Next manager rumours (Karl Robinson interviewed pg.22)
Comments

In normal circumstances I would agree, but they must have interviewed most of these before, and must have had a fair idea Slade was on the brink. Adkins at games and apparently interviewed before.Henry Irving said:Four days isn't really a long time to appoint someone in the real world, let alone in football.
It's better to get it right then rush the appointment.
Many clubs would have someone lined up already and at Charlton M Duchatelet normally has one or two already on the pay roll.
But what does the time being taken tell us?
That Slade was sacked very suddenly and without much thought or planning? perhaps. This would support the theory that is was the Belgium 20 and the Flanders 14 who made Roland crack.
I'm not sure I believe that or at least that it wasn't the only or main factor.
I think that RD was pushing Slade to take CO'L on as a coach and Slade was saying no. RD waited, as he did with Powell, for one defeat and then wielded the axe.
I don't think RD or KM knew who to appoint other than CO'L and for some reason they won't do that or at least not as yet. In a few months time he will be seen as having EFL experience and so a suitable appointment.
My guess is that they want another manager with English experience but they have to find someone who will take the job at the salary CAFC will offer and under the conditions ie Driesen and O'Loughlin they want too.
At least Slade taught me patience. Ummm.0 -
Agreed. MK Dons sacked Robinson on 23 October and they're still looking.Henry Irving said:Four days isn't really a long time to appoint someone in the real world, let alone in football.

Why does Ron Managers Voice go through my head every time I read one of your lengthy postsViewfinder said:There are many fans who appropriate our players to an imagined protected family, like caring for a child, or a dog.
You've missed it. Good football is about danger. It is heroic: about superb technical skills, guts and fire. Quick intelligence, rehearsed wit to know what your mate is doing – then score.
We are dull men. Look at our academy. Joe Piggott – many fans cosseted him. Failed. Poyet: all that crab-like defence. Failed. Callum Harriott – dribbled around on the periphery. Failed.
Children are beguiled by a step-over: Lookman does it and the fans swoon with delight. Yet, watch his pass – straight to our opponents, who surge forward.
Directly after half-time, at 0-0, we must come out fighting. Home at The Valley. Go for the jugular.
Yet, we are bogged down for 20 minutes in this dreary back-left corner while Fox makes a mess of it all – a ricochet for a disputed throw. And again.
Twenty minutes to go, and there's a long, high pass from the right to Lookman on the left – searing and true. During the trajectory, three defenders ambush him. He hasn't got a hope: our midfielders are trundling thirty yards away. Another throw-in. Our opponents are winning.
There was a lovely vignette a few years back under Powell at the Covered End. Ball flashed over the six-yard box – and Jackson, Kermorgant and Bradley Wright-Phillips dived at once and ended in an architectural towering heap, one on each – ball had gone out – and BWP, at the bottom, hammered his fists on the turf in frustration.
Josh Magennis has this vital intensity, too. Home to Coventry a couple of weeks ago. Bang! – He sprinted off to the corner, nicked the ball off an unsuspecting defender, muscled across, and scored. Ten minutes later, he did it again: set up Lookman six yards out – who skied to the upper tier.
Magennis and Holmes did not come through our academy.1 -
my guess is that they are waiting to top the offer MKDons offer steve gerrard and they will do all they can to get him in,as we know Roland never fails0

With Holmes injured he need another right winger...queensland_addick said:Has Paolo applied? He and Daisy would get on like a house on fire.

Sorry but you lost me after 'There' , what exactly is your point? The academy is shit or your simply telling us how dull you are? Maybe if the dross the management buy stepped up a bit more you would not have to be so reliant on kids learning their craft in an environment akin to the Titanic.Viewfinder said:There are many fans who appropriate our players to an imagined protected family, like caring for a child, or a dog.

They are obviously trying to manoeuvre Congo Chris into the "Interim he's not a manager, head coach position", without an official press conference, where the journos can ask him questions about his lack of experience and flimsy CV. It's just a question of when. He needs to be run out of town and back to Belgium as soon as possible, so that we can then get to Nobby Vinegar and get him out before the end of the season. I wouldn't be surprised if the dressing room jacks it in fairly soon and a few of them angle for a move in January.
Who can I contact to get a song played on the tannoy tomorrow? I fancy Zambezi by the Piranhas.24 -
I would imagine (if their plan is to insist that COL is a part of the management team) that it would be easier to impose him on a new "Head Coach/ Manager" if he is already in situ at the club.0

JFH is top of sky bet for job.1

Perhaps whoever buys Lookman could loan us his replacement, a non stationary central midfielder and a manager until the end of the season!2

Some brilliant options in there. John Carver, Sol Campbell and Alex fucking Rae!!The_President said:4 -
Enjoy that Fraeye doesn't warrant capital lettersThe_President said:1 -
You did. Reported he said he wanted a break and not intrested in Charlton. Does not mean it was true or that he has not changed hid mind as he is living in London anyway. Also only odds.dickplumb said:I thought I heard that JFH wasn't interested.
Apparently said he was being lined up in the Standard? Last night, but I have not seen the article.1 - Sponsored links:

Whoever wrote that up should be sacked. Mark Simpson should be Mark Stimson (the manager at Thurrock!!) . Calderwood has been spelt Calderood.The_President said:
A lot of them haven't even managed for a couple of years.
I guess our owners don't give a shit, so why should Oddschecker? Nobby Vinegar and COL can be backed at odd of 25/1. It's worth backing either of them for at least £10.2 -
I see Lee Clark is on the list at 25/1, he'd put a smile on our faces!!!!2

That was playing as we trooped out after losing to Boro in Simonsen's debut in 1982. First time I"d ever heard it.Tutt-Tutt said:They are obviously trying to manoeuvre Congo Chris into the "Interim he's not a manager, head coach position", without an official press conference, where the journos can ask him questions about his lack of experience and flimsy CV.
