Just to say, I was talking to a football agent about 2 months ago who stated that Boothroyd was certain to take over at CAFC, apparently it was a done deal then...strange if it comes true, apparently he predicted the resignation of Pards from West Ham in the summer too...but we'll see....wise old man or just Billy Bulls***
Can't believe anyone would be happy with Boothroyd. He's got Watford in almost exactly the same position as us and his track record is no better than Pardews. If Pardew goes he needs to be replaced by someone better or there's no point in making the change.

AILING HORNETS AXE BOOTHROYD
By Mike Walters 4/11/2008
Wobbling Watford pressed the panic button last night and sacked boss Aidy Boothroyd.
Boothroyd, 37, who won promotion to the Premier League, reached the FA Cup semi-finals and qualified for the play-offs in his three seasons at Vicarage Road, was fired after three consecutive defeats left the Hornets above the Championship drop zone only on goal difference.
But Charlton are ready to offer him an immediate return to management. The Addicks are poised to sack Alan Pardew after their disastrous start to the season
Watford's 4-3 home defeat by Blackpool on Saturday was the last straw for a trigger-happy Hornets board, who are looking to sell the club for £30million - and who could face a vote of no confidence at an extraordinary shareholders meeting next month.
