    Another bitter not ex-employee.

    More good coverage and this is before the event.

    Remind me how much Meire is paying Pitch PR and Bevngton to win the PR war?

    Very good article.

    Though I see someone has pasted a link to another view on Vital Charlton.

    It's something that would drive the Spelling Police, and its undercover Grammar operatives mad. With "drivel" spelt "dribble", among many other errors, and the author describing "the new management of Steve Grit(?????) and Alan Curbishley" bringing us back to the Premiership after the '98-'99 season.

    Never heard of him, most likely supported Luton until recently.

    Article apparently penned by a Michael Tucker. So poorly proofread, he even misspelled his surname.

    Well done @SE7toSG3

    Hence my quote about the tiny handful of people against the protests being driven by petty, personal grudges - he was destroyed on here by Henry Irving & was forced to flee with his tail between his legs & that 100% fuels his contrarian views & bitterness...

    Not a lot new but a very good article except for Robinson getting page space in an attempt to justify his inept management

    Got stuck in a discussion with a (Japanese?) Saints fan on Twitter in the replies to the article.

    Fuck me, I've tried to be nice, I've asked him to look up the situation, I've given him an article to read.. he just wont stfu, nor will he accept any logic.

    It's bloody bizarre.. strangest thing I've seen. Can't bring myself to block him, as that's a bit pathetic, but I can't bring myself to ignore him either.

    I'm being trolled by a japanese kid ffs.

    Great article, only enhanced by the absurdity of the idiot attempting to defend the indefensible further down.

    I think Nigel Williamson is actually a better writer than whoever authored the vitalfootball article.

    Are the pro-regime fans the new 2%?

    'Charltonlifer' is most definitely Incorrurptible Addict

    Classic Nigel/Incorruptible Addict sign-off, a veiled threat. "Those who refuse to sign up to a truce and prefer a 'fight to the death' have that right, of course. But they will have to live with the consequences of their actions and will find themselves increasingly isolated." Nigel's posted an identical comment at the bottom of the Guardian article () under the name Kentankerous.

    As for the post from "Charlton Lifer", the name is a bit of a giveaway. The other forum has a handful of individuals, mostly ones booted off here, who have an obsession with this forum ... so this is likely to be one of those usual suspects.

    Pretty sure all the anti-protest vital football articles have been written by Michael Tucker. I've not seen his name anywhere else before.

    Don't feed the trolls.

    A mention on CL is like an orgasm to them.

    Best to ignore them, even that is more than they deserve.
