Absolutely, and posts on a forum where things have allegedly got very personal.Oh Bloody hell ….you have only been the Moderator on here for 3 days.
This is a personal best, even for you
Why don’t you just post on your own forum with you as the only member on it …although you’d still probably end up falling out with yourself within hours.
It is getting a bit ridiculous now.
If you get upset so easily by other people’s opinions - which you do - forums are not for you.
Your Twitter accounts are on and off like light switches as well.
Not much of a surprise you are in the theatre with the dramatics.
For every one player that succeeds, many more fail.
The geezer has spent four seasons playing in a toilet standard, fact.
So what if you have WATCHED the geezer, congratulations
.As an aside, I have seen Charlton play at around 140 grounds and in seven different countries.
You need to wind your neck in.
Apologies for the comment about the fitbae but I wanted to emphasise a point.
It’s like de ja vu all over again.
Every season start it’s the same, buy a load of crap, sell your best players, let the suckers in the stand fall for it. Repeat.
I’m glad NJ is a man of god he is gonna need all the help he can get. Although probably best to say in this day and age, there are other gods available.

He's been brave with getting rid of May. The cynic in me says he funded our recruitment.
If the new guys do not hit the ground running and the team do not get off to a good start the crowd will turn.
Apart from @Dick Plumb1 and Ivor's apologists that is.
NJ made a brave call that has a expiry date till Xmas. If we are not top ten by then that decision will bite him in the arse and even the west stand evangelists will be calling for his nuts on a skewer.
Reality over happy clapping fans.
If Jones gets anymore players from Luton perhaps we'll be called Charlton Town.
At this level Jones was an excellent appointment, but I get the impression he is like marmite.
Interesting times.
The only game I've watched recently was the Palace friendly and we looked a well organised team(s). NJ said earlier he wanted all the new signings in by the end of June nobody promised he would and he’s probably disappointed not to. This season is literally make or break for Charlton. If this setup fails where do we go? We'll have even more debts, and does anyone really believe there's a megarich owner waiting in the wings to buy the club and ground and fund a charge up the divisions?
Well that’s ok - I like marmite, I’ve also said several times that this was never going to be a quick fix - I’m not going to be pissing my pants over the signings nor slitting my wrists ….. patience dear boy !
What should fans be 'entitled' to hope for this season?
Better than 16th
Top half
Top 8
Play-off place
Automatic promotion place
And are we going to achieve any of that without May & Dobbo?
I'd settle for Top half I guess
with the way things are at present.

"Entitled" to hope for promotion. "Expect" we'll be a hard team to beat, whether we win or draw games depends on whether we have replaced Alfie's goals, but our defense should be more solid.What should fans be 'entitled' to hope for this season?

On the subjects of positivity and negativity among fans on this forum;
Naturally we'll all see things differently.
As a member of the negativity camp, my outlook has been forged by ten seasons of misdeeds and abuse from various bad owners towards fans. It is now going to take a lot of real evidence of good faith and improvements to break down my wall of cynicism.
But fans have the right to feel positive if they want to at this time, just a few weeks before a new season kicks off.
It is a magic time. I recall when I felt like that myself. Ticking the days off until the first match-day, going through all the rituals on the day...
There is room for both these outlooks here on Not606 I think, and they can be expressed without the need to run holders of the opposite view down.
In my view nobody here deserves to have their posts tagged as ridiculous, but neither is it necessary to disparage what members here might do on other forums. Or bring up the moderating issue.
@Dick Plumb1 taking that on was not a perk or a reward, he did it to help the forum.
I don't feel it has anything to do with any of the disagreements we've had on this thread.
Let's try to keep it reasonably civil chaps
Myself included.
