Add a hook to it & it can double up as the wreath-holder @Henry Irving was asking about... It's about all Roly is use for!1

Not a rant but I was only a day out predicting another bizarre message from Roland.LargeAddick said:Good letter, concise and to the point. Sit back and await another Roland rant on Tuesday.6 -
He’s at it again!!2

I love how the comms guys have published the CARD statement.
Only Roland Duchatelet could attack his fans on the eve of one of the most important games in recent years. He probably doesn't even realise we're playing.15 -
Shame he couldnt thank fans for showing up in numbers for such a big game this Friday night
Seeing that protesters are 2% of the fanbase1 -
Rattled his cage there then !!!

It’s almost like he doesn’t want us to go up. Don’t be surprised to hear ‘Glad all over’ blaring out as the teams walk out on Friday night. That will encourage the post-match dancing, huh.2

How can the Belgian Embassy, "not interfere in any way in what they consider a private matter."
Yet at the same time The Embassy " pledged to report back to the relevant authorities in Belgium, which include government officials, the regional authorities and the police?1 -
Is Mr Huygelen on twitter?

"I demand the Belgian Embassy buys Charlton"

No, both were quotes from CARD's statement. Here it is again.Scoham said:

I'm not criticising CARD, I just don't understand how you are unable to intefere and then intefere ?
Perhaps a bit of clarity is required, although I'd prefer the clarity after Friday if we lose or after the play off final if we win.
"Although the Belgium Embassy is unable to interfere in private matters, Leroy noted the concerns expressed to him and pledged to report back to the relevant authorities in Belgium, which include government officials, the regional authorities and the police."

The "private matter" is the ownership of Charlton and the fans' dissatisfaction with it; the reporting back relates to the issues that might arise from it such as protests in Belgium.Covered End said:

The statement seems to me like further confirmation that CARD rattled his cage. Its timing is ridiculous and his inability to see how inappropriate that is says it all really.6 -
He treats Charlton fans like a petulant child.5
-
Why does he need to do this? And why now?
Just leave you scrote.4 -
I don’t even really see it as an attack on CARD. What is he trying to achieve with that statement?!?1

That tosser Rubbershoes ain't earning his keep at the moment is he?Maybe Roland will make him CEO

I agree that it's not really appropriate to focus on this too much with such a huge match coming up, but just to support @Airman Brown in his interpretation of "interfere".Airman Brown said:

And for the record, I have an email from Alain Leroy dated 7 May, which includes the following:
"My report concerning our meeting was sent to the Federal Public Service (Ministry) Foreign Affairs. I can tell you that Mr Duchâtelet got informed about the meeting, which was your main objective/concern."
I did not press him for information on which, if any, other more "local" authorities may have been informed. Quite frankly, it doesn't matter. The report went to the equivalent of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, and it was raised with Duchatelet. That'll do me.28 -
I reckon if we could now get Strictly Come Dancing to contact him to ridicule his foxtrot, that would tip him right over the edge.

Who gives a f##k. We have a big game Friday3

I do, for one.WhenIwasLittleBoy said:Who gives a f##k. We have a big game Friday
Because win or lose our big game on Friday, I still care that the ownership of the club is currently with an incompetent, incoherent, rambling old fool.
But I’m not telling you what to do or think.

Exactly this. If RD is still in charge if/when we address in the championship everyone will care.Off_it said:

It'll be interesting to see how many season tickets we sell if we get promoted and Rolands still here.Uboat said:

So, finally, there it is. Taken directly from a headline on the Charlton website. They've finally admitted what we knew all along...
