Charlie boy is at Bromley next week, on the 3rd October. Being realistic, I reckon I'll only be able to ask three questions. My one will be "can you confirm that you were passing on information to allow message boards to broadcast info to the fanbase?"
I can’t see it being that well attended, but you certainly should get 3 questions in. In addition to asking him about passing on info to forum stooges on message boards, can you follow up with - 1. What was the net transfer spend at the club this summer, incl the Alfie May fee ? 2. How to do communications with “insiders” like lawnmower man Swiz, Dubai, and of course Global arise ? Does he send for them, or do they send for him ? Or do they do it by a billet doux ? Please ask.
You are the ideal man for that meeting. You may be an inebriated little pest, but you were the first to coin the phrase “apologists” on ITTV while Canterbury Addick posted about his deep admiration for Katrien, and I recall standing in the away end with you at places like Walsall, Chesterfield and Northampton as you led the masses in just sell the club, our famous football club” A protest that was described at the time as embarrassing by the out of touch Global Moderator.
It was probably Canterbury who was singing purple, purple, you're a c***.....................better than being an apologist
@ElfsborgAddick I can just picture the scene on 3 October at Petts Wood social club. Twenty badly dressed old duffers gather around, adjusting their hearing aids as Methven agrees to take questions. CM: “Yes you there …fire away …but can you stand up to address me”? Elfs: “Err …I am standing up” ….
Someone should ask him how many of the current squad are good enough to play in the Championship if we get promoted.
@ElfsborgAddick “Mr Methven, I am going to be blunt. Having presided over our worst league finish in 100 years last season, things are not looking good again this season. Many, many fans want you out. What will it take for you to stop milking the club and go ?”
Methven has got a lot of explaining to do on Thursday night. Somehow , he, Rodwell & Scott survived the abomination that was last season, but fans & investors won’t be so forgiving this year. L1 is absolutely soul destroying, and nobody is fooled by this bollox about marginal gains off the pitch and “a promotion challenge being the minimum requirement” (Rodwell’s words - on it). No doubt the SMT are on top wages & a nice rake off, which thanks to their incompetence they have zero likelihood of achieving.
Methven, Rodwell and Co are the real owners. Brener and Friedman are just providers of a loan - at some point, they will want their money back (with interest) The only reason to hide the company offshore, is that your fanbase can't decipher what is going on.
In my opinion, the best thing that can happen to Charlton is that Methven and Co balls up so badly that Brener and Friedman refuse to loan them anymore, and then have to take control themselves!!
The yanks stepped in with outing Appleton, and that was only 6 months into their reign, they'll be back again soon. If we do not go up this season Mary, Mungo and Midge will be feeling the heat.
Interesting that Dubai Addick has popped up today - to put the blame squarely on Nathan Jones. Apparently the SMT has given NJ everything that he wanted. The only question I have is whether Charlie Methven texted Dubai this morning, or e mailed him ?
