Charlton protestors have been urging fellow fans not to purchase new season tickets in their continued protest against the ownership.

The tickets went on sale on Monday, March 27, but the protestors want to hit the owners where it hurts the most.

Fans are furious at the Belgian owner Roland Duchatelet and the current board as they believe they are “unfit to run the business”.

A spokesperson from The Coalition Against Roland Duchatelet (CARD) said that they are eager to get new ownership.

He said: “It is important any buyer understands that the current board of Duchatelet, chief executive Katrien Meire and former chairman Richard Murray is toxic. There is no case for continuity.

“In our view, Meire has shown herself to be unfit to run the business and Murray’s consistent defence of this regime over its three years of failure has utterly destroyed his credibility. Their continued presence risks poisoning any reconciliation process.”

CARD will also be staging a joint protest with Coventry City fans next month, who are also annoyed at their own owners Sisu.

The protest will be held on Good Friday, April 14, at the game in the Ricoh Arena, with further details to be announced closer to the date.

CARD has also announced its intention to stage a day of action at the final home match against Swindon Town April 30.

A spokesperson said: “We plan to take back The Valley on the final day of the season and are asking fans who have been staying away, whether in protest or frustration, to return and send a resounding message to the next owner about what Charlton can be.

“This can be accomplished inside the ground or outside, for those unwilling to buy a ticket.

“Our passion is Charlton, not protesting, so CARD will end when Duchatelet goes, but like others we are keen to put our energies into supporting new ownership and a new management team in repairing the damage of the last three years.”
