The future of the supporters' director

This may not seem to be the most pressing issue facing the Addickted with a key maych looming at Southampton on Saturday. However, there is evidently some sort of debate going on and the views of the current occupant of the role, Ben Hayes, can be found here: Hayes

The supporters' director is always going to be constrained by the requirements of company law and commercial confidentiality. They are more of a fans' ombudsman than a decision-maker. However, they have been part of the 'package' that has made Charlton distinctive. Like any other role, how it is working needs to be reviewed from time to time. Ben would certainly appreciate hearing the views of fans.
