CAST Survey Results - more "Grim" reading

"Worried"  "Fearful"  "Embarrassed"  "Precarious"  "Nervous"  "Uncertain".

These were the predominant terms chosen by Charlton fans when asked to describe in one word their feelings about the future of Charlton Athletic over the next twelve months. A small number opted for "hopeful".

    From the comments, some of them were basing that on the Varney talk coming to fruition.

    Proper business owners would have alarm bells ringing over these survey results. Bet this lot don't give a toss. Too busy trying to master the dark arts - but ain't clever enough.

    It seems we may have a de facto season ticket strike on our hands, and that's pretty much how I feel.

    I can't help feeling angry with the club even though I know they are just doing their job, when they send out emails asking us to renew and have early bird promotions, when we don't even know where our season ticket money would end up.

    I'm afraid I replied to one of their emails suggesting I would think about renewing once the owners had passed the fit and proper test and proved funds for the transfer embargo to be lifted. It's not their fault of course, but perhaps the SLT could show some sensitivity in their approach to this issue.

    3500 people need their heads examined. Not sure how much all the different tickets are but lets say £300 average, that's just over 1m quid in the criminal scums pockets. Wonder if you'll see your season tickets ?

    Certainly not buying a season ticket when there's no guarantee there'll be a club to support in two weeks.

    4% of fans thought ESI's priority should be "marquee signings", do they not know we are under an embargo?
