Are you a 'plastic' boycotter?

You are a boycotter, so, do you....

1) Go to away games?
2) 'Support' the team remotely via IFollow at home games (which puts zero into Duchatelets pocket)
3) Sit at home, pump your chest out, proudly saying you boycott but do neither of the above
4) None of the above.

    Dont you live abroad which makes it easier to boycott?

    4. I would be 1 or 2 but a four month old baby means that's not happening and even under new/different owners I still wouldn't be going

    I don't go to away games.

    Do other things usually when games are on. Today was watching the Sky football live programme.

    Attended all the Valley protests and then went away from the Valley when the game started (once I decided to boycott).

    Attended the Football League protest.

    I don't know if that makes me a 'plastic boycotter' though.

    I am a protestor and in my world view boycotting is not the only form of resistance. Anyway I can't do it after all these decades and 'they'll never take my Charlton away".

    Not a boycotter, I just don’t go.

    Gave up my season ticket at start of 2011 season as my first kid was born during previous season.
    My two boys are now 8 and 5 and spend Saturdays running them around.

    Basically what I do... Honestly, this regime has virtually killed my support dead, though with my domestic arrangements going to the footie would be more hassle than it's worth (would still go to the odd game with my dad)

    1) for 'the fix'
    2) because I believe it's right, even though my iFollow is Jeff Stelling

    Been to about five home games in the last three years, but health issues have meant it's easier to stay at home to be honest. Will be doing the Southend game - but only because it's a freebie.

    I will get a ST the minute the Belgian Bastard disappears - whether or not I attend every home game, which I've tried to do for the past 40 years.

    My choice, my decision and I would never knock any Charlton fan who chose to view it differently.

    CAFC has been and will continue to be a massive, massive part of my life until the day I die and I cannot see that ever changing. Made so many life long friends because of this wonderful club and have a passion for everything it stands for.

    Who needs religion?

    I boycott home games unless my son wants to go, or I get a freebie. Only been to three away so far this season.
    I’ve been known to line Duchâtelet’s pockets in Crossbars unfortunately, but only to keep the boy happy.
    Rubbish boycotter basically.

    Gave up the season ticket. Go to enough home games to get my fix but not so many that the club gets more than they would if I had bought one. Rarely go to aways as I have little ones and so hard to get a days pass. Was gutted not to be going today but then it was 0-0 and didn’t feel so bad!

    My chest is permanently pumped but that is through eating too much and I am trying to do something about it!

    4 None of the above

    Attend matches but spend no other money on food, drink, jackpot tickets, shop or anything else.

    EDIT:

    Why do I attend matches?

    Mainly because my timespan for being able to is almost certainly limited.

    I've already missed 3 matches this season because of arthritic flare ups.

    Arthritis does not improve the older you get.

    Not sure what the term "Plastic Boycotter is meant to convey, except that the word "Plastic" is normally used in a derogatory fashion.

    Can I ask @The_President, are you a Plastic Belgium B20?

    Wasn't there a Test Match on when you started this thread? I thought you didn't like that sort of thing.

    I think you're more likely to be one mate with that comment.
