    I don't understand the reference to "meeting Roland".

    To  give you a clue, he will literally be full of hot air.

    @lancashire lad I have checked Bowyer's comments and with Trust colleagues - Gallen not been mentioned in previous reports so we think he may be in a different situation. Does anyone have definitive info on his contract position?

    Maybe, but the pressure has got to be kept up on Roland, to get him out of the door,  we could do with banners in the ground for the playoffs, Jim White shouting our case on Talksprt with Roland, absolutely anything that will finally rid us of this bloke, he’s toxic (anything lawful kids).

    For the glass half full amongst us.

    Lee has asked Bromley Addicks to move meetings featuring players from Thursdays to Tuesdays next season.

    So he's planning for next season.

    NB We used to have our meetings on Tuesdays but the Karl Robinson asked us to move them to Thursdays.

    Bowyer's management has put him in a strong negotiating position and Duchatelet doesn't like players or managers in strong negotiating positions as they hold the cards. Bowyer knows that if he focuses on getting us up he will have no shortage of suitors. If Duchatelet had any sense he would bust a gut to tie him to the club, but that statement answers why we are screwed.

    We simply have to enjoy the ride and accept it may be a short one!

    If you were running any other football club in League One and to some extent, the Championship, you would be looking at Charlton and thinking I can grab a few bargains here knowing that the owner isn't interested in the success of the side and instead just wants filthy lucre to stuff in his pockets and help him cut his losses. It's even better when they consider that the nucleus of the side and the management team are out-of-contract in a few weeks time and can be got on the cheap.

    I strongly disagree about protest banners for the play offs.
    We need to be 100% behind the players.
    Anyway, I think we have a better chance of RD selling, if we are back in The Championship.

    Thursdays rarely clash with top football matches and never with Champions League. :-)

    This is fantastic news.  I don't want to read too much into it, but this is the first public hint that there might still be some players left after the summer.

    If Duchatelet had any sense he would, to borrow a well-known phrase from a prominent member of this parish, just sell the club and f... well, you know the rest.

    It'll get a bit boring just seeing George Lapslie at every meeting though  :)

    I would have thought it would be well within the capabilities of our witty slogan composers to come up with a multitude of suggestions which both support the team and draw attention to the "elephant in the room" that the one person NOT supporting them is Roland!

    It does not need to be either/or.

    It could be both/and.

    Planning ahead until his contract expires. 

    Good to see but without a new contract Bowyer's going through the motions and someone else will pick up what Bowyer is starting potentially.

    The CAS Trust statement has made me think about the point about giving Bowyer the recognition he deserves for his achievement.

    Please please please someone assure me that Roland won't come out and say it was his achievement if we do manage to get up.

    Well he refused to take the blame for us being relegated so logically he cannot take the credit for us being promoted (IF it happens).

    I know where you are coming from though.

    The Softly Terrorised One will say that as he was the one to appoint LB, LB's successes are in fact his. Simples.

    Perhaps something on the lines of the 'Where's Wally?' books with the reference to 'Where's Roland?' at the playoffs? Dress up and banners?!?

    I can see it now.
    Next season we have a Tuesday night match at the valley .
    We are awarded a penalty which Parker misses.
    Meanwhile Lyle Taylor is answering questions at Bromley Addicks .
    Why would Taylor be answering questions at Bromley Addicks next season when he'll be off in the summer to the first team that offers Roland a million?

    If you want to tell Bowyer to "do one", be my guest.  Just tell us in advance when so we can pre-book the ambulance.
