http://mobile.cafc.co.uk/news/article/charlton-athletic-target-20000-group-launched-2832833.aspx Some launch that. It doesn't need a bloody committee - it needs decent investment in to the first team! We don't care about couches, pie cams or cheerleaders. This reminds me of a previous job where they would arrange a meeting to arrange a seperate meeting - it's a joke. It bothers me that some will see this as the club "taking action". It's all smoke and mirrors.
They'll be falling over themselves as we speak. Or arranging a meet in a pub (has to be in eltham though) for next Wednesday at 7pm sharp, to see who they mutually agree on nominating for the coveted positions. Because it haaaaaas to be organized and signed off by the same faces. Any new individuals will be punished by public humiliation on charlton life.
Paddy Power are offering odds on the Committee membership - Tricky Dicky Pemberton 1/1000 Ben Hayes 1/50 Syd Cheeswright (Trains Dept) Evens Ackers 66/1
That's quite a big commitee she's forming. However, Karol Fraeye is still here. and without a new manager and some new players, we may not even have enough fans to cover all the places on the commitee come may. Walking in a Belgian fantasy-land!! Why does'nt she ask if any Charlton fans are médiums. Then we could try and contact addicks who are dead, and maybe fill the ground with the spirits of those who have gone. Not very likely I know, but then again, looking at the thread title.......
Target 20,000 - is this the most bizarre example ever of putting the cart before the horse? We have had great successes from Katrien already, including the Pie Cam, the Fans Sofa, and the cheerleaders at half time. Perhaps the next fan-luring innovation will be impersonations? Simon Makienok could be first up, impersonating a centre forward.
Can we keep the cheerleaders, please? Some of them are mildly average, and plus I take enjoyment winding up a certain someone about them. Merely for personal purposes.
Target 20,000 is a bit like the Captain of the Titanic ordering a dinner of foie gras and smoked salmon as the water laps round his ears. Appoint Steve Coppell, Nigel Pearson or Dave Jones on a 3 year contract as our manager. Sign 5-6 experienced British players in January. Results will improve. Attendances will go up.
yep, it's just nuts. spoke to the people i sit with this week and the lot i work with about next season. most wont be going back next year. the gimmicks are too much, the only thing, and this is a constant, that will make them go back is heavy investment in the squad. we all go to see our first team hopefully beat someone. we dont go to see the blowjob cam, the sofa, two shiny new mascots, lies, increased advertising everywhere. we only want to see decent football for 90 mins, once a fortnight. this whole "bringing a community" together and having good communication, they can shove up their @rses. we'll be together when we start winning again and we can face going. no one cares about the good communication with the club. when you do a good job in any field you dont get any communication back, that's how you know you're doing a good job. no one ever offers a good review. a signed personal message from mrs 'mare makes it worse. really poor PR exercise from the club.
katrien's the first contestant, and with her looking like a horse i dont like your chances of procreating after!
