    He goes she goes.
    So you're now calling for Chris Parkes to leave the club just so his wife will leave with him. A man that has given many years of loyal service to this club through numerous different ownerships!

    Classy, very classy mate!

    Remember both of them are Charlton supporters as well.
    Remember his son and his wife being very classy to us fans as he sat by and did nothing. GET OUT WITH THE REST OF THEM
    So what would you do if your parents were being verbally abused big boy?

    It's such a CL cliche to say that Chris Parkes is 'Proper Charlton' but as I understand it, the reason he kept quiet is that he agreed with Sue and their foul son.

    Not in the slightest. I'm saying she has gone far to far beyond what is acceptable and no effort has been made to stop her from doing this. It's made his position untenable in my view. I'm not calling for his head I think he is a good guy but it's gone to far.

    If you read what she said on her private Facebook group today (before she deleted a whole load of posts to hide what she'd said) it was unbelievable and shocking given the situation. You'd have thought she would want to build bridges rather than launching loads of insults at fans and telling everyone how she's better than them.

    Believe me she's abusively messaged me privately on FB after I've dared to disagree with her opinion.

    Believe me she's the one with no class. As I said I like Chris but Sue has pushed the line too far and too many times. It's not acceptable for the wife of someone in that position to be doing so. I look forward to the day when she gets her comeuppance.

    I'd probably not talk about gassing fans, Al. I doubt you would either.

    Oh, and as someone who was called a "c*nt" by him for responding to a tweet telling him to "tone it down", I'd like it if you didn't accuse me of verbally abusing his parents too.

    Cheers.

    Hang on a minute.

    Mrs Parkes should have kept her mouth shut given the position her husband holds at the club.
  • He has shouted at a member of the B20 for holding a protest banner and saying KM should quit. He agrees with everything his wife says hence why he never told her to shut up.

    I don't agree with all the personal abuse directed at certain people, but Sue Parkes shouldn't have thrown herself so aggressively into the argument especially as it looks bad on her husband. Their son might have been upset with all the moaning about his mum but his rants on Twitter were horrific and he gave those trying to help him vile abuse.

    It's no surprise if true, if you know a business is for sale it's common for a number to jump ship before pushed.

    I was referring to the Uboat post.

    Anyway, what is your opinion of Mrs Parkes' verbal attacks on Charlton supporters given her husband's position in the club?
  • In any other industry if the wife of someone in his position was regularly on social media claiming to know things about the inner workings of the organisation including sensitive information he would have been formally warned and then sacked long ago. There is no way I would get away with it in my position.

    I'm not saying he should be sacked but it's gone on far too long.

    Canters old son, Al the apologist will never agree with you.

    But you are 100% correct.

    Clear out from top to bottom wouldn’t go a miss at all. Couldn’t care whether anyone’s a nice person if they’ve played a part in the shit state the clubs in, the shit relationship between club and fan etc which parkes and his Mrs have then they can go do one as well.
    It's not about anyone being a nice person, prior to the regime, Chris has given this club many, many years of loyal service and if he was crap at his job, he certainly wouldn't have lasted so long would he.

    Let's hope that whoever you work for as well as many others on here, never get taken over because according to you if would be absolutely fine just to clear everyone out!

    Incredible!

    Are you going to answer my question?
  • probably being stupid but I don't quite understand why these people are resigning.

    not sure what kind of contracts they are on (whether they are employed by CAFC or employed by just Duchetelet) but wouldn't they still have a job once the takeover happens? then if they are sacked they would get some sort of financial compensation? unless they are being told to go as part of the takeover?

    It's not uncommon and I've done it before.

    You weigh up;

    1. How much is the redundancy/severance package. These days a lot are statutory which isn't worth a great deal
    2. Depending on 1. a couple of months out of work and it's gone
    3. Always easier to get a job when in a job, you have bargaining power.

    I think, as mentioned on another thread, that it may be a pre requisite stated by incoming owners, therefore RD would have paid them off, but it looks better on cv to say resigned.

    Really, Al?

    We're talking about a football club FFS. The metrics that @Greenie Junior mentions are solid.

    - customer relations
    - debt
    - poor performance on the pitch

    Whilst Chris certainly can't be blamed for the last two, you have to be completely blinkered yourself to ignore the damage to the fanbase, and subsequent friction within the fanbase, that occured due to Sue and her claims of having internal knowledge.. via Chris.
