Charlton to repay fans who attended 5-0 defeat at Huddersfield
Wednesday 13 January 2016 16:15, UK
Charlton captain Johnnie Jackson has revealed the club's players intend to reimburse the supporters who attended Tuesday night's 5-0 defeat at Huddersfield Town.
The heavy defeat to Huddersfield left Charlton in 23rd place in the Championship, three points from safety and without a win in their last 10 matches in all competitions.
On Saturday, Charlton were dumped out of the FA Cup by League One Colchester United and Jackson insists the club's fans deserve better following their latest disappointment.
"We are going to reimburse fans who travelled up to support us. I will arrange this with the club + they will let you know how to be refunded," Jackson said via his official Twitter account.
"I know words are cheap but on behalf of myself and the players, I want to apologise for tonight. It was disgraceful and you deserve better."
Charlton interim head coach Karel Fraeye failed to fulfil his media duties following the loss at the John Smith's Stadium, increasing speculation over his future at the club.
