the Roland Out merchandise goes straight to the protest fund after paypal fees.

    Thought youd already sorted yourself out Siv ? - cmon get your backside in gear !

    There's no deadline mate - however, if you want coach/hotel/buffet then you might want to get your skates on.

    Further support from STVV fans on their Forum today...

    "Why do I join the march with the people of Charlton and GRAS?

    The pre RD era:

    -bad football
    -Poor Turf (typically STVV)
    -A Good team on the field with the (few) budget that was available, despite little quality still much dedication and effort so it was a competitive team.
    -A Ramshackle but very atmospheric stadium where each jumper to could identify with.
    -Usually Players from the region, foreigners were an absolute value.
    As relatively low prices because the weekly was well filled.

    The era RD:

    -bad football
    -No More turf
    -No Good team despite the potentially large budget, just quality but little devotion and dedication so there will never be a competitive team on the artificial turf.
    -A Modern events venue which has little to do with football with the seats very far away from the field. (Practical) No jumper to which can be found in here.
    -usually Players from strange places, cheap foreigners are commonplace. Players with real added value after a (half) year away.
    -Duurdere Prices because fewer people show up. To the stadium to give a full view many free cards are distributed most of which do not show up again.

    One vd last straw which we can grab to reclaim the soul of our club. Now we will quietly die without a soul, and we could die 10 years ago with soul.

    Hopefully I'm going to join in the large crowd."


    All sounds too familiar doesnt it.?

    More from STVV.. (not sure about the phew,phew, Badger bit - but i'm sure you get the gist.)....

    "A little empathy and goodwill RD, a little bit, instead of the cool refrigerator ...
    Then there is no problem, no nagging, and no nagging ...
    That can be really not an insurmountable problem ...

    THE question that continues to occupy me: what inspires the man still on his 70th?
    It is yet to run against the wall with your head, let's be honest ...
    How can you now so exist? Phew phew phew, badger really about as a club owner, come say !!! "
