Charlton Fan Here. 13:03 - Sep 17 with 2271 views | webbo | Hi folks. Some years ago I remember the cup game played at the Valley between our clubs. Events around that day convinced me what a terrific club you are, and your fans that day were superb in the ground and friendly outside. I write today because I am alarmed at the news that Matt Southall is anywhere near taking an interest in Rochdale. Southall came within a hairs breadth of destroying Charlton, whilst here he still did a lot of damage that has a knock on effect even now. Debate, research, weigh things up, have a think, but then I implore you to do all in your power to prevent your fine club falling into his hands, even a little bit. Deadly seriously resist with all your might. | | | | |

Charlton Fan Here. on 13:12 - Sep 17 with 2195 views | SuddenLad | Cheers, Webbo. We're not new to this, it's been a hard fight for the last few months as we tried to fend off an attempt from some Essex Cowboys to take over our club. That failed after a strenuous effort from some dedicated, knowledgeable and determined people. After what happened a few miles away at Bury, we're all too aware of the dangers. Southall and his entourage will be fought and resisted with as much vigour as the last shower of charlatans were. Statements from the EFL and Rochdale AFC an hour ago, seems to suggest that no such transfer of shares has been notified to either party, nor is anyone aware of it. As far as the supporters are concerned, we will do absolutely everything in our power to prevent it. We HOPE, that the EFL will be 100% supportive of us. Thanks for your concern, advice and continued support. | |

And just to add to the above, in May 2018 when we beat Charlton 1-0 at Spotland (with the famous Joe Thompson goal) to stave off relegation from L1, your fans were superb that day After the match, most stayed on to applaud both your own team and also ours Thanks for the notice about Southall; as SL says above, we're more than up for the fight | |
