squareballRick Everitt famously urged Charlton fans to boycott ST purchases...before it emerged he had taken advantage of the early bird discount and renewed his own. I have bought a ST this year, simply because the loyalty points make it far easier to buy away tickets. Plus I wanted to support Bowyer for the brilliant job he did last season, and continues to do. But for as long as I have a hole in my backside I will despise this owner & his flunkies for the damage that they have gone to this club. Anything that anyone does to force his tenure to a close is very welcome.

Royston - congratulations on getting another anti Roland thread through under the radar. It would seem that once again you have misjudged the sensible mindset of people on here though. It cost my mate £16 to upgrade a child's ticket on Wednesday. Let's say there were 100 "fans" who came through illegally that's £1600 lost to the club. Ultimately I'm sure it's not RD who looks at the day to day figures, but some one is likely to add up 2+2 and decide that is 32 people that will not be employed by the club that night, who will be deprived of wages, creating longer queues at the outlets, less people in the ticket office and less stewards etc. RD will have decided what he is prepared to lose, the victim is not him, but other fans and LB's budget. Still continue with your self delusion. A wildly dramatic second paragraph. And Royston's comparison with Fred West isn't. You two need to get a life - or at least a room

I notice you haven’t answered the question about why you took a free match ticket off Duchâtelet? Come on...

That’s categorically wrong mate. In the same way that thousands of fans have boycotted the Valley to deprive Duchâtelet of money, many others have decided to attend, support the team they love, and still deprive the Belgian helmet of dough. They are heroes. Also “thousands boycotting....” 🤔 I think there are 178 at the last count..... 4k lost season ticket holders last season. 7k at many games last season and beyond.

In the same way that thousands of fans have boycotted the Valley to deprive Duchâtelet of money, many others have decided to attend, support the team they love, and still deprive the Belgian helmet of dough. They are heroes. I cannot avoid the suspicion that this is a provocative wind-up from an intelligent man whose opinions are sought and respected at high level. There are shops and pubs that I would like to use but avoid for one reason or another. It is my choice and I either get what I want from elsewhere or do without and find other things to do with my time and money. If I were to enter any of these establishments and steal from them, my excuse that I hate the owner or some other aspect of the operation and am carrying out a one-man guerilla campaign would not hold water. Theft in any form is seen as acceptable or unacceptable, according to conscience. My conscience would not allow me to steal. If others think thieving is an acceptable way to operate, good luck to them but a majority of people whose thinking is compatible with my own will despise them for it and happily see them punished. Respected? That's made my day.

observerIf you lived in a remote village and was starving, and the only shop for 100 miles was owned by serial killer Fred West...what would you do ? 1. Pay Fred West the full price for a loaf. 2. Starve to death on a matter of principle. 3. Nick the loaf off Fred West while he’s not looking. Option 3 is justified in such circumstances, and that’s what many hundreds of decent Charlton fans are currently doing to Duchâtelet. Absolute crap, nothing to do with getting one over Duchatelet. Of course it is, would you go for a beer with a geezer that shagged your wife?

Also “thousands boycotting....” 🤔 I think there are 178 at the last count..... 4k lost season ticket holders last season. 7k at many games last season and beyond. Stop rattling in on about the same shit day in day out, hijacking every cunting thread to force you opinions on people. If this carries on Elfs we are going to have a parting of the ways because all you bring to this forum is negativity I'm sorry. I have been lowed low for 10 days with an giant retinal detachment, the local hospital missed it, I was misdiagnosed and by the time I was sent to Liverpool for an 2 and a half hour operation to save my sight it was too late for the macular which was already gone. I will get some sight back in my left eye but nothing like it was. This is what you call the real world, reality. If Duchatelet is all you have worry about then you are lucky.

I did support you and Elfs coming back, but any humour you did have is lost in your fixation with one man. I suspect you are both on borrowed time now.

I am pleased that you did not lose your eyesight. I thought we were all getting on well and there was plenty of traffic here. I have enjoyed the debate.

Really sorry to hear about your sight problems Reams, I know about the fears with that. I hope you have a good and speedy recovery mate. And yes, it should help put into perspective, what is important and what is not.

Also “thousands boycotting....” 🤔 I think there are 178 at the last count..... 4k lost season ticket holders last season. 7k at many games last season and beyond. That is so 2016! ST sales are today at 10,000 and there are an additional 6,500 Charlton fans at every game compared to this time last year - rational conclusion: many fans chose not to go to League One but are back after their Wembley experience. They love Charlton and they are back to the extent that the cheap seats are sold out every week. As Reams has pointed out with his real life experience there are things that actually happen that matter. Births, deaths, marriages, christenings, new jobs etc. People come on here to discuss the football and the finances of CAFC rather than obsess about Koc, Nego and Reza or how we were relegated four seasons ago. The point is that things change in life and things have definitely changed at CAFC - my family have been at every game this season and once more it's a bit special. So perhaps you can stop belittling our club and anybody that supports it, who wants the team to do well. You might want Bows to do a Baroni and watch the whole thing fall over but the rest of us want the club to keep progressing. And reamsofverse , hope this is sorted - happened to two of my brothers in law - one with a good outcome and one not so good. wish you all the best.
