Redhenry understands too, which is good enough for me.
He said he’d heard this morning, which could just mean the person tht told him picked up a Mirror. I’d love it to be true but the story looks like a page filler.
haha not the case
@Redhenry can you give any more info on what stage this interest is at?
With all due respect to RedHenry, I’m sure he hears quite a lot of stuff in regards to players that filters throughout the club and training ground and it’s usually spot on, but the top level stuff id imagine only a couple of people really know what’s happening.
The Usmanov stuff has been mentioned by people at the business end, rather than as gossip at the training ground or around the club, as something that had been explored by Murray via David Dein. However, there was nothing to suggest it had gone anywhere, i.e. that Usmanov was actually interested, which is why I have never written about it.
Stories come about in all sorts of ways, but I seriously doubt a national newspaper would publish this about a high-profile figure in the game just because it had been speculated about on Charlton Life as has been suggested. That doesn't mean it has substance and will happen, but it is out there in the real football world, which is quite small. There is also the Keith Harris connection at Everton.
Have we ever been linked to high profile figures in national news before? Just saying.

Just has an air of ‘rich man sells shares in London football + London football club up for sale = story’ about it
And Darren Lewis has got previous for talking complete ballbag.

Keeping my feet firmly on the ground on this one... Hope it's true but let's all remember even if it is, he will still have to deal/negotiate with that lunatic Duchatelet and his ludicrous demands which would be a test for anyone.
Why would the rat appoint Lee as full time manager if a possible deal could be round the corner
1. Appointment agreed in advance with any potential new owners. 2. To help appease the EFL who will probably push back on the fact that there is (was) no permanent manager.

He had been caretaker for 6 months; under employment law, once in place for six months your T&C's are as per any full time employee, so it really was a no brainer and no big deal to make it permanent.

Why not? Bowyer was already contracted to the end of the season. It really doesn't make a huge difference, even if there was a pay rise involved, which can't be assumed. Plus Bowyer now has a reasonable chance of retaining the job under a new owner anyway. On the other hand, it closes down the discussion about him being "caretaker" and is positive for Bowyer. If it was a longer contract it might mean something.

Don't know.
Don’t know if you can give us anymore info or don’t know any more info? Please can we put this to bed by lunchtime and get back on with the pilchard puns?

USMANOV

Welcome to Charlton.
I don't think its him BTW, the real one has more blemishes on his skin.
