He may not have ‘future involvment’ With CAFC, but he could surely have introduced investors to a CAFC takeover - which could be seen as a conflict of interest hence why leaving
I read it more as THEY will have no further involvement, not "he."
Further tweets from Ebbslfeet said along the lines of “peter has said there is nothing to do with Charlton”
Peter was in hospital around October time maybe it is related to that.
I was thinking this. Didn't he beat cancer recently.
As much as I'd love PV to be involved with the new takeover, I'd rather he just concentrated on his health so he can help us cheer along the team in this (hopefully) more positive, post RD era once
Just stumbled onto this thread. Bearing in mind the limited information we have, I would suggest we don’t speculate and we respect Peter’s privacy. Over and out.

If he has left due to illness, whoever issued the statement deserves a slap as it was always going to raise speculation and if it is the case then their club has I think a care of duty to clarify things pretty dam quick.
That said, I don't think speculation on a chat site invades anyone's privacy.
Personally I do not think he will play any future part with our club, but I do think he maybe employed to advise perspective purchaser's.
I guess there are a handful of CL members who do know the true reason (s) as they are closer to him.
If they choose not to share those reasons then they will have good cause.
That's good enough for me so I'm happy either never to find out or find out in the fullness of time. If it's personal then any speculation is an invasion of that privacy.
Just imagine if you had a personal issue deep enough to result in the loss of your job. Would you really be ok with a bunch of strangers second guessing what your issue is?

Were my issue that serious, i just don't think I'd give a shite.

While I broadly agree with you CA, if you have a high profile job (which is well rewarded 99.9% of the time), then there will always be speculation, it comes with the territory.
I would have thought that PV himself might have issued some kind of statement by now even if it was just to confirm that it is a private matter. Surely he doesn't enjoy people speculating on his health on social media.

I think this has all come from a statement that has not been done that well, if it had said for personal reasons etc, there would possibly still have been speculation but not as much.

but unless I'm mistaken the only statement to date has come from Ebbsfleet football club and not PV?

Yes I am suggesting that the Ebbsfleet one should have said something along those lines.

Maybe, just maybe PV and the Ebbsfleet media guy discussed it and this was what PV wanted.
I don't know why and what PVs reasons are but he's said, via Ebbsfleet, that it is unconnected to CAFC.
That's good enough for me.
If Peter wants to tell us more he will either directly or via his many friends at the club.
It doesn't matter what his role was or how much he was paid, it's nothing to do with us.
The lack of a thank you to PV for his service and hard work etc. Suggests that it maybe wasn't the happiest of partings.
Pooley moves to join the Fleet board
Ebbsfleet United announced tonight that former player Dean Pooley is to join the club’s Board of Directors. Pooley, 31, will also take on the role of Executive Vice Chairman replacing Peter Varney who will step down from that role immediately after next Saturday’s FA Trophy match versus Warrington Town.
This change in the club’s structure will also see Peter Varney step down as an EUFC director.
Chairman Abdulla Al Humaidi said, “I would like to thank Peter for his management of the club over the past five years during which period much has been achieved. I am delighted that Dean has accepted our invitation to join the EUFC board. He has played a key role in the development of our new main stand and has increasingly played an important role in other key aspects of our business and it is important for us to have succession policies in all areas of our business going forward.
Dean Pooley said, “I never imagined when I retired from playing that two years later I would find myself in the boardroom of a football club that I have such a passion for. I can’t wait to get started in my new role and I would like to think I can bring a fresh pair of eyes to the way we operate across all areas of the club and I have so many ideas I want to put into practice to move this club forward.
“I played with Daryl McMahon and we have always had a close working relationship and that will also help me enormously in my new role.”

“I would like to thank Peter for his management of the club over the past five years during which period much has been achieved."
Hardly a glowing endorsement for five years of hard work. Indeed similar statements are made by every Chairman when they decide to part company with their managers.

I thought the same when I first read the statement and before it speculated that the parting of ways was for personal reasons.

I'm with Algarve, as long as it is respectful and doesn't delve into any of PV's private life.
Angeldust who is known to be reliable has said that he was asked to step down as they found out about his involvement with us and the takeover, but wasn’t able to verify.
As has been said above I (kind of) hope it’s a case like his rather than health related, hope all is ok.

It would be good if Reg could clear this up one way or another.
Strange because the timing is such that it would obviously be linked but I hear it is not related to us....which is a shame
Edit. Add PV the best and hope he is in food health.
