Now I know most of us will care little about a club from SE London. But a friend of mine is a season ticket holder at the Valley of the last 20 years, and he and the fans have been getting shafted by Roland Duchatelet and his crony Katrien Meire for a few seasons now. There's plenty in the press about their attitude towards the fans as "consumers" and essentially using the club as a tax write off. Scroll down the linked article for a quick summary of caddish ownership: http://www.football365.com/news/the-importance-of-football-protest
In the summer, in their infinite wisdom, the FA invited Meire to join the FA Council. This has outraged not only Charlton fans but the football community in general, seeing as this is person with little to no knowledge or respect for the sport, and should not be allowed to represent it.
As such, my friend has asked me to sign the linked petition to have her removed.
I'm happy to sign it, as I'm an old school proponent of football having integrity. If you feel the same, go ahead and clicky
