    He’s just making stuff up.

    Do the maths = 8,000 bums on seats = less revenue.

    What insipid garbage they turn out over there.

    If dribble like that came out of your bum during your early morning visit to the lavvy, you'd regret looking before you pulled the chain.

    "Sixth place only gives us a 25% chance of promotion, but it would be our best finish for five seasons. And it would be a big step towards the two points per game required for automatic promotion next time".

    Today's offering from Ridiculous, a bar lower than his crombie<doh>

    Even if 6th place in League One were to be our best finish for five years, what does that say about those years?

    Only that they were the worst five years in living memory for Charlton Athletic.
    Far worse than the exile years under Lennie, when most fans understandably stayed away but the team earned huge pride and respect.
    There was a light at the end of that tunnel.
    Now there is none.

    Even though we had no ground the club and the fans were united.
    Never does Ridiculous criticise, he does not even give an optimistic view, just states the obvious.
    He could write a 250 page book and still say f*** all.

    With the SMT reduced to looking down the back of the sofa for coppers, low energy bean counter C. Hawtrey (Seriously Red) has posted a couple of seasonal gems overnight.

    Regular admirers of Charles will know that he posts this sort of gaslighting nonsense in January every year, to excuse failure.

    So, according to CH, now is not the time to examine the SMT’s performance :emoticon-0148-yes: (even thought critics might suggest Methven & Scott have once again underperformed, and spaffed the budget on rubbish), and …wait for it some fans want the club to fail so they can be proved right :emoticon-0148-yes: <laugh>

    This from a bloke who probably last spent on travelling away in 1967, and takes three paper straws to a home game so he can make his cup of Bovril last longer.

    "Some fans want the Club to fail" ... same old Apologist crap.

    Some fans on that forum accept that the Club will fail, and spend their days happily explaining that failure away. It doesn't even upset them.

    "Make no mistake in that we need to scout and land the right players, but some make this sound like a walk in the park. There are 11 or 12 clubs competing and at long last we're in that group. Stockport are falling away and who knows whether the takeover at Reading goes through. If not then perhaps a cheeky bid or three for their players!"

    ****
    Top six budget you fool, that should make things a "walk in the park".

    Yeh, it’s tough competing to finish ahead of the likes of Mansfield & Shrewsbury.

    The same mighty Shrewsbury that beat us in the play-offs a few years ago.

    We keep falling further and further behind and in each passing season we are becoming an entrenched division three club.

    The desiccated 6 stone emu-lookalike is now asking whether the squad even needs strengthening <cracker>

    EDITORS NOTE:

    This squad finished 16th in Division 3 last season, and currently sit 11th in the table this season. Making us the 55th best team in England.

    Yet Rod Hull’s mate says we don’t need strengthening ?

    Classic Ridiculous giving no opinion, and into the bargain leaving it open to 'justify' a s*** window.

    Charles Methven & Charles Hawtrey discuss our likely Xg in ten games time.
