Your reply says it all - you didn't read the full text which noted that whether we felt he had failed himself or had others fail him he was due some respect. You obviously don't believe that is true and your small mindedness disgraces you.
Glue your false teeth in before you start hyper ventilating. Before you get on your hind legs to dig me out, please get your facts right. Here is your original post again. Your analogy referring to illness and death about a guy on a SIX FIGURE salary who had three months left on his contract, was a ridiculous one IMO. It is the sort of facile emoting which also brought thousands onto the streets in tears when Michael Jackson died. Only this time, nobody has died. All that has happened is that an already wealthy man who has not performed that well this season has got even wealthier. A lot of fans would not mind CP's salary pay off. As for the comment about most fans having a tear in their eye, not unless there were lots of flying ants about in London yesterday.
you'd have to say, "whats the point?" - the boo boys got their way. we'll now just be a bog standard 3rd tier team with ever changing players with names none of us can pronounce. we'll not be "charlton" charlton anymore, just another club. substandard liege.
I've said it a few times now....AFC CHARLTON!!!! not like immediately, but once we change our kit to Purple and change to Standard Athletic... then I'm up for it
Another blind inaccurate post. News Shopper poll (I don't know how many respondents in the poll) "Were Charlton right to sack Chris Powell?" 15% YES 85% NO http://www.newsshopper.co.uk/sport/..._Powell___sparking_supporter_anger/?ref=mmssp They may not all have tears in their eyes but the feeling is strong.
Ok, as we are all clutching at straw polls, I spoke to 4 Charlton fans yesterday - I am father to two of them - and not one of them gave a toss about Powell's sacking. I make that 100% support
so when the 13-15000 sing chrissy powells red army tonight, will you take that as 100% support too? - cos we wont be hearing whatever you sing in such numbers
Large amount of fans were singing Chrissy Powell's red army at Sheffield United, that was the game I turned on him after his negative tactics are going 2-0 down, but I wouldn't say I didn't give a toss. And Vol, 2 of them being your kids, surely that means that your views are rubbing off of them too? Just as my dad's views on somethings rub off on me.
If you seriously think there will be "13,000-15,000" there tonight, please can you send me a small parcel of whatever you have been puffing on? It suited all sorts of fans for all sorts of Machiavellian reasons to brandish their support of Sir Chris like a shroud but face it, SIG...you lost. The stark facts spoke for themselves. 6 wins. 24 goals. Alex Dyer in his shorts. It is over
there's never going to be evidence that is comparable to say who has lost. its not something we should even have to deal with - which is the greater loss. CP wasnt backed in the championship, the new guy will be, in sorts. you cant compare that. we've now lost the charlton feeling about the club. you think 13-15 is an over exaggeration, wait till next season chap! when they announce 7-8000 and you know half of them aint bloody there. will you still be shouting about 100% support then? just irked me yesterday, there i was driving home and then i see you celebrating outside the dole queue. takes the p1ss
Pathetic attempt to substantiate yourself and clear identification of your small minded inability and lack of generosity. Yes he may have been on a "six figure salary" but to quote the late Bob Crow who was similarly challenged by the small minded he was "worth it" As I have to put it in simple words for you the analogy was that: whether you thought he had lost it as a manager or like many on here believed that he was a capable manager who was dealt a bum hand, we all have great memories of him as a player who gave everything for the club and his departure is not something to be triumphal over. If you do not even recognise his contribution as a player then I do not believe you can call yourself a supporter. I do not know whether you will make an appearance at the Valley tonight, your work load in the house permitting, but you appear to support some form of protest against the Belgian, but do not appear to have said what. Any ideas or are you just a theatre critic in disguise. I must be getting angry to quote a Millwall supporter.
CP must be remembered as a fine player and a decent manager who brought us many wonderful memories. He should have left with Kermit and Stephens, though. No one would have blamed him or doubted his commitment. I'll follow his career with great interest, but my energy is now focused on our club and how we move on from this sorry mess.
Here, here! Although when the Liege players all start tonight I'll be booking my ticket for the Riga out train
